I Spy, Testify!

Kellemes szép napot kívánok.

Well the weeks are still flying by as quickly as ever and it was another week full of fun adventures.

  Tuesday had us heading up to Budapest for another wonderful zone conference. Luckily this time due to the fact that we have a car and are only an hour from Budapest instead of 3 we were able to get up at a normal time and not be ridiculously tired for the meeting. We only ended up with a pretty short training, which was actually pretty nice, but in total the whole meeting went for like 4 and half hours when it was planned for 3 and a half. It was a really great meeting though, we talked about faith in Jesus Christ and Christ-like attributes for our part of the training, the assistants shared Elder Hollands talk from the most recent mission presidents seminar about using the spirit for theirs and President Szabadkai talked about finding and it's relation to baptism. The whole meeting was really good, one of my favourites so far.
  After the training we had the Kaposvár elders come down to Duna with us for an exchange which meant spending a bit of time with my old companion Elder Stringham again. I actually spent the exchange with his companion though, but it was really fun, we met with some people, did a bit of streeting (#ISpyTestify) and spent a couple hours out in the ridiculous heat tracting. Great day.
  We also got to have exchanges with the assistants again this week which is always really fun. I was able to spend the exchange with Elder Gentry, who is an absolute beast of a missionary, I always learn a tonne from him whenever we're together, because he is not afraid to talk to anyone at anytime (#ISpyTestify), he's an inspiration.
  We closed our fast at a members house yesterday and it was insane. She gave us SO much food. It was like a legit barbecue, it was so delicious. I've never had such good barbecue in this country until now, it has been very missed.
  Other than that we spent a lot of time this week preparing our two investigators to be baptised and now everything is in order and they should both be getting baptised this weekend, which is super exciting. The branch is super excited because it's been a long time since two people have been baptised on the same day here in Duna, so it should be a really cool experience.

Also as an explanation, the "I Spy, Testify" thing was our commitment from zone conference.

Hope you all have a wonderful week! 

Tégy mindig jót!

I opened my drink and it said "I already saw you in my dreams" inside it, was slightly creeped out
