Well here we are again at the end of another week. Times moving super quick and it's basically Christmas already, which is super crazy, but it makes life as a missionary super fun and interesting.
On monday we met with our investigator Erzsi and she told us that she hadn't drunk coffee in an entire week, which means that she's basically totally prepared for baptism. We talked to her again about setting a date and she said that she had been praying about it and felt like she should be baptised towards the end of march. It's kind of far away, so we're trying to help her feel comfortable in pulling it forward, but she's definitely going to get baptised sometime, even if I'm not going to be here for it, which is super cool. She's so prepared.
On tuesday morning we all headed out to a childrens hospital because we are going to start doing service there every week or two. They just showed us around and we got to talk to some of the kids, it was pretty fun. After that I headed out with Elder Surdu to go to Tatabánya,. so that we could have splits with the elders there. I was with Elder Gajdos and we got to meet with a Slovakian members aunt and we got let in by a 93 year old man who's last name was also Gajdos, he ended up giving us a giant thing of sausage, so it was pretty sweet.
Wednesday was pretty normal, we just came back from Tatabánya and then I did normal missionary stuff with Elder Robinson for the day.
Thursday we had district meeting, which was super good. We also got to help one of the people who come to our english class with their family history stuff which was actually pretty fun.
Friday we had to head out bright and early for MLC up in Budapest. It was super good, we basically just talked about what it means to be a powerful leader and how we can make all of our finding time useful, it's also fun to get to catch up with everyone. After that we had to jump on a train and head to a city called Szombathely (literally translates to "Saturday place"), to do splits with the elders there.
I got to spend my splits with Elder Katics, who is actually a Hungarian from a city called Békéscsaba down in the southeast of the country. We had a good time, we did some streeting, whiteboarding and got some delicious milk.
Sunday we had our normal church and then we had to head over to Pápa to do a baptismal interview for the elders there. She passed! We got to make paper airplanes with her kids for the entire time that Elder Robinson was doing the interview, so it was pretty sweet.
Well that's the week. This week is going to be pretty sweet/hectic, but I'm not going to be emailing at all next week, so I guess we'll see how much I end up writing about it.
Viszlát!
