Week 20 - Miracles

Hallo! Begröße ich! 

 

Hope everything is going well with everyone. It is going very well here. We are meeting some way cool people and are seeing miracles everyday. In this email, I would like to share one of those miracles. 

 

In Euskirchen, since it is not too big of a city, we knock on a lot of doors in the villages around the city. This week we were in a village called Derkum. We have a small map of every city we go dooring in, and we mark where we have already doored. I gave this map to my companion, and told him to pick a spot that we haven't already doored. He picked a spot on the map, and we went there. We prayed and asked if it was the right street to door. My companion and I both felt that it was the right street. We found two, very solid potentials on this street, that live right next to eachother. We gave each of them a Book of Mormon and they wanted us to come back in a couple of weeks to follow up. After we got done dooring this street, my companion and I sat down on a park bench to find out where we should go next. We pulled out the map, and we realized that missionaries have already doored the street that we just doored. It turns out that we did not door the street that we were going to. But we prayed about it, and we felt good about it, so we did it. And we found two people (one family) that accepted a Book of Mormon and have a lot of potential to accept this message. 

 

This week was also cool because we got to see the Freiberg Temple rededication. We had a chance to hear both Elder Uchtdorf and Elder Bednar speak the Celestial Language. It was awesome. This is what it means in 2 Nephi 32 when it says that "they will speak with the tongue of angels." Aside from all of that, there was a quote that stuck out to me from this session: 

 

"Nothing will surprise us more when we get to heaven, than how well we know our Heavenly Father."

 

Just think about that for a while. We are literally His children, and we are on the Earth for a reason.

 

I am learning so much from the scriptures. Too much to tell. The scriptures are amazing, like I say every week. Elder Holland said that "the scriptures are great because they point away from themselves, and point toward Him, in whom we should put our trust, namely Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Redeemer." I can testify of that. The scriptures are true. This Church is true. Joseph Smith saw God the Father and His Only Begotten, Jesus Christ. The Book of Mormon is evidence of that. 

 

Danke für alle die Stützung! Ihr seid fantastische! Schönne Woche noch!
