Family!!!!!
Oh my goodness!! It was amazing skyping you yesterday!!! It was so nice seeing all your beautiful faces and hearing your voices and just having a conversation with you guys!!!! It made my next 8 months till Christmas!!!! Hahaha!!
This week was really good though!!! It felt way long but it was super good!!! One of the days we had planned to do service for this less active in our ward Schwester Reusch and she lives as far away as you can get in our area pretty much but there is like one place further!!
And so we left that day pretty open cause it would take forever and a half to get there!! But she called the morning of and said that we
couldn't come cause she was sick! So we didn't really know what to do cause the day was wide open and we decided to look up the referral we got from the office! And she happened to live the one place further than sch Reusch haha!! But we went anyway!! So it took us an hour and a half to get to the bus stop then like 30 more minutes to find her house and she was in Mexico on vacation till June haha...but her mom said she would give her the Book of Mormon for us!! But the cool part happened on the way home!! We were walking back to the bus stop and we were talking in German together and this guy asked us where were from... he thought Switzerland... so our German must have sounded pretty good! But
we started talking and he said he's not religious but wouldn't mind
learning more!! Then we realized our bus tickets wouldn't work where we were and we had to get money for tickets so we walked to the near by hospital to try to find an atm but it was broken...But we were able to talk to the lady working at the front desk and she wasn't interested but we were able to share a message and a card with her!!!
Then we met another guy on the bus and then on the other bus so we have like 5 more investigators!!! All because one person fell out!! Weird blessings right?!!!
So it's legal to pee in public here... Like anywhere! And we were
teaching a lesson outside cause it felt wonderful!! And we were at the library sitting on the weird circle bench brick things and we were teaching Samson and he kinda stopped listening and started laughing and I turn around and there was a man JUST PEEING RIGHT BEHIND US!!!!! Like literally right behind us!! And wasn't trying to hind anything or be discreet he was just drunk and all out!! At least go in an alley way! So gross!!! Germany needs to get more bathrooms and it will fix that problem!! Or make them free!!!!! It's a simple fix!
We met with these two brother Dalintin and Babs! And they are so
amazing!! When we met with them they told us they were Muslim and said they just wanted to hear what we have to say so we taught them the restoration and really focused on prophets and the Book of Mormon and it was an amazing spiritual lesson and it was so cool every question they had we just knew what to say and they were so open and at the end Babs said "do you think I should switch from Muslim to Christianity?"
And of course in my head I was like OH MY GOSH YESSSSSSS!! But on the outside I was like well that's not up to me! It's important for you to read the Book of Mormon and pray and ask God yourself! And he was so genuine and said he really wants to know for himself if what we are saying is true!! And we were walking out he asked if we had a problem with drinking and smoking and I was like well crap! And I said yes and kinda explained it to him and he said he would stop right then and there!! How cool!!!
We went to a baseball game this week!! We saw a guy wearing baseball pants on the bahn and we thought that's not very common so we should use it as a contacting method and did and it turned out really good!!
We got invited to a baseball game that Saturday and a barbecue!! And he said there would be a ton of people there we could talk to! So we thought "well perfect"!! So we went! But there were like 10 people there and no barbecue so we only stayed for 5 minutes and left haha!! But it was fun for that 5 minutes!!! But the guy is cool and we will meet with him later this week!!
Pday was great! Sister Cressler and I just went shopping and hung out in the city!! We planned on going to a barbecue with the elders but sister Cressler wanted me to color her hair so we didn't get there is time but that's okay!! We had so much fun!! And not to brag but I did really good on her hair!!! But, then again, I had a lot of practice bleaching all the guys hair in high school hahaha!!
Well I'm doing great!! Just doing missionary work and loving
Germany!!! It was so nice seeing everyone! Even Colten, Gunner and Jordan in New York!! I'm glad everyone is doing good!! Miss you all and talk to you later!!
Love,
Sister Baker💖💖💖
