My Family!!
So guess what this week was quite a blessing and as you said our prayers have been answered. So i just got back from spending a few hours with Elders...well Brothers Trost and Johnson who were past missionaries here. Elder Trost was my Assistant when i first got in the country so it was really awesome to see them here and to spend some time with them. Elder Trost is awesome and brought me some whoppers!
So as you know 3 people got baptised this past saturday. It was a very hectic week for us because we were trying to get the baptisms organized while also preparing to go to Plzen on exchanges with the district leader there.

Elder Price and i have been doing very well at not only working on our spiritual strength but also our physical fitness. Both of us noticed that we were starting to "Let ourselves go" and so we have really been getting up in the mornings and getting straight to exercising. We have started running to Charles Bridge every morning which is one of the most amazing runs ever. It is so peaceful in the morning and really offers a time to relax and rejuvinate while also releasing stress through excercise. I'm so blessed to be living in the country and serving in the city that many people dream about coming to.

So we got a referral from the elders in Brno. We didnt contact it right away, when on saturday night we really felt like we should give her a call. She answered the phone and we asked if we could visit her. She said, Absolutely im so glad you called i really need some help with some problems im having with my computer. We went to see her and see ended up telling us that she had been thinking to herself that she needed some help but didnt know who to call and then she thought of the missionaries that she had talked to in Brno. Right as she thought this we called her and came to the rescue. How amazing is that!! She is now a new investigator and has commited to start coming to church. She has already given us a number of one of her friends and is calling another to ask that friend if we can come visit as well. It so awesome how well Referrals work. It is a very big key in bringing more of our brothers and sisters unto the gospel. we need to share the message of faith and divine help with our friends and family and then invite them to receive their own spiritual experiences as well through meeting with the the missionaries.
