Sun With Teeth

With Sora Fletcher

First off, I just need to do a little shout out to Sora Fletcher. She's so awesome :D What a trooper too. Her first lesson here in Panduri was the drop lesson with our only investigator...rough... but she's always so positive. We are just loving life :) We also got a new investigator yesterday...yay

MLC - We had mission leadership Council on Thursday. It was really long, but absolutely wonderful. We have such inspiring missionaries in this mission at the moment, and President and Sora Hill, are beyond amazing!

The sun has come out! Yay! I duno what's happening to Romania's winter, but lately its been gorgeous. The fog has lifted and the sun has come out. Sora and I have been making the best of it, going to the parks and staying outside as much as possible. It's still a little chilly but the sun makes it bearable. Romanians have an expression "soare cu dinti" it means sun with teeth, for when it's sunny but a little cold.

We had this cool experience on Friday. We were chalk contacting in the park with two of the Elders and the Aviatiei sisters. Well there was this smecher guy, about our age who kept riding his bike across our plan of salvation. I told the others if he did it one more time I'd say something, and of course he did. So I yelled "Hei, ce faci?!" and he turned around and was all sheepish like "O, n-am voie?" and I was like NO! You're riding all over God's plan. Then we laughed and I asked him if he believed in God, and we were totally able to turn the contact into a great discussion about prayer and how we can ask God our questions. We ended up calling the elders over and having them get his number to meet with him. It was super cool.

 We Nashed! Nasa means Godmother in Romanian, ie. we hosted the brand new missionaries their first night. So these are my two god daughters. They're so cute!

Well... that's about it, sorry there's not much excitement this week. Just normal stuffs...

Keep the Faith!
