Wow. 5 months out on the mission, crazy stuff! The
mission honestly has no sense of time, I might be in Kolob...it's a blast
though!!
This past week has been great! We had the Doctor who is over
all the missionaries in Europe come in with his wife to try and set up the
church insurance with the hospital. Funny story, they're from American
Fork, and are related to the Greenwoods in Lehi. Small world... anyway we
went in and translated for them and then showed them around town. They were
great! Also my companion, Elder Neumiller had to go to the doctor for a
rash so I got to standby trying not to laugh as a young nurse stuck two needles
into his rear to reduce the inflamation...We also got the doctor's phone number[as
a contact] who was a really great guy! Anyway we had some good lessons
this week and I got to have a Samuel the Lamanite experience.
Elder Neumiller and I were walking up the street past this little
cafe and something hit the wall and bounced off and rolled down the hill behind
us...we didn't think much of it, until we started walking farther up the street
and something hit the wall right next to us again and bounced in front of us
this time. I reached down and picked up a steel marble that had been shot
at us by a slingshot as we were walking past. We were very blessed not to
be hit and I realized that the Lord is protecting his missionaries now just
like he did in Book of Mormon times! It's amazing what we experience as
missionaries!
I love seeing the little miracles every week and invite all of you
to appreciate the small things in life a little bit more. We will be
happier, if we simply count our blessings! Hope you all have a great
week!
