Hey guys this was a solid week here in Timisoara!!
We finished the transfer really strong here as a companionship. The good thing is, Elder Kemeny and I get to do it again because we are staying together for another transfer!! So woo hoo!!!!
We had a really solid Sunday this week once again. So we only had 12 people at church, but 5 of those were people we are teaching which is the most I have ever had at church!! We had Loredana and Marius there who are our top people, but the best was a new guy we are teaching. His name is Darius and he's 19 years old and awesome!! He was met on the street and was interested in coming to church so we invited him. He came and he loved it!! The members were helping him with the hymns, he was singing along, the members helped him find scriptures when they were talked about in sacrament meeting and in Sunday School, he was participating and was loving it!! We are now going to meet with him this week and help that faith grow! He's awesome and he's one of those people you are just blessed to teach as a missionary.
We had exchanges this week with the Oradea elders and I was with my boy Elder Ward!! Yes it was a really fun day together and we got some stuff done. We had 2 weird lessons, but lessons are lessons and we also contacting many people and it was a solid day for the Lord here.
We had a bunch of good lessons, good member interactions, but probably the best part of the week was actually what happened on Sunday at church. So someone was supposed to give a lesson and they didn't show up so I gave my 3rd talk of the transfer, this time about the Book of Mormon. And when I said what I would be talking about, Sora Jurschi, the member teaching Sunday School, started to laugh because turns out she was teaching on the Book of Mormon. But my talk and her lesson fit so perfectly together that it had to be divine design from God. It was perfect for Loredana, who has been struggling with prayer and receiving a testimony of the Book of Mormon. The lesson was perfect for her as she learned about the importance of studying the scriptures and then praying in the name of Jesus Christ. When we have a lesson with her next, this will be a huge for her. It helped Darius, who has not heard anything about the Book of Mormon. He now has one and this will help him gain a testimony and grow his faith. Divine design. It's huge and it's God showing His great love for us. I love you all very much and I hope you all have a great week!!
