John forgot his other shirt and only had this huuuuuge sweater!
He was so embarrased to go shirtless and said "I don’t want all those Mormon boys
seeing my tattoos!"

We went out for steak with John! |
This week was so good! We stayed
super busy, so it flew by again! We had a TON of miracles this week and just
had the most amazing week! Sooooo many great things happened!!
We went out for steak with John and
played squash with him this week. He is doing great, but still going really
slow. We had a really tough program with him, he was just so so down right now
and really frustrated and said he was waiting for a miracle. Next program, he
was totally different!! He said that he prayed “Dear God, it’s John, I’m
praying for peace and happiness, please give some piece of it to me. Amen.” and
then opened up to a random place in the scriptures and started reading. It said
that faith is something that we cannot see, but believe. I found it for him in
Ether 12:6. He was so excited to see it again! Said he felt the feeling of
peace he was asking for. Isn’t that so incredible?! He was waiting for a
miracle and he got one! He also has a memorized prayer that he says morning and
night, just two lines long. Well, he tried to say it before going out the door
in the morning and said “Go with faith"... then said "what the?" It never starts
like that, but I like it! I’ll keep it in there. Another amazing miracle!
Guess who showed up at church?!
GÁBOR!! We were sooo excited to see him and he read 2 chapters out of the Book
of Mormon! He said that he missed the way he felt with us and wanted to feel
that way again, so he read and felt that special good happy feeling again! He
recognized what it really was and asked to meet with us again this week! So
happy!
Atilla is still doing great and
after teaching him the restoration again he agreed to be baptized in March! He
has been one of the most incredible people to teach, because of the changes
that you can see in him. He was so hard and refused to pray before, didn’t
think that God was there. Now he is just so much softer, he really opens up,
has really sincere prayers and you can tell when he prays that he knows God is
there and listening to him.
We had a program with 2 Tamás's! It
was our very first meeting with them so we walked into the branch house and the
ward was doing yoga right in the entryway!! Anyways, we went right into the Restoration
and gave them both a Book of Mormon. They were both pretty quiet, but really
focusing on everything that we said. One of them asked to hear our hymns, haha
I tried to laugh it off, but he was dead serious and wanted us to sing for him,
so we grabbed one of the yoga girls that has a great voice and sang “Nearer my God
to Thee” and “I Know that my Redeemer Lives.” He took a recording and set it to
his phone ring tone. Asked if we could give him a CD and if he could buy a hymn
book and if we could meet again! He is super religious and said that he could
feel the Spirit when we sang and felt closer to Jézus Krisztus. Isnt that the
most amazing??
I was just looking at our
investigator list that we’re teaching and there are about 20 now! So so
incredibly blessed to have met all of the people that we have! It’s not because
of us, not in the slightest. It really is His work, I’m just so lucky to be a
part of it! But it really isn’t because of us! I can tell ya right now! I
know that Heavenly Father is using us. Sometimes I just think in lessons, when
I am struggling to say something so bad in Hungarian, but I know that they need
to hear it. I just think, why are these people three times my age, listening to
2 young kids who can barely speak Hungarian? It’s SO much more than us though,
it’s the Spirit they are feeling and the message that we are sharing.
Next week is Tuesday for transfers
and emailing! Pray for me that I’ll accept whatever the call is alright? I just
can’t think of leaving Győr, Have a great week!
