Beautiful
Budapest!
|
This is going
to the ladies house this morning! STUNNING right!?
|
This is Edit starting and signing
the 15 step non smoking program!

Well, I know I say that we had a
busy week every week, but this week was for sure the busiest so far!
We had 7 programs on Tuesday, went
to Budapest on Wednesday to have interviews with President with programs before
and after, Thursday we went to Mány to visit Edit, Friday we went to Győr and
gave a training to the zone there, Saturday there was an “open house” here in
Tatabánya, and Sunday after church we went out to a little town to see Zita. By
the end of the week, we felt like zombies, but it was an amazing week! haha
Just a little hard to keep our eyes open through all of it! There were many
prayers said this week to just please give us the energy and it was a miracle
and He always always answered our prayers and gave us energy and strength to
keep going! Hopefully, this coming week will be a little less crazy, and we
will have more time to work here in Tatabánya!
Edit is doing sooo great! She still
hasn’t heard from the hospital and after a lot of prayers, we decided to move
up her baptismal date to May 30. This is taking a huuuge amount of her faith,
as she still has an open wound on her back from surgery a few weeks ago. The
doctor told her she couldn’t get it wet, not one drop. She said that we will
find a way, Heavenly Father will help her to be baptized and will protect her.
Edit is the most prepared person to be baptized that I have ever met on my
mission. Her faith in our Savior Jesus Christ has strengthened mine and it has
been so incredible to see her progress and I’ve been so lucky to be here to
teach her about the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
János is also doing well. He
has a job now and is looking for a place to rent in Tatabánya, so he can more
easily come to church. He was so sweet and brought 1000 forint to our program
this morning to pay his tithing. We explained to him that after his baptism in
two weeks, we would be more than happy to help him fill out the form. It was a
really humbling moment for me, as he has almost nothing, but still wanted to
pay tithing. He has so much faith and trust in the Lord. He is still going strong
and doing well :)

Last week going to MLC in Buda, we
started talking to an older lady and her daughter. We told her briefly about
our church and why we came from so far away and learning this Hungarian
language. We exchanged numbers at the end and she gave us the number of her
daughter who lives in Tata. A few days ago, we called her daughter, she was SO
incredibly nice and said that she was just thinking of us and that her mom told
her all about us and she was considering calling us right at that minute to
meet! Wow, we were blown away! We set up for Sunday and she said that she would
come and pick us up and bring us to her house in a town outside of Tatabánya.
After church, she came and was soooo nice. It was great to see her daughter
Bérta again too who is 6 yrs old. She made us lunch and we had a great
discussion. She asked right in asking what is our religion and how is it
different from the rest? We explained what the Book of Mormon is to her and how
it strengthens the family. She said that she would read it to Bérta and invited
us back again. It was another miracle! It was for sure the Holy Ghost that
prompted her to meet with us. Her job is she makes jam, pizza sauce, syrups,
anything, you name it, natural with no preservatives and sells it at the Piac. She
is so down to earth and accepting of what we taught her. I can’t wait to meet
with her again! It has been so incredible, how many prepared people that we
have met in this transfer. The Lord is preparing so many of His children to
accept the Gospel! I am so lucky to be a missionary here in Hungary and be a
small part of all this!
Love you all
