I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving this week. Mine was really awesome but we will get to that later.
Tuesday there was another metro strike so we did a lot of work just around our house and in the neighborhood. That night Elders Craig and Balser came down from Thess and stayed with us for the night.
Wednesday, me and Elder Balser went early and met up with Elder Albertson. We went and met up with President and went to get our Residency stuff all worked out. Because apparently we only have to do that if we are Americans so it was just us. After that we had interviews with President which went really well and I found out that I am staying in the same area here in Athens to train.
Thursday was a crazy day. To start we had a "Training for Trainers" meeting with all the other trainers in Greece. It was a good meeting. Then we went to the President's house for a Thanksgiving dinner. To start we did a "turkey bowl" or sort of we really just threw a football around on the street.
Then we had a killer thanksgiving dinner from Sister Heder it was really awesome.
So yeah that was a good day.
On Friday we had Zone conference and it was really a good meeting. We talked a lot about how we need to apply what we learn from meetings and stuff into our lives, that is so important. We may learn something cool but then the next day we forget about it we really need to make sure that we remember to apply what we learn everyday! (we also had letfover turkey sandwiches)
Saturday was a pretty chill day we did weekly planning and met up with some friends in the evening and actually had a conversation about religion which was cool.
Sunday was a good day. Church was good and I understood more again this week which was good. After church a member Heidi had all of the missionaries to her house for a meal which was good. It was falafel which was actually really good, and then Sushi, it was my first time with that too and I was surprised it wasn't actually that bad haha.
But yeah that was my week thanks to everyone for all of the love and support I love you all.
Love,
Elder Halverson
