Well this week was pretty great!
Tuesday, we went out again to Mati to help clean up the fires and we had a good time and were able to finish clearing out one person's house so they now just have to scrub it up and then start to rebuild which is cool. Then that night we were able to teach English class which went really well and we got a few people to come out.
Wednesday I got to teach another English class at the Friendship center to Refugees who didn't speak English or Greek so that was a bit interesting but I think it went well I couldn't really communicate with them so to be honest I couldn't really tell ya.
On Thursday we in the morning got to help out at the park and we made friends with the guy we were working with and his name is Jimmy and he said he would like to come to church sometime which is really cool.
Friday was then yet another great day, we met up with a guy from Africa named Prince and he wants to learn about the church and is super enthusiastic about hearing the word of God so it is pretty cool and we hope that everything goes well for him.
Then Saturday, we in the morning went to the street market to do some service and we talked with one of our friends who owns a shop and we gave her a book of Mormon and she wants to meet up and talk about it which is awesome! Then on our way back we ran into another friend at the park who we hadn't seen since we gave him a Book of Mormon but he told us that he had been reading it and that he loved it which is super awesome and we now have his phone number so we can meet up with him this week!
Sunday was then a great Sabbath day and we were surprised by the members with a big meal for everyone in the branches and it was super awesome and we had a member who was baptized a little bit ago who received the Aaronic Priesthood and that was super awesome to be able to see that and the things that change!
Today was a good day we got to walk around a bit because the metro wasn't working right but it was a really nice time and then we met up with Elders Gaskill and Albertson and headed over to a Mexican place and then a little bit later two more Elders and the Sisters showed up at the same place and then just a bit later the other 4 Elders in Athens showed up at the same place, all unplanned showing up in the same restaurant at the same time it was really funny so we decided to take a pic.
