So it was a good week yet again haha!
Tuesday was a good day we were able to go to the Thornton's house for dinner for Elder Fasa's kinda welcome back party or dinner it was really nice and we had a really good time they are good people.
Wednesday was a good day we had two meetings, one with an Albanian lady named Alma who just loves learning about religion and said she would like her and her daughters to come to church which was awesome! Then we met up again with Veli and his family and talk about the Book of Mormon and the gift of the Holy Ghost it was a good lesson and the spirit was definitely there which was cool! Then that night at a whiteboard I met a man named Ayan also from Turkey and I taught him all about temples and families just right there in the middle of the square which was really awesome!
Thursday, was just a good day of missionary work talking with the kosmo.
Then on Friday we went to the soup kitchen in the morning and I got to know a guy named Hugo pretty well he is from Argentina and so by the end we had it worked out he would just speak to me in Spanish and I would respond in Greek and we had some interesting convos.
Saturday we went out to the market and met up with Giannis and talked about the BoM and how it answers the questions of the souls and he said he would read it and also how he really likes the church it was a bit weird cause he just talked about nature and so it was a bit confusing but good. Then we went and a dinner appointment and Hedy's house which was awesome! Then we had a lesson that night with Ayan the guy I met on Tuesday and we were able to talk about God's plan for him and it was really cool to see the Spirit bear testimony to him as we were talking you could just see in his face that he was feeling it and that he loved it.
Sunday we had a good/crazy day. So Elder Fasa met this girl named Zoe at a whiteboard a couple days before and she came to church and it was a good fast in testimony meeting but some things were said that she didn't really like and then for the last our we taught the youth and talked about receive personal revelation which we thought was going to be really good then we showed this video that I maybe the mistake of just reading about and not watching and it talked about the standards we have with movies and with drinking coffee, which don't get me wrong are not something bad, but for a first time investigator it is a bit much and so that was just the start of the digging of the whole and then my comp just kinda left me there to hang dry for the rest of the lesson (30 minutes) and not gonna lie it was a bit rough but on the bright side she said that she was going to come back in two weeks once she is back from vacation so I guess it didn't go too bad.
Then today was a good day we did a lot of cleaning and then we went to the Acropolis Museum and it was really cool.
So that was my week it was pretty exciting this week God definitely does guide his work no matter how many mistakes we make!
Σας αγαπάω πολύ!
