ΑΛΒΑΝΙΑ ΚΑΙ ΠΑΛΙ!!!

ΓΕΙΑ ΠΑΙΔΙΑ

Well what a week it has been!

So last Monday we went out to do a whiteboard and things didn't go to well I got yelled at by some crazy guy for a bit and then some guy tried to tell me to come with him to the Telestial Kingdom cause living a life of sin is just so great but I was able to share some good testimonies and just realize how thankful I am to God for the testimony that he has given me that nobody can take away!

Tuesday! we flew to Albania for the MLC and our flight got delayed and two cars went up in flames on the freeway so we got a bit delayed but it all ended well with some really good crepes so we were all good and I made friends with a lady on the airplane and she said that she was going to go and read the whole thing!


Wednesday, we had our MLC with President Johnson of the Europe area presidency, it was awesome and an amazing experience to be there we were also able to have an amazing Thanksgiving dinner for lunch which was really awesome. 

Thursday we had a great day we went and did service for a day in Albania at an LDS charities wheelchair place and we took the bus and the bus driver told us to get off at the wrong stop and so we got stranded in the middle of nowhere in Albania but luckily one of the guys had the places number and they gave them a call and they show up with 1 jeep and there are 8 of us and they just say "get in" and we piled in and left it was pretty fun.



Friday we had our Zone Conference with President Johnson and it was amazing! I love especially when he told us that to be like Jesus Christ it is pretty simple we just have to live the gospel of Jesus Christ and then we can be like him sounds simple but is so tough but it is a good goal just to always live the gospel!

Saturday I was HOME!! I got to go back to Thess it was awesome the best part was I was able to go and see Dimitri and Brother Matrapazis! They are doing awesome and it was so good to be able to go and do an exchange with the DLs up there and see the city and how things are going.

Sunday was a great Sabbath and to top it all off we were blessed with a spiritual fireside from Jenny Oaks Baker in the evening and she played with her family if you don't know who she is look her up on youtube she is a very good violinist.

Well that is my week I love you all and hope that you do amazing things this week!

  1. Elder, can you explain to me what is happening with the mission in Greece? We were living in Athens from 2007-2010 and served in the Halandri Branch. Now there is no Greece Athens Mission? But your blog says “Greece Athens Mission” so I am confused. How many missionaries are in Greece (excluding Cyprus) and what branches are open? Are there senior couples serving? Thank you for taking a minute to explain, if you do not mind. My husband and I are going to serve as a senior couple in Itsly Milan Mission leaving USA in July 2019. Buy our hearts are still very attached to Greece as well. Thank you. Efcharisto!
