Hey!!
So sehen Sieger aus!!!! Haha that
was sweet.... there were fireworks going off all night and yeah... pretty
awesome. Germany is the best. Literally. But the game was on Sunday night and
now it's P-day.... so I don't really know if the people are willing to listen
yet. They're probably all really hungover though so my guess would be no at the
moment haha. Maybe tomorrow.
Sadly we were yet again not able to
go to the zoo. Maybe someday. It's just been raining a ton lately so
everything's kinda had a damper put on it. But it's better than brutal heat, I
guess.
But this week was good. We had a
good Zone training in Jena where we talked for a bit about the history of East
Germany and its dedication/building of a temple here and what not. If you
haven't researched the church history here too much, I would definitely
recommend it, it's pretty sweet. President Monson has a book about his
experiences here called Faith Rewarded and it’s pretty awesome.
But one of the highlights of this
week was helping build and take down a super sketchy rock wall as part of a
marathon being run here in Gera. One of our members does a lot of
organizational work for city events and he volunteered our help. So one of the
things we had to do was help build this wall which was basically a 30-40 meter
high scaffolding with rock wall clamped to the front. And we built it right up
against a tree, and we had to saw off a bunch of branches. So we're all
standing on different levels of this kinda shaky scaffolding, lifting things,
using tools, sawing off branches, just like no problem. No one really even
asked us who we were. It was tight.
But this week was pretty ordinary,
but good. We've got interviews with President Stoddard this week, so that will
be good. But yeah, that's about it. I hope you guys have an awesome week!!!
Love you all,
Elder Brown
