Halloween!!!

Yay!

Today is Halloween!  Way fun right?  Well actually it's not really celebrated here in Germany.  It would be so much fun to be in the United States knocking on doors on Halloween night.  That would be hilarious!  I wish I could do it.  That's okay, I get to ring doorbells here in Germany instead!  It's cool that today is our P-day though.  We also will be able to bake some pumpkin bread, and hopefully do some other fun stuff as well.  We'll see!

The last week was pretty good!  It ended up being kind of crazy!  We were running around everywhere.  We were quite busy on some days.  Just yesterday, we rode a long distance on our bikes to visit an investigator in a far away town, and we couldn't visit him!  It was rediculous.  He told us we could come over on Sunday, but it ended up not working out.  Oh well, I guess it's good excercise.  That's missionary work for you ;).

The work is really picking up here! We are finding more people, we found a cool college dormitory where we talked with a bunch of people.  The students who are our ages seem to be the most open people!  They are open to accepting the gospel, and they are willing to learn more from us.  Not all of them want to continue meeting with us, but just to be exposed to the church in such a positive manner is excellent.

This coming week we have a Zone Conference, and the week after that we have transfer calls!  I can't believe another transfer is almost over!  Next transfer includes Thanksgiving, and Christmas!  The time is flying.  It seems like just the other week I was in the MTC celebrating Christmas.  Now, I am sitting in an internet Cafe in the middle of Germany! 

I hit the year mark last week!  I can't believe I'm already on the last half of the mission!  I feel like I just got here.  The time really is short.  Although, if you look at all my socks, you would think I have been wearing them for the last 6 years ;).  Your prayers are really appreciated, and I'm thankful for everything you guys do for me! 

Alles Gute!
