Hope you all had an awesome week, an awesome Easter and an awesome Pesach! I had a good Easter Sunday and had to give a talk... haha in Albanian...it went well, is what I would say if I wanted to lie! Oh and don't lie (2 Nephi 9:34 something I learned in the MTC haha). No it wasn't a complete train wreck but it was pretty rough! hahah. But It's over now and there is only room to improve for next time! Fier is awesome! It is a beautiful place! And the people are still warm and friendly! The weather was supposed to be warming up, but the past few days, except today have been really cold! haha and by that I mean sweater weather, nothing like Rexburg or real cold places, më vjen shumë keq for those of you in cold places haha. But it has been good! Only downside to the cold is it makes street contacting less successful!
We have been doing a lot of finding people! We don't have many investigators right now, because we're whitewashing, but the investigators we do have are progressing! which is awesome! We have several on baptismal dates and hopefully they'll be ready in time! But we can always move the date if they're not! We have talked to, what I think are very potential investigators and I'm hoping that the work will start to pile on, a sentence I never thought I'd say before my mission! hahah But I've never quite done a work like this!
My district is awesome! I love them so much! Each missionary (there are 6 of us) is so cool and offers something different to the table for me to learn from! I feel so privileged to be working with them! It'd be pretty ridiculous if I came out of this transfer the way I came in because there are so many growing and learning opportunities! My trainer, Elder Ostërgard is so funny! and such a hard working missionary! He's definitely the trainer I needed and Heavenly Father knew that haha.
The language is so hard! haha But I haven't been getting discouraged though, which is good, and something I really learned how to do from my MTC teachers! Who are awesome!! But my comprehension really has gotten a lot better, and so has my speaking, but it's still harder for me to speak than it is to comprehend. Some people speak super fast though! and it's hard to understand hahah! But it's improving as I knew it would :)
I guess that's it for this week. I hope you all have an awesome week! And that you will be able to recognize the blessings in your life. Everything that is good in this life, comes from God, our Heavenly Father, remember that.
Much Love,
Elder Sajmëns
