Hey Everyone!
So the biggest news is that Elder Waters got here on Thursday and it is awesome having him here! When he went home for his health we were all pretty devastated! But he came back and the Lord saw it fit for him to be able to come to Albania!! So we are all super excited to have him here! I'm also pretty pumped to be training him!
We had a pretty hectic couple of days haha! His very first hour of street contacting he got to see his first "gjarper" experience! haha which is what we call a girl who flirts with the missionaries. Which I haven't seen much of my mission....hahah I guess that's good? but it happened this one time haha. Then on our second day, we had to help people move a lot of heavy stuff up and down many flights of stairs! It ended up taking longer than expected, but they needed the man power so I'm glad we helped. Then Sunday was a pretty hectic day, it wasn't much different than a usual day of church in Albania haha, but there were more people than usual just walking in and out of Sacrament and lessons haha. But it was good.
On another note, we have an investigator who is just plain awesome! He is so prepared by God, and is planning to be baptized and confirmed this weekend! We are so excited for him. His name is Martin and he is about 19 years old. He loves Jesus Christ and is so willing to follow Him and listen to the Holy Ghost. He is probably the person I have seen with the most of a "sincere heart and a true purpose". I feel so blessed to be the one teaching him! So we are super excited for that this week!
Over all I just really love our Heavenly Father and our Savior Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost. It is an amazing experience to serve a mission because we grow closer to all of them and learn how to be stronger and more loving. I have truly seen the hands of the Lord in the work, because it is His work after all. He has blessed us so much here in Tirana Fourth Ward. I know that He loves you all and that He will bless you if you try to be obedient and diligent in becoming like Jesus Christ.
Loves! Have an awesome week!!
