2 februarie 2015 - Aceleași lucruri, săptămână altfel!

Is it Monday again? What the heckers. Mission life is so bizarre. We're doing SO much, but it all goes so fast! Weird. Anyway....this week we did a whole lot more of MISSIONARY WORK. Who'da thunk? This weeks highlights include working with our investigator, Lidiana. Lidiana knows that this is the church of Jesus Christ restored on Earth, that the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that it is necessary to be baptized for our salvation. So.....why hasn't she been baptized already, right? Her husband is very strict Orthodox and doesn't agree with her getting baptized. He won't even let her go to church. He knows that she's meeting with us, but that's as much as he'll really allow. This week we has a lesson about the sacrament and fasting. She committed to fasting with us that her husband's heart would be softened and that she could come to church. Although she couldn't make it to church, she did fast with us and we're meeting with her again tomorrow. She is SO ready. We're excited to keep working with her and keep seeing her progress towards baptism. Keep her and her husband in your prayers! We also did a TON of member work this week. We're really pushing to teach the members how to be better member missionaries and it's totally working! We're finding referrals and getting the members much more unified with each other and our potential investigators! We're really excited for the outcome of a couple of specific members that we're working with. Last but DEFINITELY not least, Sora Honey and I are planning a giant service project here in București! IT IS SO COOL! We're working with our humanitarian senior couple and one of our investigators who volunteers with the Red Cross to get a big clean up extravaganza event to get the Church's name out in a positive way here in Romania. It's still in the works but we're SO excited! I'm running short on time....but the church is true! Good things are happening here and it's 100% the Lord's work! I know this church is true.  :) Love you all!

This is of some hand chairs we found in the park while walking home. Do these look familiar or what, Sarah?! Haha.

This photograph is of the funniest sign that was in the tram this week. The old person drawing made me laugh so hard!

This one's not graffiti....but it's my "Art Piece of the Week!"
