Hey everybody!
Thanks for all of the pictures!
It looks like you all had a really busy and fun week! We also had a pretty
exciting week. I will be going back to Austria! But this time in the vienna
zone. I will be working in a place called St. Pölten and my companion will be
Elder Buckley. He is only in his third transfer now so I will be his second
companion. From what I have heard from a missionary that was trained there, St.
Pölten is just like Haag with less members. I am so excited! I love germany and
switzerland but austria feels like home because I was trained there. Plus the
food us unreal.
Church yesterday was really
hard for me though. Our branch president gave me a hug and thanked me for
working here and the other members kept saying how much they were going to miss
me. But I promised them all that I would come back after my mission.
We had another amazing lesson
with the L----s. We watched the restoration film with them and they said that
they wanted to be baptized before they watched the video, but now they REALLY
want to be baptized! We are working on organizing a place for them to watch
general conference in spanish this weekend and it should work out great.
The weather here has gotten
really pretty. It definitely feels like easter is coming now. Konstanz happens
to have a lot more people in it when the sun comes out. Strange how that works.
The parks by the water are always packed full of college students kicking
soccer balls and stuff like that. It has been making street contacting much
more effective.
Congrats to Nate and Spencer!
They will love those missions a lot. Plus they can speak spanish together when
they come home! That is cool.
I was reading a talk from Elder
Nelson from the last conference this morning. It was the one where he spoke
about the importance of physical and spiritual wellness. I really like what he
said about how the quality of our future in the eternities has to do with how
we take care of our spirits and our bodies. I have noticed that as I keep
myself healthy, I am more ready to act on what the spirit tells me, and that I
have an overall better mood.
I hope that you all have
another great week! I love you all!
Elder Eldredge
