Pecs Week 2

Hello Everyone!

I hope you all had a great week! We had a good week here in Pécs. I was feeling pretty exhausted for a few days and wondering if it was just starting to catch up with me since I reached half way or what. But I woke up yesterday with a cold and am battling it today as well so I think that is why I have been so tired! But I am feeling better than yesterday so hopefully it will be a quick recovery. :)

Well I don't have a ton to report this week. We had quite a few programs which was nice. We met with our investigator, András, who is on bap date. Those went well! It is really exciting helping him get ready for his baptism. He speaks English pretty well so that is nice to be able to explain some things to him in English.

Some exciting news: So President Smith goes home in July and we will be getting a new mission president. We found out a few days ago who it will be. His name is President Szabadkai. He actually lives here in Pécs and was the Mission Leader in the branch until last week. It is fun to be able to know the new Mission President already! I will be able to get to know him a little bit better too before he becomes the President. And then I will only have him for one transfer but that's still fun :).

Hungarian is coming along. It is really helpful living with a Hungarian 24/7 ;) I still have a long ways to go obviously but it is really exciting to be able to understand a lot more and be able to express myself and not have to memorize sentences or anything like I did at first. I really love this language! It is so hard but so beautiful.

We have met some people that help me to really appreciate the life I have been given. Some of the people we have met with have such hard lives. It helps remind me to count of the blessings I have! I am grateful for the family I have been blessed with. I am grateful for this church. I know it is true. It has brought me so much happiness and so many blessings I can't even count. I know we have a Heavenly Father who loves us all more than we can even understand. I am really grateful for prayer. I love that we can use our own words and have a discussion with Heavenly Father. He is always listening and He will always answer. It may not be when or how we want an answer, but it will always come.

I hope you all have a wonderful week! :)

Sziasztok barátaim! :)
