THat is a wierd greeting. Wow it sounds like you are having a great vacation. That is super cool. I am not jealous of the sand or the waves. That would be cool to hit up and do but i have more important stuff to do. you know like saving souls and what not. Coolest story this week i went on exchanges with Elder Ramage. He is from pleasant grove. He is in his first transfer with his trainer, and another elder who lives with him (Elder Ensign) told me that i need to go on exchange with him, because he was having a hard time with the work and that my attitude towards the work could help him. So Elder Paschen and i set up an exchange with the Elders from the wien 3 ward and we went to work. We had such an amazing experience together. They only had one appointment set up that we could go to so we pretty much had a full day of contacting. I was ok with that. Contacting is really awesome, there is only one thing better than contacting and that is teaching. But when you teach when you contact then you manage to have an awesome time. So we contacted like crazy. his german is not that great but we just talked to thousands of people. I gave him a couple tips and we went forth. and it came to pass that we found many of them who knew not God. We found two new investigators and we made out five appointments with other people. We also met a lady on the street. I think she fell in love with me because she wanted to make us thai food and i said that next time i was not going to be working with elder ramage, and she was like no way you have to come with you can bring your compainion as well come with as many people as you want just as long as you are there. so we went there a couple days later and she wanted to learn more about the book of mormon and we gave her one in thai and then she gave us thai food. I had requested massaman curry and she was so amazed that i knew what that was and so she made it for us. That was way cool.
So this was a really cool week we saw lots of awesome success but as we learn in the scrips there must be opposition in all things. it was pretty tough this week. Lots of people been hatin on us. A lady called the police on me, because i gave her son a book of mormon. he looked like he was 24. but his mom called me up after i gave him the book and after he came home with it and she probably thought we were a demonic sect and so she called me up and freaked out on me. two guys that didnt even know us tried accusing us of just being here in austria because we couldnt find work in america and that we are just trying to sell our religion. they made so many comments about how we are so horrible and how we just force people follow what jo smith just made up. It was a tough week. but i gave my best. I gave them the chance at hearing the gospel. I opened my mouth and did what i was supposed to do and i wont quit. They cant stop me. I just keep on trucking along. i am happy. I am also hungry. i am feeling a dönner. Its starting to get colder here. the leaves are changing color and everybody is preparing for the wintery death that awaits them. I have heard that winter in wien is super cold. but dont send handwarmers i have eight thousand from last winter still. thanks for all that you do. LOVE YOU!!!!!
