Wow... this has been one heck of a crazy week.
We started off with a Zone Conference in Katowice on Wednesday and one of our Area Presidency Members was there, President Kopischke. He was awesome. He told us we couldn't write down anything he said, only what we felt, and had us write down a question we would like answered during the conference and that if we would listen to the spirit our questions would all individually be answered and in different ways. It was a really cool meeting :)
On Thursday before English we had a really great meeting with a girl named Gosia. She comes to english class and is super nice. She is reading the Book of Mormon and seems to enjoy our meetings and she really listens. I asked her if it would be okay if she prayed for us next time and she said she would practice this week lol. She is great. Right before that though we found out that Elder Hillyard was randomly invited to Warsaw for some extra meeting. So we were in a threesome for a while. We also got to teach the intermediate english class which was awesome because I could actually teach something other than helping them simply memorize some words...
So we are in the first threesome of the week...
Then Friday Morning during studies, one of the office elders calls us and tells us that Elder Sheridan does, after all, have to go to England for legal work reasons. Bummer...kinda wrecked our whole day. So now it is just me and Elder Allred. Later that day we were suppose to pick up Elder Liemer our Zone Leader because he was coming in for an exchange and an interview. We waited at the Dworzec for something like an hour and a half, almost 2 hours for him...his train was 80 mins late...ugh. We got home at like 11:30 and crashed. We are now in the second threesome of the weekend.
We spent Saturday with Elder Liemer doing stuff, for lunch we went to a new place called "City Fries" all they do is sell fries, and sauces, but they have one of the coolest little tray/holder things ever, I will take a picture later. Then we also had the interview later which went perfectly fine. Then we had to yet again travel to the Dworzec and drop him off. Then we waited a bit and we were back at the Dworzec to pick up Elder Hillyard who was finally back from his meeting and exchange. He also found another girl on the Train who seems to be extremely interested in the Gospel as well! Her name is Asia and she plays the Cielo(sp?) She is really cool and super nice. So now we are yet again in a threesome, number 3.
Church on Sunday was great, President Nielson showed up rather unexptectedly for church and that was great, we had 2 investigators in church so that was good for them to hear President Nielson.
And now, as always I am out of time, but at least I was able to sum up all the threesomes I was in this weekend...it was crazy like I said. Hopefully that doesn't ever happen to us again, kinda interrupted everything. Oh well, the work goes on.
Until next week!
