Zone Training...Watched the movie "Meet the Mormons" and busy with 2 investigators

Well here it is again, the day that mothers wait for! Emailing TIME!!

Well it has been another exciting week I'm going to have to go through
it play by play!

Monday-Tuesday
We had Zone training and got to Watch Meet the Mormons!! So good!
anyone who is not a member of the church and wants to learn more about
WHO ARE THE MORMONS!! Go and watch it, you won't be sorry. I have to
say I teared up a little when they were talking about the Berlin
Airlift, because those are the same people I am serving right now, the
grandkids and great grandkids! Wow and also the part about the mom
dropping her son off at the MTC. It reminded me so much of what I went
through with my family! On top of watching that we also got to talk
a lot about planning and diligence! I was pretty great!

Wednesday
We went by our investigator NR and taught him as best we could,
because he doesn't know German and then later that evening went on
splitz with the Elders Quorum. Elder Basinger and I went with Bruder
W, he is so cool!!! I love that guy!! We met with a kid who is 24
and less active and Bruder W got us in door when his friends were
over, it was so cool! He is like a brother to the Missionaries!

Donnerstag
We made our invitations to the Munster Elders baptism on Saturday, we
were hoping to get some of our investigators to the baptism. Then we
went and met with the F family and played Easter Egg Hunt with
his smoking stuff. So for ever smoking thing (lighters and old boxs
and ash trays) we gave him american Easter candy! It was awesome and
he really enjoyed it. Later we rode to NR to drop off a invitation
at his house. Then had American Game Night at the church,but no one showed up.
We got to work on that this week!

Freitag
Went to do service at Warenkorb a ArmeKuche for people in Ahlen. We
always get free stuff mostly food. Then we tried to meet
with Frau A. but she was in a bad mood, because Friday we had a
solar eclipse. But we saw nothing because of thick fog! It was kind
of a weird day. Ended it off with the street display in Hamm where we
met RY.

Samstag
Tried to finish Weekly Planning but ended up heading to the baptism
early to help fill the font. Even though it wasn't our baptism, we had
RE and NR come and watch. Rosie came with her two sons (she is
the lady that knocked on the church door a couple weeks ago) we didn't
think she would come. Her sons were awesome though and I sat next to
them and kept them entertained. Sister Wulff was there and immediately
befriended RE. Sister W is awesome,  she is always watching out
for the missionaries because she has a son in New York on a mission
right now! She says that she takes care of us because she knows that
our moms pray that someone will watch out for us. She says she prays
that same thing will happen to her son and that some mother will watch
out for him! She is awesome!

Sonntag
Crazy day, miracle after miracle, RY that guy from the street
display came to church! When we met from the street display, he was nuts
then, talking about fighting Satan and what not! I gave him a card and
thought I would never see him again! I was wrong he called and met us
a Bahnhof  (train station)  and came to all 3 hours of church. He was dressed so
interestingly, he had tiger stripes cut out of his jeans and a sweater with
two guns that said BANG BANG, then on top of that had a NeoNazi shirt
on. But wow! He is amazing, he knows so much about the gospel and God
and he is truly a god fearing man. RE came to church and loved it! We
didn't talk to much to her because Sister W was helping her out,
which was awesome! Then N. came to church!! He got to Skype with
the Romanian missionaries and it went great he was so happy! After
church we took home RY and thought we probably wouldn't see him
again, then he called us 30 minutes later and said he wanted to meet
that night and that he found his Book of Mormon. He met us at Bahnhof (train station)
and started talking about his life and his struggle with Heroin and
every drug know to man. He said he was Muslim and that he was open to
hearing about our church and that he likes us. He  loves techno music and showed
us his dance moves yesterday! It was awesome, he even called us today
to schedule an appointment.

What a crazy week, I feel so humble to be able to find people like
RY and RE and teach them. They are truly those that were
prepared before this earth to come and receive the gospel. They may
come across different  BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER! Aren't we all
different, it doesnt matter if you wear your clothes
backward, if your a skinhead or a catholic priest. Everyone is a child
of God. everybody is searching for something and they don't know what
it is! The gospel is for all! So I would challenge everybody, next
time you see a guy or girl with tatoos and piercing and what not,
 try thinking "wow they are a child
of god just like me" try and teach yourself to love them like your
Heavenly Father loves them. Because he loves us all perfectly!

Love you all
Elder White
