Week 16

Hey guys!  this week was a lot better than last week.  We are teaching a guy through Skype because he lives in Cypruss.  We don't speak Greek, so we are working with the volunteers over there.  He is AWESOME!  He read the whole Book of Mormon in only one week.  He asked me some fun questions like, "where did the actual plates go?"  He even drew a map of Nephi's family's travels and guessed where they ended up.  It was Brazil haha.  All of this was even before our first lesson!  Also, two of our friends have committed to enter the "tub."  Please keep them in your prayers so that they will be ready with the time we have.  Last preparation day we went to Sultan Ahmet Cami and Kapali carsi(Grand Bizarre).  The mosque was SOOO cool! At the bizarre I bought some great stuff! We have officially starting moving to a new place.  We are getting out of our ghetto neighborhood.  We will miss our great neighbors, though (not even kidding).  Ramazan officially started yesterday.  They fast everyday for a month until the fourth prayer ends.  That means we aren't supposed to eat on the street during the day.  Thank goodness it's only for a month!  We still don't have a service opportunity, but we are looking for one-hopefully soon.  It's been pretty rainy here.  The Turks HATE the rain! They are literally scared of it and will not go outside.   Love you guys so much.  Thanks for everything!
