Week 36

Hey Mom!  Thanks so much for the encouraging and loving words. So we finally moved!  Our apartment is pretty nice, other than some things that need to be fixed. My favorite part about our new neighborhood is this big awesome camii (mosque) that's super close; man speaking of which, the namaz (prayer) just started playing:) That's cool you had Stake Conference. We have district conference next week and Elder Kacher, in our area presidency, is going to be there. We will get to hear from him for a zone conference for all of the volunteers, and for a district conference for all of the Turkish members. I'm stoked! So the MF friend, he added me on FB and said for you to add him too.  So, just accept his request.  He also sent a message.  Enos is a great example.  I have that whole chapter highlighted, haha. I am so super impressed how the blue book men had so much faith for HUNDREDS of years before Christ even came. Super cool. This week we were pretty busy, but with boring things, mostly just moving.  Although, we did have some lessons that ended up really well. We are also meeting with a Nigerian man.  There are tons of Nigerians in the English group of the branch and they all live in our area.  They are all SO awesome!  They teach us all of these different African languages.  They are so spiritual and a great member presence for teaching other Africans.  They bring friends to church all the time! So the Nigerian we are meeting with and another Turkish guy are both progressing a lot and we have so much hope for them. The Turk came to the pool party and really liked it,  The one who got dunked changed his ways for the better and really is a great guy--he's here to stay. I love you, Mom! Thanks so much for your prayers and love-they help a ton. Sorry I don't have any pics this week~well I do, but none that I can share :) Dang it! Well, have a great week!
