Week 99

Demirden korkan trene binmez

(The one who is scared of iron will never ride a train)

*'So Elder Bennion is my companion. He's from Oregon, has TWELVE siblings!  One of his older brothers actually served here from 2012-2014, so that is super SWEET! I really like working with him,  he enjoys the work, so I don't have to do much training haha. I've gotten pretty lucky with all of the volunteers I've been called to train."

*Will have the chance to watch the broadcast of President Nelson tomorrow--very excited!

* Commenting on news from home---

*"Thanks for sharing your experiences with me, they are true testimony builders."

*"Everything we go through, whether good or bad, is for our good; we probably can't see that in the near future."

*"We did quite a bit of hitting the streets and talking to people this week. It's pretty refreshing to doing normal volunteer work. We met a man on the metro who lived in Brooklyn for a couple of years, so he spoke fluent English and even had a Brooklyn accent. He explained that he went to so many churches and that they all confused him, so we explained the JS story to him and he was really impressed. He actually asked US if we could meet up.  We are going to try and meet with him this week! Miracles are REAL."

*Prayers for all friends who are investigating, that they will all progress

*God Speed and LOVE

Good ole Turkish greeting!

Ready to get to work!
