Well this week went super fast! We had a ton on. First up, on Monday we had a surprise visitor from one of the other branches I served in so that was really fun, we went bowling, I won finally!!!!! It was close with me and Deleeuw, he beat me like 3 times when we went last time but yeah... after that we just chilled at the church, played uno etc... just you know the good old fun things. It was a really fun pday though! Much needed. That night we went to work and just did the same old... contacting!
Tuesday was really busy, we had a big skype call with all the district leaders in the mission then we had to have our district meeting right after that. After all of that we had to go home and quickly pack so we could make our bus to Zagreb. We arrived that night and had a good dinner, that was about all we did though. They also kicked some Gypsies off the bus at the border... that was interesting.
Wednesday was just working with the AP's we found some people who they can now teach which was cool, the people in Zagreb are a lot nicer than here, it was weird having people actually stop for like a second. We had our MLC meeting at 5pm and that went for a good 3 or so hours, after that it gave us a little bit of time to play some basketball! woo! the court was so dusty because it is clay and it hadn't been watered at all... we were all covered in red dust by the end, good fun though.
Thursday we had more meetings and then it was the drive back to Banja Luka, that night we also had English so we taught that which was fun, one of the guys who is our one and only beginner student is cool, we are actually going to chill out with him today so that will be fun.
Friday was just a normal day although we had a skype meeting with the Mission president and the AP's we talked a lot about prepping for our Zone Conference which is this week, we have an hour long presentation on finding so that will be interesting! Hope it goes well. After that we picked up our papuce which are some woolen socks that these ladies make, I requested to get a pair of Black and yellow ones made for the tigers! they look great! I'm going to get them in yellow and black too so yeah... We also bumped into one of our Advanced English class students and one of his mates so we went and had ice cream with them and talked for a good hour which was fun. We had institute that night too which was fun as always, we play uno for a little at the end... I didnt win this time it was weird... i usually get at least one win!
Saturday was pretty busy we had to clean the church and then prep for General Conference, we watched the Saturday morning session live, a fair few members came which was good, apart from that though the day was normal!
Sunday again was really busy, we had time to find in the morning so we went out, we were about 2 hours into walking and it was hot so we took a 5 minute bench break, I guess it was inspired because some guy ended up talking to us for like an hour and we have his phone number and he wants to meet up so that is cool, problem is that he is a pretty devout orthodox man! Oh well it was still fun being able to have some sort of success, you never know maybe he will convert ;) After that it was lunch then off to the church for another conference session, after that session we had dinner at the church which the Senior Couple here made and then watched one more session before heading back home.
So yeah that was about my week, this week will be good, we have another exchange, I'll be staying here though which is good I'm kind of sick of travelling! We also have our Zone Conference which we will have to prep for... we are on food too which sucks... i guess pizza it is! cant complain too much right?
Hope you guys are doing well :) you'll be in my prayers achy! hope you get better quick. keep me updated on what the surgeon says.
