BAPTISM

Heres to the last week in Kosovo! 

Sooo crazy I only have one week left, doesnt even feel real, where did the time go. 

This week Kirstina got baptized!! It was sooo amazing, aw I really love her so much, and look up to her in so many ways. She was so excited to be baptized and you could just see how happy she was. It really was contagious and made everyone there soo happy. She was a little nervous, because she is afraid of water, but didnt let that stop her from doing what is right. I look up to that so much, I have had many times where I know I need to do something because it's the right thing to do, but I get to nervous or afraid, and so I dont do it. It's really important that when we get a prompting to do something,maybe even something little like talking to someone, we do it, even if we are nervous. If it's the right thing to do, God will help us. 

Sooo also some good news is we were able to start church again!! Never realized how much of a privilege having church was, but we are soooo grateful. It was sooo funn!! I loved every second of it!

Love you guys, make this week the best

Muslim for a week

Heyy friends, 
A pretty busy week, we met with a really cool girl who was referred to us! She grew up Muslim and has read the Kuraan 3 times, but does not believe it, so she has started looking for the truth. It was so cool to teach her, because she had been reading about our  church and had watched a documentary about Joseph Smith. While she was reading online, she read that we don't drink coffee so she said that she quit drinking coffee!! Over all she is very cool and very excited to learn more!

We met another girl at the park and she asked us if we could go to the mosque and pray with her, because the prayer call was going to start. So we walked over to the mosque with her and got to go in and then we got to watch them do their prayer routine. It was a really neat experience. Cool to see how most people, have that inner desire to have a relationship with God. God really is our father and he wants to hear from us, it was really interesting to see even though they were praying differently than we pray, God still is happy with their desire. We all can communicate with heavenly Father, he wants to hear from us! I am so grateful that I know he is there for us and he is always listening to us. 

Have the best week!! Love youu all tons ðŸ’œ
