Week 12

Hi all. There was a holiday this week so things were crazy. Either there were tons of people on the street or NULA. like a baren wasteland. Pardubice is still awesome. Not a lot of people were interested with what we had to say this week. Oh but our chocolate family is amazing! They are the cutest little family. Their son who is 7 shows me all his planes in mindcraft.. which is ENGLISH so i can tell him what they are. I love talking to kids. they use little words. Our favorite investigator Lukaš is thinking of moving so we are pretty bumbed. Cenek is still amazing. The HK elders try to steal him for their lessons. Sister Framp says "get your own recent convert!" Last night we were contacting with cenek and there was no one outside so we did a singing display to the birds. Not just birds, giant peacocks that were sleeping in a tree. We just sang 1 song for kicks and giggles but it was pretty funny. also we taught a girl we contacted and found out half way through the lesson she was a member. we were like what the hecks lady? your a member? she came to church this week too! 

Have a great week everyone!

Week 11

Hi family. This weeks going to be short again. Really cool story this week. We were contacting and walked past a store and a big man walks out. He first makes fun of our czech.. mostly mine.. then asks us what we want. We asked him if he'd like to meet on another day to talk about Jesus Christ. He was like right here right now lets do this thing. so we go in the store and turns out it was his wifes chocolate store. there little 6 year old son is sitting on the couch playing gameboy. So we sit and the dad and son have to leave becuase they lost their keys but we talked to the mom for quite a bit and the gospel is something she is really looking for in her life and in her family's. This week we are going to her house to have a lesson with her family. They are a fun group. Cool thing is we had been writing chocolate lady on our list of referals for like 2 weeks now but never knew who the "chocolate lady" was.. turns out it was her! And there family is super cool. We are really excited. Also our goal this week was to find a family. RODINY! 

Funny story.. to show you how crazy we've gone. Saturday night we were looking for cinnoman kofola (the czech "coke" during communism.. its darn good) Anyways we can never find it and at tescos we saw there was none.. then we saw the tag for it on the shelf.. then we decided to let sestra f give me a lift and there was ONE LEFT behind all the other kofolas which are a lot of kofolas. we started jumping and shouting.. it was a spectacle nonetheless. There was one man on the aisle who started laughing at us so we went and told him we were sorry but pointed at the cinnoman kofola with crazy happy faces. It was really good too. 

Love you all. It was fun to hear about the half marathon. Way to go!
