Week 28 & 29 WOTW: Prayers :)

 Good morning/afternoon/evening!!

Here are some emojis to express my love and excitement that we are sort of communicating by the means of you reading this email 🥳🤩🌞🏓☺😬😆🥸

Prayer moments:::

1) I feel like my prayers haven't been great the past few months here in the Czech Republic. I feel like I'm always sleepy and drifting off anytime I kneel down and close my eyes and then I zone out and say nothing worth while. The past two weeks I tried to write down what I would focus on before I started my prayers and write down the words I didn't know in Czech while I prayed. And it didn't help immediately, haha. It wasn't an immediate fix. But, it gets better and better each day and I'm so grateful :)

2) Me and Sestra Hagberg have been praying so much for our friend, Amen, who wants to keep learning about God but has gotten so sick recently and we have a hard time getting him to answer the phone or text messages. But, two separate times this week we called him and he answered!!! And was so happy to see us!! God is so good 🙏🤠🤗

3) this week we had zone conference and it was. Amazing. The best one of my mission. The last few I haven't felt like I've been inspired to change and I haven't really put forth any time to prepare and ask God beforehand to teach me something or help me in some way. This time Sestra Hagberg really inspired me and we decided together to prepare. And I prayed a lot that I would be in a place where the spirit could talk to me really personally and let me know what I needed to improve on. And not just know what, but feel a desire to really make those changes I need to. And my prayer was answered :) I learned so much about goals. So much about how there are reasons when we fear or dislike something and there are always ways to fix it. I feel so happy and grateful and excited to start working on that. 

Our friends who we are teaching about the gospel are amazing!! We have a friend named Alžběta and she wants to be baptized :) she came to us and told us that and already knows everything about God. At least it feels that way when we teach her. I just can't believe I get to be a part of her journey, I'm so blessed.

This week was one of learning for me :) I feel like I learned a lot about myself and places that I can grow and it was a really wonderful week.

I love you all so very much!

Sestra

Funny p.s.

A lady on the tram today on the way back from groceries showed us her black tongue and told us not to worry, she was not sick, she just ate lots of candy. She then gave us candy and showed us her vaccination card, to make sure we felt safe :)

A pretty castle we went to, today! 

A pretty castle we went to, today! And a cool canyon hike thing called Velká Amerika that we did! And we rode a train home that was exactly like the Hogwarts express!!!(I felt so European)

Week 26 & 27 WotW: what happened today?

 The past two weeks have flown by like a lovely big bird in the sky :)

I cannot remember everything I've said in my last email but here you go!

First, I'm an office missionary with SISTER Hagberg!!!🏸🚴‍♂️

The office work doesn't take up that much of our time actually, we are in charge of doing Visa work for missionaries and helping with mailing and packages and then any other random miscellaneous jobs so that all the missionaries have what they need.  Other than that we are now teaching the friends Sister Milich and I had taught AND the friends Sister Hagberg and her former companion taught and it's so much fun, I feel so blessed. 🥳🙃🌞

What even happened today? Sister Hagberg and I's signature question to each other. We are trying to tell God we want to be busy and let me tell you, when you ask you shall receive. So much happens each day sometimes our brains are wiped. Consequently, I have become quite horrid at taking pictures so these are the only ones I have for the past 14 days....featured below. 

One miracle that just happened a few hours ago that I wanted to share...

We have a friend/family home evening every Monday night and usually it's really well attended. Tonight, however...two people showed up 😬 here we were thinking it was so awkward and such a failure, but then, someone we have invited to activities came and we asked him about New Year's goals. He asked us about ours and we talked about different goals we had about the Book of Mormon. And THAT turned into an amazing discussion and he was so interested and happy to learn and wants to grow closer to God. 😳

Moral: God's plan is so perfect. I think I make great plans, honestly. But, they are nothing compared to God's perfect plan. I know I'm just a tool in His hands and that's what I want to be. I need Him every single moment of every day. He's the reason any sort of Czech comes out of my mouth and He's the reason anyone changes for the better when we teach them about Jesus Christ. 

I hope you can let God Prevail more this week and that you feel many, many moments of joy :) I hope I do those things, too.

With all my love, Sestra Call💛🌞

We forgot to eat lunch so we ran to KFC and thought it was hilarious that we're in a European country eating cheap American food :) 

Week 25: WOTW Improvisation!

 One more time, because it's just so sweet to say: Merry Christmas everyone and the happiest of Mew Years!! Haha, Mew years is a typo when I wrote it out but, it's sort of silly so I kept it. 

I don't have any time left to write, but here are some pictures!! We went on an adventure last p day and I took so many pictures!! We had such a wonderful Christmas focused on the Savior and it brought me so much joy. Big change! Sister Milich is going to a new area and my new companion is Sister Hagberg from my district! Did not see that one coming, whoa. Change is hard but good!! 

I love you all!
