So to start this week off, we had some crazy fog. We are really starting Halloween off right! It is actually kinda creepy sometimes.  I also apparently sleep talk sometimes... in German. My companion told me that the other day. I am really cracking down on learning the language! I even practice speaking it while I sleep!

We had some really great lessons this week with our investigators. Both of our investigators prayed for us and both lessons were crazy spiritual. One of our investigators is a 13 year old boy. We taught him about Joseph Smith and the restoration. He asked so many questions that I never though a 13 year old boy would ask. I really admire his faith. Our other investigator is a very jolly man. I don't think I have ever heard someone talk so fast or laugh so loud in my life! I love them both so much though.

I also got my bike fixed this week so Sister Sanders and I were able to get our grocery shopping done much faster this week! Public transportation this week was so bad.... I don't think I have ever had to suffer through a bus ride as bad as I did this past week. I don't know what happened... But everyone smelled so bad! Oh my goodness. Take showers everyone. Personal hygiene is really important.

Sister Sanders this week made all kinds of food. She made these really good cinnamon roll things on Tuesday. We were going to take them to our district meeting, but when we were getting off the S-Bahn (train?) she karate chopped them out of my hands. They flew everywhere!! Haha! We were laughing so hard. When we went to go throw them away. This drunk Russian guy started yelling at us... I think he went through the trash and found them later... Anyway. Sister Sanders also tried to make gluten free rolls and they ended up like hockey pucks. And for our weekly planning session, Sister Sanders fried up some fries. They were really good.
 
And to end off an awesome week! General Konferenz! I love general konferenz because we really get to listen to the direction of our loving prophet and his counselors. I learned so much and could really feel my Saviors love during the talks. We had the opportunity to go to our stake center in Wartenau and watch the Saturday and Sunday morning sessions live. This was really cool because we were watching it the same time our families were. I loved all of the talks and know that we can all learn so much from them all. If you haven't had the opportunity to watch conference, I would encourage you to do so. I promise that you will be filled with the spirit and the love that your Heavenly Father has for each of you.

My favorite scripture this week!

Matthew 10:39
      "He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it."

Do your best to do what you feel is right and put your trust in him and let him guide your life. :)

I love you all and hope you have a lovely week!
