September 5, 2016 - Lübeck- Mig's Baptism!

Hallo liebe Freunde!!!

So last couple weeks were wonderful!! Probably a few of the [best] weeks ever! We visited lots of people, especially members which was great.

Lübeck

A couple weeks ago, we got to go with the Friedrichs on a tour around Lübeck which was so neat. We learned lots of neat things about Lübeck and saw so much. It is seriously so beautiful, and I am so blessed to serve here!

We also met with one of our less actives, Schwester Jambang a bunch and she is absolutely amazing! She is so funny and so loving and she always picks the topics for our lessons and it is always what I need. I just love her so much!!

Mig's Baptism

So on Tuesday we had the biggest surprise! So we had an appointment for Mig planned, and an hour before that, President Fingerle called us. He told us that he had been praying and looking at the picture of us and Mig that we sent him when she had her previous baptismal date which we pushed back, and he said he wanted her to be baptized on Saturday so she could go with her husband to the temple dedication! So we talked to Mig and planned a baptism so last minute over this week it was wild! But we pulled it off and Mig was baptized on Saturday and she was just so ready and so

happy and it was absolutely wonderful and it was so wonderful to have her at the temple dedication so she could see what she is working toward!! I just love her!! It was super crazy but she was so amazing and we are so proud of her! So now we are working on getting her and Victor to the temple!!! So that was our wonderful surprise of a week!!

Well I love you all so much!

Lg,

July 10, 2017 - Hannover - Last Email!

[Gabby's Dad here, I constructed the post below from emails she sent us this week. Since they were her last emails from the field I wanted to include them.] [Speaking of the heat in Utah] Oh no I'm gonna die when I get home. It's raining right now and it is great. 100 is too hot, help me. Today it is about 65 and it is beautiful. I'm in so much trouble! It's been a good week. I was kinda sad for a bit then I just realized all the stuff I have to get done and I don't even have time to get sad oops. It will be good. Church was also really great. I gave my testimony along with Elder Pruett bc he is also getting transferred and so that was neat. We had a really good Sunday school, and Mia was also there. She's been reading in the Book of Mormon and loves it. She has lots of good questions that are super deep haha so we have been working on that. We have an appointment with her tomorrow and i am really excited. We hav

June 26, 2017 - Hannover-Whitewashing & Hildesheim Castle

Hey friends! So I don't have a ton of time today, so it's gonna be short, and it's been a while but it's been really wonderful here in Hannover! We have been working hard and it's getting there. White washing is rough sometimes, and it gets discouraging when you don't have anyone to teach, but I have really learned here that the Lord watches out for you and blesses you in ways sometimes you don't recognize until later. We have had a lot of cool experiences and a lot of fun as well. Since I don't have a lot of time, I just want to let you all know how much the Lord cares for you and is there for you even when you may not notice until later. But He is there! I love you all!

June 19, 2017 - Hannover

Oh mannnnn This is crazy! I have gotten a trillion emails from the mission about finishing and I'm like NOPE haha naja [oh well] its okay. It'll be cool. Hannover is getting better. It's going well here. Still slow which sucks sometimes but it's picking up. We had two investigators at church yesterday and it was really cool. One just kinda showed up and wanted to check it out. So we sat with her and helped explain everything, and she stayed for all three hours and loved it. Sister Koch said she was just freuing herself [rejoicing] during my talk in sacrament meeting. (I'm so bad at giving talks in church it is terrifying.) Anyway, she was really excited during Sunday school and relief society too. She even stayed for the Elder's investigator's baptism and loved it. She's coming next week too. And the other investigator was a lady we have been trying to contact forever. And she is friends with a member, and he said to let us know when we
