October 24, 2016 -Bremen- 9 Months???

Moin Moin!

Things have been going pretty good here in Bremen. We've been having a bunch of member appointments which have been pretty good. It's been pretty busy here trying to meet with people and find people to meet with.

Last week was stake conference in Hamburg. It was great. Shavi came with us which was pretty exciting. We can't teach him because he lives in a camp but he loves to come to activities and stuff. It's great even if you can't teach someone just to be their friend and even by spending time with you it allows them to feel the spirit and have
someone to be there for them even when they can't take the lessons.

We also had our Persian culture night. It was super cool. We invited our investigators Kasim, Mitra and Bardia and their friends to come do an evening and share their culture with us and teach us about Iran and the language and things. It was really neat. It was cool to give them a chance to get more integrated into the ward and help the ward get to know them. And also they came back to church yesterday! They are so wonderful and I was so happy to see them.

The 20th was also my 9 month mark. I'm so grateful to spend this time serving the Lord and inviting others to come unto Christ and make so many wonderful friends. Well I love you all and hope you all have a wonderful week!

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
