Hey friends,

This week was really great. I'm always learning so much and I'm really thankful that I have so many opportunities here and have learned a lot.

So Monday evening we had an appointment with the Krauses. We had dinner and a lovely evening. For our spiritual thought, we both thought about President's Thema [subject] from Zone Training back in December, when he talked about "fear not" and how it is the most repeated message in the Old Testament. How important it is to trust in Heavenly Father because He knows all and how to help us.

We were in Berlin for like three days this week as well. We stayed Wednesday night in Berlin because Thursday morning was Zoco [Zone Conference] and it was wonderful. I learned so much and it was exactly what I needed to hear. I know that Heavenly Father knows us exactly and that he knows how to help us whenever we need. All we need to do is ask in faith. And sometimes he will even send us answers to questions unasked or that we don't even know we have:)

Zone Conference

Sundays are my very favorite and fast and testimony meeting was wonderful. I love it so much because I love hearing from all the members here and their testimonies and it is amazing how much it helps build your testimony. After church, we went to the Kosak's for lunch, Schwester Dörlitz was also dabei [there with us] and it was great. And for Abendbrot [dinner] we went to the Seidl's. I am so thankful for all the support we have here and what wonderful times we have and the friends I have here.

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 m...

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! Lg, Sister Hammer PS sorry for the overload of pictures this is literally the first group email I've sent this transfer...

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 h...
