Week 22 Thessaloniki

Hey!

 How is everyone doing??

This week we had a lesson with Maya. She is really a light! We had the Branch President with us and his wife in the lesson. Her husband even decided to join in on the lesson, which was so great! We were teaching her the Plan of Salvation and she had really good questions. She later on in the lesson bore her testimony of the spirit. She told us how she had other lessons with other religions and hasn't felt anything like she does now. She even came to church this sunday! She stayed all three hours and really liked it! So, that was really cool! We really love her:)

We also had a lesson with Maybelle this week! Her baby is sooo cute! She told us that she might be staying in Athens, because her baby has to have certain check-ups that cant be done in Thessaloniki. So, we are praying she can somehow stay:) haha

But, our lesson together was about prophets and it was so funny. She had studied out prophets before we came and said she wanted to go over it. Which we wanted to talk about anyway. She had 5 different websites up and pages to talk about the topic prophets. She wanted to make sure she knew what was right. Oh I love her! She's soo sweet!!

This week we also started working on our less-actives. We have a bunch of them who we haven't met so we decided to go and see if they still live here and if we could do anything to help. We actually found a lady and she was raised in Germany. We were a little worried going at first because she didnt really want missionaries visiting her anymore. So, we decided maybe if we spoke german and tried helping her, maybe she would feel a bit better about missionaries. We spoke german as soon as we saw her and she let us in:) She opened up right away! I dont know how it happened. All I know is God puts us in places in the right time! I know Sister Leuzinger and I are here together for a reason! We are so happy to be able to speak german when we need to:) It is definitely something way fun!

Another cool thing we found out this week is that we can continue lessons with the Romanian family!!! We werent sure what we were going to do because we have a little bit of a language barrier at times. But we will now have skype lessons with the Elders in Romania. And they will translate and help teach:) We are really excited about this!

I really love this work! I love being able to bring people unto Christ!! Im learning sooo much! Thank you all for your support:) I really can feel the love!

Love you all soo much,

Sister Ramsay
