This week has been crazy busy! We went to visit the Koutouri family. They live about 2hours away, but we knew we had to go there and visit them! They are such a sweet, hard working, humble family. The daughter, Tasoula struggles with coming to church. She doesnt want to come, because her mom tells her to. We talked to her about gaining a testimony. We talked about how it is important to find out for ourselves if the church is true. So, after our lesson with her we called her a few more times during the week to keep in touch. And she came to church this sunday!
Also one of our investigators, Milena, quit her job so she could come to church. She had been wanting to come for a while now, but her job kept her from coming. She came and loved it! She even met our other investigator Maya who came as well:) They both speak russian and got along really well!
We also had a lesson with Maya...she actually called us and asked if we could have another lesson. She really loves learning more and more! It is such a blessing to be here and see these people! They are really amazing people!
We had a lesson with Αγγελικη as well. She is a less-active who loves having us over! We actually asked her if she coudl help us with our lessons...by having us practice and do role-plays with her on how we can improve in being missionaries. She loved it! She dived right into a role...she said, "tell me about the gospel...I know nothing" :) It was soo cute!
We had a lesson with Stella this week as well and the lesson went very well. She loved hearing about the plan of Salvation. I love Greeks!! They always say, "πεσμω!" hahah It means keep going, or tell me more. So, we were able to talk about the whole plan of salvation. She didnt want us to stop:)
After our lesson she asked us where we were going and we told her "White Boarding". We explained what it is and she said next time I want to come and be a missionary too! hahah She is so sweet!
While we did white boarding our theme was the free english and greek classes we do. So, we passed out cards with the info on that and Sister Leuzinger and I decided to start doing german classes as well and see of anyone is interested. And to my surprise we had a lot of people that were interested in the german classes. So, we will be starting that too:)
This week has been great!! I see miracles everyday and I am so grateful for this opportunity to serve!! I am really learning so much!
Love you all,
Sister Ramsay
