Week 41 Athens!

Hi Everyone!
I am now in Athens and I love it! The work here is amazing! We have a lot going on! The sisters here are working hard and are so fun to work with! I am now with Sisters Leuzinger and Jansson. I was with them before and now we are a trio:) Its fun!
This week I went to go do service for 5hours at a refugee warehouse, where they gather furniture and and supplies for the apartments that they stay in. It was really neat to see how much we could do. We also had some lessons with our investigators this week. Souri is one of them. She is the sweetest thing! She is from Iran and came here looking for freedom and peace. She loves the gospel and wants to get baptized. We also had a lesson with Jemika. She loves learning about Christ. She teaches a Bible class to a youth. she had  heard about our church from the elders and wanted to learn more. This week we taught her the restoration and she loved it. It was so amazing! We also had a lesson with Anastasia, who is from Greece. She loves to serve the people around her! She is loving the lessons and wants to learn more. So, we are excited to see her again today!
We also had a fun little miracle that happened on Saturday. We were looking for a less active that we had never met before and the people in the building did not know her. So, we decided we would still check every door. And at the last door she opened the door and we thought she was another lady because she didnt tell us her name. But she wanted help cooking and so we helped her cook and clean and as her husband came home he said her name and we realized in that moment it was her! We talked to her about visiting her again and she was very happy to hear that and her children agreed to coming to church again! It was so amazing!
I Love you all and I am very grateful for the opportunity I have to be here and learn so much!
Love you,
Sister Ramsay
