Week 6: Teaching Appointments & General Conference!!

Hallo Friends and Family!

I finished another week in the field! Things are starting to pick up with us here in Salzburg. We had the opportunity to teach more lessons this week, and had our first dinner appointment with members. Luckily, the whole thing was in English haha. The other lessons we did were in German, but Sister Carter handled the majority of them. One of the ladies is so sweet! She is excited to hear more, and we are excited to see hear again!

We had a lesson with the man we met on the street last week. He was so happy when we gave him a Book of Mormon. He also has been reading it because he has been sending us the verses that he likes!

Last p-day, we were planning on going to what I believe is the oldest bakery in Europe. Unfortunately, all the shops here close earlier than we're used to. The bakery ended up being closed, so we got some pizza instead. The pizza was good, but I really want to try something from that bakery. I'm determined to go there the next chance I get! 

General Conference was great, as usual, but I think it had a bit more significance to me this time. I watched most of the sessions in my apartment with Sister Carter, and we made cinnamon rolls. However, we watched the last session on Monday evening as a zone. We were all crammed into the clerk's office watching on a little computer because we couldn't get the TV to work.

There were quite a few talks about missionary work. Sometimes it is hard being a missionary, but those talks confirmed that I'm in the right place. :) I'm not sure I had a particular talk that was my favorite. All of them were really good, and I loved every testimony of our Savior. I felt the Spirit confirm to me that they were true each time. Most of all, I am so grateful to have felt the power of Christ's Atonement in my life. I think that General Conference gave me a reminder how important it is that I try to share that message with others.

Those are just a few things from my week. Ich habe euch lieb! 

Große Liebe,

Sister Gladwell
