May 19 - Week 18

Hey everyone  This week has been pretty boring again.  A little more exciting than usual, but not terribly.
Some cool things is on the day we found out we can kinda talk to people on the street, we had a girl come up to us and tell us she has been meeting with the sisters. It was nice to see a friendly face.
   We went to the park one day, and as soon as we got there, the sky turned black and it began to rain way hard. We ended up running all the way back to our apartment. So we got some kind of exercise.
    I was able to talk to the family on Sunday, so that was nice.
   Probably the most exciting thing was we were able to go on a hike with some other elders. They came and picked us up, and all three of us crammed in the back if this tiny car. It kinda sucked. We got there and hiked around, so that was fun. I took a bunch of pictures, so I'll send those. The elders we went with were really cool. The one was doing backflips and etcetera.
That's about all the noteworthy things that occurred.
See ya Elder Carson

P - Day Trip National park Berchtesgarden May 12, 2020

























May 12 - Week 17

No Email Sent but we talked to Carson a couple of times this week.  Still in Quarantine but happy to have public transportation open so they can travel a little more including going to the Church building.  Not teaching face to face but doing a few lessons each week on FaceTime.  Carson a little discouraged with learning German. He thinks when allowed out in the city and can talk more with the people it will improve. Trying to stay happy although it is hard being stuck inside with not a lot to do.  Nice they have a park close and they go outside each day and play football or run.

May 4, 2020 - 16 Weeks

Hello everyone. May the 4th be with you!💡⚔
   Sorry I'm not responding to any emails or messages today. At are apartment we ran out of internet, and we couldn't make it to the church today. This week has been good. We've had several lessons so that is exciting even though several lessons fell through. We had 3 on Saturday, 3 on Sunday, 3 on Monday.  We found out this last week we can start using public transportation again. So we went to the church on Friday and Sunday. One of those days the sister also showed up, they went upstairs and we were downstairs. Beautiful building – first time to see chapel in Munich. We had a zoom meeting with John Bytheway. I hadn't heard of him before, but I am sure you might know him. Guess he is famous in the church for his lecturers and stuff. That was pretty cool. Seeing other missionaries and going to the church was really fun. I'm getting really tired of the exact same thing every day, so it was nice to have some change.  Elder Keil is ok I guess. He's pretty strict. He always talked about how they used to do it in his mission, and it's kinda annoying. He was the zone leader in his mission in Canada so he kind of acts like he knows everything and is always giving Elder Albertson advice. But I guess I am learning patients.  
I am really enjoying reading and studying the scriptures. I have started on the Book of Mormon again and I'm almost through Mosiah, and I actually understood a lot of it. It’s pretty good. I'm starting to really enjoy the book of Mormon more as I read it more and testify of its truth.   
 Love you all.
