It’s still warm here in Stuttgart. It got cold over last weekend and then it went back to being warm. Its been in the 80's. It’s nice because it is warm in the sun and cool in the shade.

We went to Munich in the middle of the week for Zone Leader Council. It was really cool. I really like getting together with all the other Zone Leaders in the mission, along with President and Sister Miles. There’s something new now in the mission feld. Every time we have these Zone Leader councils we are to have mini Zone Conferences and discuss with everyone in our zone about what we discussed at Zone Leader Council.

I am going to Munich again tomorrow because Elder Nelson has decided to visit his daughter Sister Miles (lol). He is going to be in Munich tomorrow and he is meeting with the missionaries in the Munich and Stuttgart Stakes. We need to be in Munich by 8:30 tomorrow, so our train leaves at 5:40ish. So ya, we have to get up early tomorrow. Elder Nelson wants to shake everyone's hand and meet us. The meeting will be from 8:30-12. I'm pretty excited. I remember going to something similar back home with Elder Oaks. It was awesome. Elder Bednar and Elder Christofferson have already come to my mission since I've been here, but my mission is so big I didn't get to see them.

We found a new investigator this last week, as well, named Frank. He is about 28. He is Atheist. We met with him twice. He does not believe in God anymore because he was in the Catholic church and he asked the Priests questions that they couldn't answer. So he left the church and doesn't really believe in God anymore. The first visit with him wasn't the best. It was just good enough to have a return appointment. He was just full of doubt and everything the first time we met him. He asked us the questions that he asked the Priest. All of his questions you can find answers to in the Book of Mormon. The 2nd appointment, it went really well. He talked about how he wants to believe in God, because he believes his life would be better if he believed. It's just hard for him to believe. The Spirit really worked with him the second time we met with him. He was a lot different than the first time. He wants to believe in everything thing now.  So he is reading the Book of Mormon now. He has a lot of potential. 

Stefan comes back from Moscow tomorrow and we will meet with him on Thursday. He is excited to meet with us again. We haven’t had contact with him since he's been in Moscow.

Tschüß (Bye).
