This last week wasn't too bad. We got to teach two less actives. One of which is way cool, and named Jörg. He wants to come back to church, but has a lot of the fears that keep most less actives from coming back to church. He doesn't know anybody really, and he doesn't want people pointing fingers at him or judging him or anything. He is a way cool guy, though. He got a prompting from the Spirit that he should go to the next fast and testimony meeting. And that is this upcoming Sunday.

Yesterday we had our Primary Program here. Primary Programs are always speical. I really liked it. Then on Sunday, an old investigator came to church! It was awesome. We haven't been able to meet with her for 4-5 weeks because of school and work. She has been going to Institute, though, through this whole time and we finally got to see her yesterday and we will be meeting with her today. We are excited. She is way chill. She is about 23, I think. Her name is Gabriella(sp).

We spent a lot of time again on the streets. In the colder months here it is harder to find people because no one is outside and it gets dark around 4:30/5pm ... and Germans go to bed when it’s dark outside (lol). No, just kidding, but that’s what it feels like sometimes. Since no one is outside we can just knock on doors and everyone just yells at you "RUHIGER ABEND!!!" That just means they don't want to be disturbed for the rest of the day.

We are getting 90 missionaries added to our mission because of the new age switch for missionaries! We should have 90 new missionaries added to our mission within the next 6-9 months. The Lord is chastening His work for sure. The work in Stuttgart is getting better. Well, as of right now, this week should be better than the last 3 (knock on wood) because we will get to teach an investigator this week.

But I love you mom. Thanks for being such a good mom :) . You're the best mother in the world. You had to have a lot of patience with us boys, not having any little princesses. You only got Kings ;) . I'm trying to make you and dad proud, and the Lord proud. Tschüß (Bye).

PS: ROLL TIDE!!! 2012 SEC CHAMPS :D
