Week 6 09/06/2016

Hey guys, p-day got moved to Tuesday this week because of the holiday on Monday.  Also this week is my first transfer. Elder Kirk has gotten the boot and I'll finish being trained by his trainer, which is pretty weird. Idk If I mentioned before but when you come out you're "born" and when you go home you "die". Your trainer is your father and anyone else he trains is your brother. So now my grandpa is my stepdad which
is neat.  I have had a pretty great week, some highlights include eating authentic Czech food (I'll put a picture), exchanging with a nice Elder named Elder Egbert, finding a whole lot of new people, exchanging with a crazy person named Elder Hernandez and really trying to scramble everything together because exchanges are this week. One of my favorite experiences this week happened when I was with Elder Hernandez. He taught me a lesson about boldness. He talked to everyone, and that includes people inside their cars while they're driving. He literally stopped people on the road and motioned for them to roll down their windows and then gave them a card. It was pretty nuts, we got to teach a lesson to our cashier at Zaxbys as a reward. I learned that even though nothing will likely come from some of the contacts, you never know, and the Lord rewards the effort.  Things are picking up here too, we're finding a lot of people to teach. We have a few really solid new guys that I'm really excited to teach, I won't go into much detail about them right now, but it's pretty neat to be able to help these people from the very beginning of their growth. I don't think I have any random thoughts this week, just the church is true and it's great to be on a mission.
