Well dad, I do not remember how mom's homemade pies even taste so HA! I
will think of you while I eat Germany pastries and by fresh bread from the bakeries
that are on every corner here. We will
be having our zone conference in Hamburg Wartenau ward on Thanksgiving day and
we will be eating some German food, I do not know which ones yet.
This past week we went to Lüneburg and helped move a piano down from
the second story of the apartment building and then moved the piano up to the
upstairs of the person’s house we moved it to, needless to say I was slightly
sore after that service activity but the brother gave us a referral afterwards
so that was really cool.
What I love about this ward is now that the ward trust us a lot, we are
averaging getting one referral a week which is extremely difficult in Germany,
let alone in a small town area with very few people in it. I would say that
that is my favorite thing about this area. I have not had any companion
exchanges recently but we are planning to do a few this week, we will see if
they actually happen or not.
I feel like I have been reading in 3 Nephi for the past several weeks,
but I read in German and really try to understand everything the Savior taught
the Nephites very clearly and understand the commentary that Mormon writes as
well so I enjoy that.
Scripture of the week: 3 Nephi 26:13 “Therefore, I would that ye should
behold that the Lord truly did teach the people, for the space of three days;
and after that he did show himself unto them oft, and did break bread oft, and
bless it, and give it unto them.”
Quote of the week: "He is the Gift" Christmas initiative from
two years ago.
Love you and I hope that you have a good week and enjoy your Thanksgiving
feasts!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Love,
Elder Fisher
