Week 23 ~ Paintballingggg

Last week we went paintballing on Halloween with the zone! It was district vs. district and our district won. Plus our district had all the sisters... coincidence? Toefall bestaat niet. We tried to travel back to Utrecht, but there was a fire arm spotted on a train at Rotterdam North station so there were cops everywhere and a helicopter, and all the trains back to Utrecht weren't running because they went through Rotterdam North station. Soooo we had to chill in Rotterdam Centraal for a couple hours until we could catch a train. But it turns out that the train didn't stop in Utrecht so we started heading toward Amsterdam.. so Elder Torrie jumped out at a stop to see if there was a train heading back to Utrecht and Elder Roberts didn't see him get back on so Elder Roberts jumped out and then they got separated hahah it was so crazy. We all eventually made it back to Utrecht Centraal safely.... haha.

We had a ping pong tournament at district meeting, and of course that was my favorite thing ever. Plus a little old man told me I look like Mona Lisa...?

The craziest thing happened this week!! Zuster Greening was on exchanges here in Utrecht with me and we went to look up a referral we got from the elders. Turns out we had the wrong address, but the lady who lived there, Claire, said she had been taught three lessons by some elders before! She then told us to check across the street. We rang the bell and one of our investigators, Mary, who we had been trying to get in contact with for a while, answered the door! Turns out she babysits the kids there during the day. So we didn't contact the referral, but were able to get a lesson with Mary and find Claire! And we called the elders and the elders teach Claire's husband already! It was so awesome. God was definitely guiding us that day.

We met with some J-Dubs on Saturday and very kindly bible bashed with them in a Burger King. That was definitely a new experience haha. It was fun to learn about their faith a little bit and share what we believe as well. I shared an awesome section out of 2 Nephi 2 with them about Adam and Eve too. It was actually a really cool experience and a testimony builder.

Anyway I love you all so much! Everything here is still going well :) You are all welcome to come move here with me when we get a new president on Tuesday! Good luck...

Liefs, Zuster Fordiani
