Hey everyone! Sorry that I haven't emailed in the past couple weeks, I've honestly just had no time to sit down and be able to write emails. Today I also have to write really fast haha.
What's going on with me?
Well, I visited the following cities this week: Chemnitz, Bischofswerda, Mittweida, Schwarzenberg, Dresden, Augustusburg, and all the cities in between. Honestly it was an adventure and super fun. I slept in my bed in Freiberg only once this week.
Some great memories from the past weeks: visiting a friend that lives in a tiny village outside of Dresden and realizing that because buses only come once an hour that we wouldn't be able to make it home on time. We went to Schwarzenberg, a little mining town among the hills where people speak a weird dialect and accidentally talked to a huge group of Jehovah's Witnesses, who didn't let us walk away until they had given us each a copy of their magazine.
Funny moment: I have become a legend among all the primary kids here, because I buy there love with my little rubber animals... (by the way, I may need some more haha). And there are several little kids that now call all other missionaries "Elder Openshaw _________" as if ElderOpenshaw is the title of all missionaries. For example, they call my companion ElderOpenshaw Lorenzen. It's hilarious I'm glad that they remember my name so well haha. It has even got many of the parents to learn my name! The adults normally just always say "Elders," even if they're talking to just one of us.
I love you all and I hope you're doing well!
