President Hinckley about missionary work in the last days said: ‘’Our hope concerning the future is big and our faith is strong. We know that we have barely touched the surface of what will come in the coming years, and what lies ahead of us. Our burden on the path ahead of us is big. But our opportunity is amazing. (Gordon B. Hinckley. “Look to the future” 1997)S Bohem, Starsi Paxton

Hradec Kralove
Good week. We went to Liberec to go to their district meeting and did a singing display after. It was pretty cool cause we found a lot of people for the Elders in Liberec. Our investigators have been making a lot of progress this week. One guy that we have been meeting with had a problem with smoking, he would smoke 10 cigarettes a day but we taught him the word of wisdom on Friday and he is already down to just 4 a day so things are going well for him. Sports day was really good this week because we invited this guy to play with us then when we had our spiritual thought at the end he started asking me all of the questions. Turns out he is a JW but doesn't really like the church here so we talked a lot about our church and what we believe. He is coming again next week and we will hopefully get him to come to church soon.
Oh we also had a pretty awkward experience this week cause we went back to the moms house that we tracted into this week and knocked the door but this lady came out and we were like hey we talked to a different lady from Ukraine here on Sunday and she told us to come back today. She was like nobody from Ukraine lives here. I thought she was lying so I was like come on we were here on Sunday and talked to her. But she still kept saying no and so finally we were like whatever and left. As soon as she went back inside I realized that we were at the wrong house. I felt so bad! The mom wasn't even home either so I guess we will try again.
We also got a less active to come to our game night and teach us a new song on the guitar. I didn't really get it though it was way too hard for me.
Anyways have a great week!
