| Beautiful windows in the chapel near Borg Castle. |
We were all over the place this week! We were
in Erlenbach, Otterbach, Otterberg, Winweiler, AND we had our Stake's
Sommerfest in Idar-Oberstein (about an hour drive from Kaiserslautern).
It was so much fun, but it was SO hot! The missionaries were in charge of
putting on a game for the kids so we did bobbing for apples. When we ran
out of apples for the kids we put in a watermelon for the adults. We
were laughing so hard seeing grown men biting chunks out of the watermelon
trying to get it out. We played a lot of frisbee and ate some amazing
food. It was also a great way to talk to the members about the people we
teach and see when they were available so they could mitbelehr.
On Donnerstag (Thursday) we served the Koch family. I'm pretty sure they thought only 7-8 people were going to show up, but almost 30 people showed up! They were so grateful because they had to do a ton of hard work and it made it so much easier. I got to mow the lawn (woo!) and pull weeds.
We met with Christina again this week and we've been meeting with Tony almost every day. Other than that it was the last week of summer vacation so everyone was out of town.
Today for Pday we all went to a Borg (castle) SURPRISE! This one was in Hohenecken and we were able to climb around inside it like we did in the Frankenstein castle last week.
The missionaries were also asked to give talks in sacrament meeting again as well. I spoke about the importance of daily scripture study. One of the scriptures I shared was:

John 5:39 "Search the scriptures; for in them
ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of
me."
I know that when we study the scriptures daily
we are able to learn more about Christ and the plan God has for us. The
scriptures are so important that they have been preserved for us to read.
Next Sunday is the Freiburg temple open house so we'll be in Saarbrücken!
Die Schriften sind so wichtig sie haben vor für uns bewahren. Ich weiß dass wenn wir den Wunsch haben, Christus zu folgen, Gott werden uns segnen. Ich bin dankbar für die Propheten im die Schriften und für die Erkenntnis wir haben. Ich bin dankbar für das Evangelium Jesu Christi und für die Gelegenheit es zu teilen.

(The
scriptures are so important they protect them for us. I know that if we have
the desire to follow Christ, God will bless us . I am grateful for the prophets
in the scriptures and for the knowledge we have. I am grateful for the gospel
of Jesus Christ and for the opportunity to share it.)
Bis nächste Montag! Until next Monday!
