We had a dinner appointment last night with our favorite American family the Cleggs and they have twin 2 year old girls and are pregnant with another set of twins. During the spiritual thought we showed them a picture of Christ and we asked them if we knew who it was and they replied "Jesuschristamen." They're adorable!

We had a very busy week and it continues to get busier as we approach SALMAN'S baptism this Saturday! He passed his interview on Tuesday and we are trying to pull together his baptismal program. Yaaaaaay! 

Well like I said last week we've seen some amazing stuff happen because we are over both Wiesbaden (America and Germany) wards. One woman's name is Xia from China. We met with her suuuuper early on Tuesday morning in the Bishop's house. She's a good friend of Sister Horner and has observed how good her kids behave and she felt so much love in their home. She had questions about what they do to help their family be more unified and loving. It was a perfect example of members living the gospel and others noticing the difference. We taught her the first lesson and it went really well. She really like the Book of Mormon, but sadly didn't quite understand everything we taught her due to a language barrier. She's really awesome though and wants to meet with us regularly. 

Then later on Tuesday we met with Marion! She's recovered SO QUICKLY from her stroke (it wasn't a full on stroke, but still pretty bad). She was able to walk around without any walking sticks and she seemed a lot happier. We went on another walk and sat on a park bench in a corn field and taught her the first lesson. It was really peaceful and the Spirit was really strong. She told us that one day she felt so sick and so depressed so she read in the Book of Mormon and watched the movie Prophet of the Restoration. She said she took a nap afterwards and when she woke up she just felt the Spirit and immediately felt so much better. She said ever since that day her health has improved very rapidly. She should be out of rehab this Saturday! 

I love being a missionary and I love the people I've met! Go and serve someone this week! 

Love you
Sister Luymes
