Náááááázdar milé dámy a drazí pánové,
This week was another relatively regular one, with a couple notable exceptions! Despite the lack of craziness, it was an exceedingly good week. Life in České Budějovice is always a blast!
Our week did consist of a lot of time spent staring at our phones, which does tend to deflate our moods! However, I think one of the greatest things to learn is that our attitude is always on us. We often can’t control our circumstances, but we can control how we react. This week my companion and I hit a point, where we honestly realized that while we weren’t doing anything wrong, we could be doing better. So we resolved to do better! It kinda is that simple! Really hard, but impossibly simple! Our good young friend is still working on her baptismal date, and we’re eager to help her press forward as she learns more about God and her relationship to Him! We’ve gotten blessed by having a super wonderful branch down here who are very willing to teach with us, which is incredibly helpful! Having a member there can change the entire lesson, so I guess this is my call to action! Check on your local missionaries, and see if you can’t help them teach someone!
This week I decided to make some classic Czech perník (don’t be fooled by google translate, it is not just gingerbread). Things were going all right up until the point where I was supposed to add the eggs. 4 of them. That’s when I discovered that I had in fact hard-boiled all of the eggs we had left. We improvised, and I’m not gonna let you know how it turned out. We also explored our church building’s dungeon. Definitely high on the creep scale, but it was a good time.
We capped the week off with a quick trip to a castle on the confluence of two big rivers here. Gorgeous! That’s where all of this weeks pictures come from! If you got any questions, just ask!
Mějte se hezky, všem!
