Week 51 BJF Nov 2

Happy late Halloween,

We spent our German Halloween painting the new apartment of one of our members, teaching some peeps, and hiding from a few trick or treaters we didn’t expect, while wearing fake mustaches.

From what I can remember of these last two weeks, we’ve gotten our official Facebook stuff at Zone conference so we’re now actively using it (it’s weird especially since I haven’t touched it in about 3 years), we went to Stake conference in Düsseldorf and I saw a lot of the members from my last ward in Bonn (was strange). 
We also celebrated the 20th year since our church in Wesel was built. 
I don’t remember if it was today or yesterday but it marks 500 years since the reformation started by Martin Luthor. Kinda cool. It’s become a big thing here.

Otherwise our time has mostly been dedicated to our friend Bright. 
We did other stuff it’s just sort of turned into a blur. So I’ll tell you a bit about him. 
We found the guy as we were attempting to reach another investigator. The other fellow had used Bright‘s phone to call us so when we called back we told us the other guy wasn’t there. So my companion then asked if he had interest to learn about Jesus and to his surprise he said yes! 
After teaching him once we didn’t see him much. One day we get a call from someone we didn’t recognise who said he was coming to church and wanted the address. To our surprise it was Bright. He’s come to church every Sunday since and he’s the first person I’ve been able to teach from start to finish. To be able to see such progression in someone is really cool.

I’ll keep his email short as we’re running out of time but hey at least I’ve got a bunch of pictures.

Today our district went to the coolest museum I’ve ever seen. The Ruhr museum in Essen. It’s a gigantic old factory redone into a fancy museum with all the history from this section of Germany. Everything from the dinosaurs to the current animals to the WWII stuff to the current life style of people here. Really a cool place, I was frankly surprised how much I enjoyed it.

So yeah. Pictures.

Liebe –Elder Fuller.
