Hallo iedereen!!

I don't have a lot of time today. There's been so much that happened this week!! A quick snapshot: :D

 - the fire alarm in our apartment building went off Tuesday morning at about midnight! We vacated the building, in our pajamas, and waited for about 30 minutes until the firemen cleared it so we could go back in and go back to bed.

 - One of the member families we visited made an igloo out of all the snow in their yard! They let us go in it, and it was the COOLEST thing!!!

 - Another member in my ward has an atlas of the world from Germany in 1823. There's a page with a map of the Netherlands!

 - We were serving at an assisted living home. I got to play the piano for a good 45 minutes, then Elvis came and did a concert for us. Because it was his birthday. Weirdest mood change of my life, from playing "A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief" to some guy dressed up as Elvis singing love songs to everyone...

 - We were cleared to do in-person missionary meetings again!! So our impromptu district activity happened today :D We went bowling! I struggled on the first game, totally came back the second game though. It was way fun!!

Ik hou van jullie!! Blijf het doden!! De kerk is waar, en ik weet dat het Boek van Mormon waar is. Ik hou van mijn zending!! Worden een zendeling is het beste keuze u zal ooit maken.

Tot ziens!!

Love,

Z Weave

I made it!!! I'm here!! As a zendeling in Virginia!! It's my first P day in the field, and WOW. It's been crazy. So so crazy.  Monday we flew to DC!! There were 25 or so missionaries that flew in. It's the biggest group they've had in a long time. We met President and Sister Crankshaw and the APs and drove to the mission home. We had dinner and a little meeting, then went to a hotel to stay the night. Tuesday we met at the stake center for a few more meetings, then we met our trainers!!!!! My trainer is Sister Rogers and she is AMAZING. We're like the same person I love her haha!! I'm so grateful I got a trainer I get along with, It's definitely made the transition to missionary life easier.  We do a lot of service!! Last week we served at a food pantry, two thrift stores, and an education farm. It was so fun!!! I had yellow watermelon for the first time and it was DELICIOUS. We had a few lessons with members, which was fun!! They're a

Hallo iedereen!! Here we are again. It's funny how some weeks fly by, and others just ... don't. This week was a little longer. We've been doing a lot of finding! And haven't really found much! We knocked a door on Tuesday. A lady answered, but she didn't speak english. She had her son come talk to us. We said we had a message to share about families! And he said we could come back the next day!!! So we went back Wednesday to teach him and his family. But ... his dad answered the door through the ring doorbell. (I don't like those things. At all.) He said thanks for coming, but because of our religion we can't talk about. Which was weird, because we've definitely talked to other people of that religion before. But ok, I guess... We at least planted a seed in the son. Hopefully! We went knocking on Friday night. Sis Rogers had a prompting to go to a specific road. We were so pumped and ready. We got to this road and both felt like we should knock on a hou

God Loves Us--Rainbows and Prayers

 You guys!!  Ah this is crazy, it's already been two weeks. ....And it's only been two weeks. There is just so much!!  But a few stories from this week!!  Wednesday we had district council. It was so fun!! We played a version of Jeopoardy, put together by the district leaders. It involved nerf guns and lots of random questions. As you do, you know.  I was kind of struggling after district council. I have this problem where I want to know everything but I want to skip the process of actually learning  it. Niet prima... everything is this way. getting to know people, learning dutch, learning how to be a good missionary, literally everything. There's nothing you can do that you'll be good at the first time!! And that frustrates me sometimes!! It was hitting me pretty hard on Wednesday. I asked God for something, like just a way to know He was still there and he was listening. It wasn't even a formal prayer. Just kind of a thought, asking for help. I made it
