Just Don't Get Hit 💪🚲

Hallo iedereen!!

The weather is starting to get cooler and I'm so excited, I love fall!! I can't wait for the leaves to start changing its going to be absolutely GORGEOUS. And sweater weather is the best, catch me living my best life in Leeuwarden :)

- TWO people we're meeting with--our friend,  Richard, and a less-active, Wieke--just decided to stop smoking this week. It was the coolest thing. I've noticed God prepares people better than they realize sometimes. And YES please stop smoking it's bad for your health and God will bless you extra for it haha!!
- Did service for someone! We were weeding her backyard and she asked us to pull two stumps out. The selection of garden tools was minimal, so we literally just ...pulled them out. #sterkezusters 💪
- went to the market, got delicious gyros for lunch. Sometimes I remember I'm living in the Netherlands and it kinda blows my mind haha!
- I don't understand why this place constantly has the prettiest sunsets I've ever seen but I'm NOT complaining 😍😁
- got the fietsen out again, finally!! Did NOT lose the groentje in the process, so that's a win 🏆
- "Just go, don't get hit!!" - me, as a trainer
- last pday we met up with our zone and did some cool stuff. There was a piano in the parking garage, and boy howdy did I enjoy playing it. (It was mega out of tune and the C didn't work but beggars can't be chosers haha) 
- We had stake conference this week! Someone did a musical number of "Savior, Redeemer of My Soul." That's always been one of my favorite hymns!! It's held a special place in my heart since I did it for a musical number with one of my comps. It was one of the best, most spiritual musical numbers I've ever done. It's held a special place in my heart ever since. So hearing the exact same arrangement in stake conference was a little sign from Heavenly Father that He's paying attention to me. It was small but it made me smile :)

A quote I loved from my studies this week: "The Lord needs you to change the world!" He sent us here to do big things! He needs you to change the world, even if it's just changing your world. :) Little things we do can have a big impact on our lives and the lives of those around us. So go out there and CHANGE THE WORLD this week and know that Zuster Weaver is out here rooting for you!! 😁

Ik hou van jullie!! Blijft het doden 🙌

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

"I'm not interested"

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
