Hallo iedereen!!

Ik hoop dat jullie een fantastische week hebben gehad :) ik ook, trouwens.

- went to Delft last pday!! Turns out the more delft stores you go in, the more things you will buy. 

- I bought a delft nativity!!!! Y'all I'm so excited hahaha, who needs clogs when you have a delft nativity. 🇳🇱🎄

- we went in delft stores that ranged from PROFESSIONAL don't look at it cuz you can't afford to breathe on it, to this one where a lady was sitting there painting the very delft pieces that were all over this amazing room. It was so cool :)

- also there was a Christmas store. Yes. It made me very happy. You can see the picture by clicking on the link below. 👇

- Richard, our friend that we've been meeting with for months, has been very distant lately. Leaving us on read, the likes. Prayers for him please 🙏 

- our other promising friend who is super cool also texted us and said she doesn't believe in the Book of Mormon. That one hurt too. 

- BUT we have 4 really awesome potentials that we're working with, one of them came to church this week and it was so cool. And we met with another girl and she is so excited about the Book of Mormon and thanked us for coming over and she seems so ready :)) so reallyyyyy hoping that goes well

- another Christmas concert rehearsal!! "I'll be home for Christmas" is hitting a little different this year

- also I don't think I ever actually said this but the Christmas concert I'm playing in is technically 4 days after I go home. So natuurlijk, Zuster Weaver being Zuster Weaver, I'm extending my mission 4 days so I can play the cello for a Christmas concert. If there's one thing that explains my personality yeah that's basically it 😂😂 I just love music and I love Christmas and this was literally the perfect opportunity so catch me playing the cello in the Netherlands ✌️😁🇳🇱🎄

- whose Dutch is improving???? Yours, if you're practicing 😉 and mine too hehe, Dutch compliments literally make my day that's all 😁🙌

- My mom asked me last week how many nativities I have now. ...with me, on my mission. Not counting the ones at home. I'm at six...? 😬😅😂

We were talking with a friend last night about joy. She was saying how important it is for us to choose positivity!! And it's SO true. If we want to be negative in life it will happen. We have to choose joy!! There are so many things to be happy about, you just gotta find them :) Men are that they might have joy!! 

Go find some joy this week :)

God loves you and I do too!! Blijf geweldig, je kan het doen 😁

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

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

"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
