I'm Training! June 17, 2019

Ahoj, 

Sorry this didn't get sent last week. The highlight of this week was transfer calls. President called us on Saturday and told me I was training and my companion is follow up training in olomouc. We are both excited but nervous. 

Monday we went to Dívčí Kàmen and toured some castle ruins. It was a really pretty hike too. We had a lot of fun.  
Tuesday we had district council at the Glassers house. Then we had a lesson with Radek and taught the word of wisdom. He didn't have any concerns which was great and committed to live it. Then we taught our English class and afterwards had a lesson with Jaroslav about tithing because he had questions about it. It went well and he understood it. We also had correlation with President Churdle. 

Wednesday was the first day we have had all transfer that wasn't jam packed with things. We were able to work on cleaning out the area book and we and then we tried to stop by some returing members houses, but no one ended up being home. We had a lesson with Jaroslav and taught him the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We tried to give him a Book of Mormon again, but he wouldn't take it and said he wouldn't read it. We told him that is the key to finding out if what we are teaching is true. A few days later he sent us a weird text saying he didn't want to meet anymore. It was really strange. 

Thursday we handed out a lot of invitations to our new English connect program.  We had a lesson with Věra which was fun. When we left her house, it was pouring rain and we didn't have umbrellas. We got SOAKED! We had to go home and change our clothes. Then we had a lesson with Andrea. I love her.  We talked about obedience, prayer and scripture study. She said her first prayer and it was simple and sweet. She has some concerns with prayer so we committed her to pray and 9:30 PM and said we would pray with her at home. Then we came home and did weekly planning. When 9:30 rolled around, I kneeled by my bed and poured out my heart that Andrea would feel that God loves her. The spirit was really strong and it was a good experience. 

Friday we went to visit a referral in Písek. We taught him the plan of salvation due to some things that has happened to him in the past. It was a good lesson. We also gave him a Book of Mormon. (Fast forward.. we followed up on his reading and he is already in Alma!) Then we went to visit Andrea and follow up on her experience with prayer. She said before she prayed she was so afraid, but she did it. She didn't have a big experience but, the next day she felt good and she took that as her answer. Then we had a lesson with Šarka and retaught her thr plan of salvation because she didn't remember anything we taught her last time. 

Saturday morning President called us and gave us the big news. I'm pretty nervous to train, but I trust the Lord and I know he will help me. Then we taught the Glassers Czech. Then we had sports night, but no one came, so we went to dinner with the Glassers. Then we came home so sis Ockey could pack. 

Sunday we met Gita early at the church. Then I translated all of sacrament meeting from Czech into English for the Glassers. Then the Glassers drove us 45 minutes away to have a lesson with Bronislav. We taught him the word of wisdom and it went really well. Then we came home and sis ockey finished packing. 

It was a crazy week, but a good one. I hope you all are doing well. 

Love,

Sestra Guymon
