Ahoj,
Tuesday was a busy day. We went running early in the morning with President Churdle and the Elders. Then we helped a woman we are teaching prepare for an interview for her pHD and shared a spiritual thought with her. Then we had a Skype lesson with a guy in Plzen and right after a lesson with Radek. Then we taught our English class. After that we went to Andrea's performance that she invited us to. There was an orchestra and 4 singers. She was one of the singers, so we spent our dinner hour there supporting her. She has a beautiful voice. I was really impressed with the Czech culture. Everyone was dressed up and silent during the entire performance. They also always clap in unison at the end of each song which was something that doesn't really happen in America.
Wednesday we did some group finding and sang with the guitar on a busy street while everyone else who wasn't singing solo contacted and we switched off. Then we had district council which was wonderful. We all went to dinner together at a nice Czech resturant. Then we finished the night with correlation with the branch president.
Thursday we went running with the Elders and President churdle. Afterwards, we did our studies and then went to visit Věra. We shared a spiritual thought and played uno with her. Then we did weekly planning, device audits, and comp inventory. Next, we had a Skype lesson with Vergillio who is a recent convert in Plzen. It was a good lesson and we talked about temples. I really miss attending the temple and the special spirit that is there. Then we came home and made chocolate chip banana muffins to give to people and eat. :)
Friday was interesting because we went to Česky Krumlov for a lesson, but it was so packed with tourists and we couldn't get through the city because there was a Renissance Festival going on and you had to pay to get in. Luckily, we made it to our lesson, but all he wanted to do was argue with us about who has authority and that the authority was never lost. He wasn't willing to try to read the Book of Mormon. It was a really frustrating lesson. Then we came home and did a bunch of calls to clean out the area book because we are preparing to transfer all the paper records to electronic records.
Saturday we went on a trip to a beautiful castle called Hlubolka with our investigators and sis Sewell and her family because she just finished her mission and is touring around. It was fun. We actually got to go inside the castle and it was so beautiful! WOW! We shared a spiritual thought about temples and family and history which was cool. Then we had a lesson with Andrea and taught her the law of chastity. It went well and she said she would come to church with us. Then we got our stuides done and cleaned the church. Then we went to dinner with sis sewell's family, the glassers, and the elders which was a lot of fun. It was a wonderful day.
Sunday we had a wonderful day. We had 3 of our investigators at church. Radek, Andrea, and Jirka. Also, Věra was there and one of the Elders investigators who is a priest from another church. Sister Sewell who just finished her mission and her parents were there as well. We had a lot of people and it was so much fun! Then we came home and packed everything up and took a train to Plzen. We dropped our bags off at the apartment and then went and had dinner at Sister Juraskova's house. She made us knedlíky which is yummy. It had an apricot in the middle and it was covered in dough that you boil. They are little balls that you then cover in butter, tvaroh (cream cheese), and sour cream. Sounds like a strange combination, but it is pretty good.
Today was really relaxing. We got our shopping and cleaning done. Then we had to make of video introducing ourselves to the new mission President. Then we packed a picnic and went to a park and Sis Rudd taught me how to play the guitar. It was a lot of fun. Now we have family home evening. :)
This next week will be busy with changes because our new mission President is coming! But, I know President Gehring is called of God and I'm excited to see the changes to come. But, President and sister Pohořelicky will be greatly missed!
Well, I hope ya'll have a wonderful week.
S laskou,
Sestra Guymon
