Week 90 - Warsaw

Hello there everyone!  This week was way good.  We did some good finding and had a lot of fun.  

Monday: Today was pretty chill.  I got a haircut.  Don't remember what else we did exactly though.  Good day though.

Tuesday: Elder Dickson's birthday!  That was a fun time.  We did weekly planning in the morning, then for lunch, we went to Hard Rock Cafe with the other missionaries here in Warsaw.  We did some contacting in the afternoon and evening.  We also went and got some kebabs for dinner with a returned sister missionary who came back to Poland with her family.

Wednesday: Independance Day!  Did some studies in the morning then had district meeting at the mission office.  That was way fun.  We learned the Pledge of Allegiance in Polish, but I already forgot it.  We had interviews afterward with President Turek, which went well.  Contacted a bit, then taught English in the evening.  They also had a grill for the youth for the Fourth of July, and they invited the missionaries to that, so we went.  That was a fun time.

Thursday: We did some contacting, which was fun.  We had a meeting with our less-active, D., which was okay.  He said he'd be "1000%" in church, but he didn't show up unfortunately.  Met with P., the recent convert, which went well.  Still working on the recent convert lessons with him.  Then we did some less-active finidng in the evening.

Friday: Studied in the morning, then had an English finding activity after lunch with some of the other missionaries.  Wasn't too bad.  We then in the evening went out to a city just north of Warsaw to meet with a potential, but they canceled right as we got there.  We just did some more less-active finding, which was fun.

Saturday: Pretty fun day.  We also got our transfer calls in the morning.  Elder Dickson will go down to Rzeszów with Elder Blau, I'm excited for them.  I'll miss Elder Dickson a lot, just one of the nicest guys I've met on my mission.  Super humble.  I found out that I'm going to spend this transfer in Białystok with Elder Dossett from my MTC group.  I'll miss Warsaw and the missionaries I was with there, but I'm pumped to be with Elder Dossett.  We taught English at noon, and met with an investigator, R., afterward.  We talked about the Holy Ghost, and it went well.  We had Sports Saturday and played some more flag football, which was a blast.  In the evening, we met with a potential, P., and taught the Restoration.  Went pretty well.

Sunday: Church was good, as usual.  Said goodbye to all the members, but I'll see them again sometime because Białystok is in the same branch as Warsaw, we just have a group out here.  We came back and packed for a bit, then we did our culture night thing with the other missionaries.  We went to a park in Warsaw to a Chopin concert and had a picnic, which was fun.  Good way to finish the transfer.

And that was the past week.  I had a train this morning, and now I'm here in Białystok with Elder Dossett.  I'm really pumped, it should be a fun transfer.  Hope y'all have a good week!
