Hello everyone!

     How are things going for you all?  Hope they are going well and you're all enjoying life.  The past week has been fun.  Last Monday, I got transferred from my area in Łódź to a city up in north-western Poland called Szczecin.  So this will be my third area.  It's a port town, and it's a very pretty city.  I love it here.  The branch is small, it looks like we only have 5ish members come normally, so it'll be a little bit of a change here.  We don't have too many investigators, and we didn't have any meetings this past week, so we're hoping we can change that around this next week.  We'll see how it goes.  This week in the Book of Mormon, I finished off 2 Nephi.  I've had an awesome experience reading from the Book of Mormon on my mission.  I'd like to share a verse that was mentioned in a talk in church here yesterday.  It's found in 1 Nephi 1, verse 12. speaking of Lehi:

12 And it came to pass that as he read, he was filled with the Spirit of the Lord.

It's a simple verse, but I think it effectively summarizes Moroni's promise that as we read, we will be filled with the Spirit.  In my experiences with reading the Book of Mormon, I know that as I have read and ponder what I read every day, and really try to make my studies a spiritually powerful experience, I have the spirit with me throughout the day.  I'm happier and I'm a more effective missionary.  I know that as we read the scriptures daily, we are blessed with the Spirit of God to guide us through life.  Have a legendary week!
