Week 19 Ommoord Netherlands

Thanksgiving dinner with our cool hats on

All three of us crammed in an elivator with our bikes

This last week was transfers and I´m staying in Rotterdam for now.  I have TWO new companions.  Elder Tjong-Ayong and Elder Kettler (we were in the same MTC district).  I love them both.  We all get along really well.  I really hope I will get to stay the whole transfer with them!  There are 5 people going home in the next couple of weeks so there will be a lot of emergency transfers.  It´s usually the threesums that take the hit on those ones, so I really hope they will leave us together.  We have a really awesome Christmas set up with the Teskes so they better not take me out of the Gouda ward yet!!  So anyway this week we had three thanksgiving dinners.  The first one was at the Smiths.  It was so awesome!!  They made us cool little pilgram hats and everything! Then the next one was at Rotterdam 1.  The missionaries were in charge of that one so they invited us and we brought our investigator Dhana with us.  It was super fun!  Our third one was with the stake Presidents family.  These people make up about half of the church here in Holland.  There are 10 brothers and sisters and a couple are stake presidents, a couple are bishops and so on from there!  It's crazy.  We had it in the church so there would be enough room and their family was bigger than the gouda ward.  haha it was crazy!  Sister De Jonge is American so it was a good ol American thanksgiving!  I loved it!  We did a lot of door knocking and contacting this week.  We got quite a few good potentials but no appointments yet.  Dhana moves next week so we really need to get our investigator pool up.  Elder Tjong-Ayong is the Chinese elder for the area so we are supposed to pick up the Chinese investigators, but turns out there really aren't any.... Yet!! Hopefully that will change soon.  Well all in all it was a good week.
