Week 22 Ommoord Netherlands


EMERGENCY TRANSFER!!!

So Wednesday afternoon me and elder Tjong-Ayong were in Rotterdam south with one of the zone leaders and we got a call that elder Tjong-Ayong needed to be in Breda at 8 the next morning because he is getting transferred to Eindhoven to be the district leader!  So we had to cancel appointments, exchange back, and get him all packed in one night.  It was super crazy for him but I got the night off to relax while he packed. haha so I enjoyed it.  Now it's just me and elder Kettler and it's kind of fun because we both are really bad at Dutch so our conversations on the streets are a lot shorter.  

So Friday night we had our wards little Christmas musical and they had us missionaries sing in it. haha we didn't prepare so last minute we were like let’s just sing Rudolf the red nose reindeer so we did.  It was super fun.  Then last night we had the big missionary fireside and it was super cool!! Our neighbor Ellen came and she also brought two friends with her!!  That was awesome and the bishop came and introduced himself to them.  It was cool.  So the Gruppmans were the ones in charge of this thing and they are both super famous violinists so that was amazing and then they also invited a super famous organist and pianist.  It was seriously insane!!  I was sitting right behind the organist and it was crazy watching her play.  Then all of the missionaries got together and sang how great thou art.  It was just a really cool night!!  Ellen really enjoyed it too.  It is a lot of fun being a missionary during the Christmas season.
