Another Transfer come and gone

Josh was excited that he will be staying in Bruck an Der Mur with his trainer Elder Botcherby till at least the next transfer. His companion is a new Dictrict leader and will be having more frequent meetings in Vienna...Josh was willing to tag along to Vienna with him :) Pictures coming soon the other computer is acting funny and I can't get to them right yet....

Some tid bits from his letter home this week:

Also, this week we had Interviews with President Miles. Mission presidents are really awesome. Its pretty incredible how they can remember so many missionaries. Honestly I thought that he wouldnt remember me, but in my Interview we talked about what I had siad on my first day. It was really cool. We talked about how we as missionaries can help members want to do missionary work. Its been something that we have been struggling with. Just a little bragging moment.....He asked me to say the opening prayer in German of course, and afterwards he asked me if I was "Fast-Tracked"!!!! That was pretty cool to hear! I think my German is really progressing which is a total blessing.

We had a couple of lessons this past week and they went really well. We met with a man named Mario. He is Austrian (first one I have taught)! We taught him about the Book of Mormon and a little about the restoration. It was really cool, at the end of the lesson we asked him what he would do if he knew the Book of Mormon was true. We were hoping he would say be baptized, but instead he said "I'll share it with everyone!" It was a really cool answer. We then commited him to be baptized once he knows it is true. He will be a project. Word of Wisdom will be something hard for him I think. We actually met with him in a Beer Garten! haha no one was there so it was actually a really nice place to meet. Deffinately a first for me!

    You can find official rolex replica sale just as easily as you can find cheap replicas. If you're looking for a bargain you can try eBay but many of these items are advertised as authentic and really aren't. Unless you're very experienced with hublot replica and you know what questions to ask the seller, you should get a little practice before you buy replica watches sale that can be easily faked. One good place to look is any type of biker store where they sell Harley merchandise. The good ones will offer official rolex replica sale and lots of it. Clothing, motorcycle parts, jewelry, watches and a variety of products should be available with the official Harley Davidson seal. These Christian Louboutin replica shoes have the instant pull, lure, enticement that only shoes of this kind can have. They are interwoven with the fantasies of rolex replica uk strawberries and cream, exotic destinations and dream evenings, perfumes and fancy cars, spontaneous romances and the starlit sky on a full moon night.

(at least at the airport) 3. dont forget that I am still a twenty year old. I stink. Don't clean up 100% of the time and yeah. So if you are expecting some perfecto.....then wait for Ry to get home :)  Goodbye to a good friend Brother Baumann  Last pday activity at the Porsche Muesum  (the first Porsche made )  missionary fun , trapped in the bedroom ...again  heartfelt love from the Ellwangen primary the Ellwangen District And this wraps it up ! well , I love you  see ya on Friday , For the Last time,  ELder Spencer

 A real live PORSCHE!  Schwabisch Hall  apartment view from Aalen , Germany   Church was good. I felt the spirit really strongly. Probably more that any other testimony meeting on my mission. It wasnt anything special that was said, but still powerful. There is a couple in the ward who recently had their first child, and she bore her testimony and said that children give us so much joy, and they are unbelievably dirty! haha Everyone laughed, but then she said that, that is just how our Heavenly Father thinks about us. He find so much joy in us, and when we get dirty, through sin, he provides us with the best possible cleaning supply. The Atonement of Jesus Christ. I know that is true. We have a loving Heavenly Father who wants us to make the right choices, but when we mess up, just like a little child, he doesn't give up, he helps us to get clean, and learn from those mistakes.                 The final companion Elder Georgiev from Bulgaria

 This is the "TRUNKY " letter telling this missionary he has done a great job and its time to wrap things up  Elder Georgiev and Spencer at a local Italian restaurant One of my Goals? Well, I am really trying on "continual prayer". It has really helped me here in the last couple of weeks. I mean, Im a missionary, and at no other time in my life will i be able to always be thinking about my savior, so while i have the chance I should use it. So, I have been trying to always have a prayer in my heart, and when I have a still moment, in a train, or where ever, just to offer up a silent prayer or something. its pretty good and something im working on!
