Hamburg! December 8, 2014

Moin moin meine Familie!

I hope that this email finds you all well. So far I love my new area. Langenhorn is a part of Hamburg at the very top and the ward here is also great. It is really weird to be in such a large city and to be surrounded by so many people all the time. All my other areas have been a lot slower and it just seems like everything here is fast paced. We have a lot of people as well in our teaching pool. We have two really promising investigators named Josef and Omid. Josef is from Afghanistan and Omid is from Iran. Josef just accepted an invitation to be baptised my seond day here and we are now working toward that on the 27th of December. We have a bunch of cool less actives that we work with as well. So far I have only met Josef but this week I will meet more of the people the ward is awesome here as well, like I already said;) We have an eating appointment pretty much everyday and the member missionary work is going really good!

I unfortunately haven't taken any pictures of Hamburg yet... We are going downtown today right after this as well so I will take more pictures there too. 
My comp is Elder Morgan Smith. He is super awesome! He is from downtown Salt Lake, he loves music, art and fashion and is a really great missionary. He has really built up a strong program here in Langenhorn and I really feel good about working with him. We get along really well. I included a picture of him. It is his mormon.org profile pic haha but you can see what he looks like.

Well the last thing I want to talk about is a video that Bro Roggow showed us last night. It is a really great ad that shows an awesome true story about the true meaning of Christmas. First watch the video and then read further.

The story behind the video is really cool. After that Christmas day all of these men had to be transfered on both sides because they all refused to fight each other further. The video gave me some tears...but not too many;)

On that same theme I hope you all have seen the "He is the Gift" video and have posted it further! if not here is the link!

Well I hope that you all have a great week and that you can start to feel the spirit of Christmas! I love you all! May the Force be with you.
