Welcome everybody, I had a GREAT week so stay tuned!
Monday we went to the COOLEST city ever, Sighișoara, look it up, super pretty, everyone come to Romania and go to this city, right now
Honestly so much happened this week and I have so many stories so here are some highlights:
- had the bestest lesson with our friend andra, she liked my story on facebook one day and we decided to meet up and we met at a coffee shop and we taught the restoration and gave her a book of mormon and invited her to read some chapters and we left and she immediately started reading the book of mormon 🥹 also my romanian was pretty bad that day but the gift of tongues is real and I know she understood it #tendermercy
- taught some lady on the street while she was rolling a joint (like pulled everything out of her bag to roll it)
- met a Satanist while bloc knocking and left a plan of salvation pamphlet at his door ✌️😙 if anyone needs Jesus, he does
- some man opened the door and his bloc was hazy from all the smoke from his cigarettes and he had a giant bag of potatoes, basically super romanian man
- got told I can't speak romanian and I shouldn't even try ✌️ that #slayed
- ate at a romanian potluck and miraculously I am not sick #tendermercy
- taught a new member and we are helping her get a temple recommend 🥹
- we went bloc knocking and a doorbell sounded like an American doorbell (they usually don't) and I said "wow it sounds like we are in America" and my comp died, she thought it was hilarious hahaha
-had a cutie lesson with a friend and she prayed at the end for "jackie and samantha" and thanked God for us 🥹🥹
- we sang a song for a mission wide zoom and completely messed up the tone lol
So basically this week was amazing, I love Romania, I love Cluj, I love my comp, I love love love being a missionary!
Ok this really isn't a spiritual thought but more a life thought so just role with me (it may sound dumb but a mission has taught me to say what I wanna say so bare with me), today for p-day we went to visit a friend of the elders who lives in a little village and he took us to see his goat flock. We were walking back to the train station after our day in the village and I just said "man I just spent the day in a sat (romanian word for village) looking at the most beautiful country ever, eating romanian food in a random romanian house and walking through the romanian countryside, I'm not sure what my life has become these last 8 months but I love it" and I meant it. These last 8 months of being missionary have been nothing like expected but everything I needed. So my life thought for today is to jump into any adventure ahead of you, serve a mission if it's what you are thinking (you won't regret it, it's the best decision), take a train to a village, hold a goat, watch the pretty sunset, talk to someone on the street, it may just be the best adventure you take and be exactly what you needed.
Anyways sorry for a yap
Love sam
