HaHa Joke...

hahaha no just kidding hhaha

but this week was pretty good, last Monday we went to the zoo. zoo's suck.

Tuesday yeah i can't remember because i just got distracted by the fact that I get to go to slovakia!!! yeah woohoo! so i was guessing that i'd probably never get to go to Slovakia my whole mission but my next zone conference is going to be in Bratislava!! whoo hoo

umm now i have no idea.  oh yeah so this guy with the bible thing. hahaha so we have this investigator guy,  we were at his house the other day and he's all showing us this conspiracy bible stuff on this crazy tv show, but it was crazy.  on the tv show they were talking about this statue that was found in South America that depicted an antichrist who was struck down by an angel and then preached of Christ... WHAT?  ALMA THE YOUNGER!!! so i'm all like wait, pause it, pause it! and he's all like why? "what they said just barely...." then i went off about the book of mormon and he's like what that really happened and i'm like true story bro.

cookies, so last Sunday we were going to make cookies and we made them well "made" we got about 18 and burned about 36ish and but the people we gave the good ones to liked them.  but basically not my fault, our oven is awful. like it's just one big huge burner in the bottom and there is no temp gauge and that sucked. oh and i had to chop up candy bars because they don't have chocolate chips here? what?

anyway i hope you're cookies are not burned and also have fun with life. oh and you know waht i found out, so there's this prominent religion here called like "Hari Krishna" and they believe in reincarnation but the more times you say  "Hari Krishna" the more likely you are to be saved but this is the religion that does those big chalk fight things and at them they play this song that just keeps saying "Hari Krishna""Hari Krishna""Hari Krishna" so they're trying to convert you hahah

so have a nice week everyone.

Spencer

email that's short cause i'm outa time because i had to write my mission pres

so this is short because i had to write my mission pres a long email talking about an investigator and also sorry for all the spelling mistakes because i'm typing faster than this computer can process no seriously this computer is like worse than my calculator.

umm my week went well today is the last day for the senior couple in my area and then we'll get some new ones in on the Friday.

this week we had this sick trip to the top of this cathedral in the city.  it's the tallest thing, and then we just got to walk out on this little balcony and take pictures! haha is was so high, also the     i'll send some pictures next week but i don't even want to try on this computer.

Olomouc from top of Cathedral

bible guy some one email me and tell me to talk about him in my next email why am i hitting so many random keys.

also cookies haha they sucked some one remind me of that to

k and that's it. sorry for such a short one

but hey the church of Jesus Christ is the only true church, except maybe... nope haha... that was a joke, it's the only one. and through the church you can find happiness and through the atonement of Christ you can overcome any hard times. So just remember that with grandpa's situation.

tak ttfn

-Spencer.

p.s. mollie can you send me the recipe for cookies.

 

Howdy

hey everyone how are you, it's been quite a crazy week,

so on Tuesday, so well normal Tuesday, but in my English class i was asking everyone what their favorite thing in the Olympics was and everyone of the women were like, ice dancing... are you freaking serious hahaha that is the dumbest sport! oh my at least don't call it a sport and i'll be happy

so then on Wednesday we just had some lessons and stuff

but then on Thursday we had to wake up at 6 to go to Brno (1.5 hour bus ride) and then we had a training, sister McKonkie led it, and it was so good, she just talked about how we need to focus on the importance of church with people because you have all this time in the week and you have to think about all of this stuff all the time and then on Sunday you get to come and just focus your thoughts all on Jesus and it's the best time for inspiration. so then after that we rode back to Olomouc with the Lyons (1 hour car ride) then we had a lesson and then i got on a train (2.5 hours) to Prauge to do visa work

Friday i woke up at 6 with some of the Prague Elders to run with a member there and he is crazy! he's a pro rock climber and he seriously sprinted at full speed for 45 mins!  like i thought he wasn't being serious, i was keeping up with him for like 5 or 6 mins and we probably ran a mile and then i just fell so far behind with the other elders but seriously that guy was nuts.  But the run was sick, it was on this castle wall way high in the middle of Prague and when you'd go around you could see the whole city.  It was awesome. Then we did visa work.  It was really good no one in my group had problems. then i went back to Olomouc (2.5 via train.) and did normal missionary stuff for the rest of the day.

Saturday met with this way interesting investigator he has learned greek and hebrew and english fluently and is currently re-translating the bible.

Then we had church on Sunday and i was so fighting falling asleep in sacrament.  He was talking about missionary work. and mid speech when i was falling asleep almost (trying to look super interested because i''m a missionary and stuff) he, the guy speaking, asks me a question... (in czech) no idea what it was i just was so confused "jo" haha i was right "jo"(yo) means yes and he was asking if it's good to have members there at lessons haha so i was right but i had no idea what i was answering. haha.

Then today, this morning we had to go to the church building and help these construction guys haha czech construction smh. anyway ask me about that maybe, but i have to write my pres and stuff.

Spiritual thought of the week that you should all ponder about:  

When you need to decide something, pray about it, it really works. That's not just something that we hear annoying cliche stories about in Sunday school, but it actually works and it's super helpful, so try it.

hey p.s. ok jaynanne, see this, if you read the whole thing, it's quite long but i used this magical button above the right shift that's called "enter" it magically makes it so you can read it with out getting a headache lol. jk but seriously.

also. oskar, i'll let you use my turtle beach's until i get home if you do the book of mormon thing that i told you last week. but if you ruin those, unlike my long board you'll have to buy new ones.

ok, peace off.

Ohanna means family, and family means no one gets left behind. Or forgotten.

sorry i forgot to write you guys this week, i had a lot of emails to write.  hey, if you haven't sent my box, can you an American flag tie? oh yeah, and also, Oskar you can use my long board as much as you want just try not to break it, and also it's ok if you do just have fun and be safe, but you can't ride it until you finish reading the book of mormon and summarize the whole story in your own words in a 5 page paper that you have to give to mom and me and trevor and jaynanne. so get started right now while there is snow so by the time the snow melts you can be free on the road with the wind in your face, and if you want to reduce speed wobble then tighten the bottom. you can probably look up how to exactly do it on youtube.  but sounds like you guys are having quite the thing with grand pa here all the locks are keys both ways, you you have to use a key to unlock and lock it on both sides of the door, so if you get one of those that'd probably be good.

but i hope you have a good week, funny story so  my new companion whose name i'm not going to give you cause you'd look him up on face book was looking at my family pictures points at jaynanne "dibs" "what you can't call dibs on my sister" "to late already did" haha so yeah umm well also my investigators are doing so well there's this girl who's just so awesome her parent's mostly her mom and grandma though are way against the church so when she goes home this weekend she will talk to her dad about it, like the church and stuff. but she's so cool i can't wait to see her join the church. she's literally the nicest person i've ever met. She was the first czech person i met and i've seen her grow so much in these 4 months and it's such a testimony builder for me! anyway have a good time.

also mom, i keep putting 2 pleats in my pants when i iron them what's the proper way, could you show me with pictures
