Highlights:
- CHRISTMAS!!! It was an amazing day filled with missionaries, presents, food, football, friends, singing, laughing and fun!!!
- The streets of București better watch out cause I'm officially legal to drive here!!!! 😎🚘
- Exchange with Sora Reeve!!! She is so awesome and was my STL last two transfers in Arad!! It was so fun to learn from her again!!!
- Lunch at the Brînarus!! We had some fire Sarmele, cozonac (usually not good but it was homemade), and tiramisu. We also had some not so fire homemade sausage but I would rather not talk about that one (🐐+🐖=🤢🤮) I seriously love this family though and they make me laugh so hard every time we go over.
- Mini Exchange with Sora Eliason!! Went with Sora Fowler to exchange with the sisters in Panduri (the other branch in București). We had lunch at this super cool café and then went finding for a couple hours. It was a party for sure.
- Exchange with Sora Nunez!!! We went back up to Timișoara! Sora Nunez is so awesome and she was one of my first STLs. So the last time we went on an exchange, I was in training!! I just loved talking with her and getting her advice and learning from her.
- We also contacted this super cool referral who had an amazing story in finding christ, and actually had the Book of Mormon recommended to her by her pastor. 🤷♀️ We a great discussion and some of her other family members were interested too!!
- Taught a lesson to this girl who is making a documentary on lds missionaries here in Romania, so she films all our discussions 😬 (its lowkey scary but at least I get to talk uninterrupted for once haha)
- Visited Sora Stoica!! This cute, older, fiesty member. Last week I didn't buy the right mamaliga (polenta) for our activity and she told me she was going to beat me 😶, but we're friends now after helped her cook it all. She is actually super sweet too though and made us an amazing meal.
Not-So-Highlights:
- On the way back from Timișoara we bought 6 tickets so that we would have our entire sleeper train cabin to ourselves. But when we got on we realized that the lady had actually given us 3 for one cabin and 3 for another. Luckily though we stayed with this super nice couple from Arad. They were really interested in us and our missions. We were able to get their info, and I was able to tell then where the church is there!!
Gând Spiritual:
"Being a disciple of Jesus Christ is not just one of many things we do. The Savior is the motivating power behind all that we do."
- Elder Uchtdorf
I love this quote as we go into the new year. As I've been able to review this last year I've realized how true this statement can be. Obviously I've been a fulltime disciple of Christ for most of this year, but I know that this motivating power can be applied to anything and everything we do! As you go into this year I invite you to evaluate your motivations and align them with Christ. I know blessings will come and you will find more joy as you do this!!
Vă iubesc și La mulți ani!!!
Sora Hansen
