Greece from the Sky

Hello!

This week has flown by. 

Both of our investigators, Αλεχ και Θωδορης, have committed to be baptized. 

Elder Z. and I have been sick all week. He stayed in bed on Thursday, and then it hit me really bad on Saturday and Sunday, sore throats and running noses and burning in my chest. I'm on the tail end of it now and hopefully will be better by the end of this week.

Friday we went to proselyte in Manchester again. Just like last time, Elder Z. and I had limited success. I'm so bad at approaching people! I went off with Elder P., and Elder Z. went with Elder R. It was fun. Elder P. and I walked past this lady and then turned around and went back. We had both felt that we should talk to her but hadn't heeded the prompting. Her name is K., and we had a 15 minute conversation with her. She said she would read some in the Book of Mormon because she likes learning about religions. We talked to a Cyprite who has lived here in England since he was 4. He was nice and took a Book of Mormon. We also met a Greek. We only understood about 2 words of the 5 minutes conversation though! 

Greek is really hard, but I am trying hard. 

P-day was good today. We just got back from Chorley. I got some chips (fries). I think we have all been missing home a little extra today. 

We listened to a devotional by President Uchtdorf about “Fearing No Man” (learn more about President Uchtdorf here). It was really good. 

I planned on writing a lot more but I am wiped from p-day.

Love you all,

Elder Müller

Elder Müller wasn't able to send many pictures this week, so the aerial views are from a family friend who is a pilot who flew over Greece recently and sent these pictures to us.
