Hey, guys!

This email will be a short one. We returned back late from our all day field trip to Corinth, the Canal, and Nafplio, and I don't have much time to email! Plus, I have a ton of pictures to try and upload!

TUESDAY, February 19th: We had District Council, which went well. The sisters taught about finding, and they literally hit almost every single thing we were planning on speaking about. The Spirit is strong in these ones. We taught a lesson at a hotel for refugees with the sisters, and that went really well. They have a baptismal date, and it is a little family from Uganda! 

WEDNESDAY, February 20th: We went on adventures! We did service with Agios Dimitrios, aka Elders N. and N. Not much else happened. We also had a whiteboard with Elders A., B., and K., which went really well. 

THURSDAY, February 21st: We taught English at the Friendship Center and did weekly planning with pizza. I don't remember what else happened.

FRIDAY, February 22nd: We went to the soup kitchen with Elders A. and B., and I felt like I was back at Chick-fil-A with how busy we were [Editor's note: Elder Müller worked at Chick-fil-A in Florida for a couple of years before his mission.]. We had two lessons with the sisters after that, one with a less-active and another with the Uganda family!!!! The husband had written out a list of words which he hadn't understood from the pamphlet! A guy and his daughter who speak zero English who know us from the Friendship Center saw us teaching the Uganda family and took us out for a drink (water). I got pretty sick in the evening, and Elder C. gave me a very inspired blessing. 

SATURDAY, February 23rd: We played football, and we met an awesome person at the bus stop and had a great conversation. The bus didn't let me off at the right stop, and I had to run back to the last one to find Elder C. We went to church for the baptism of two Greek gentlemen, which was amazing!!! They had been taught by two other Elders. We also ran after some friends in the rain/snow, so we played footie and ran all day in the cold. 

SUNDAY, February 24th: We had church and did a whiteboard. We met our friend G., and that was sick. We "slept" with the Agios Dimitrios Elders (another area in Athens) and the Zone Leaders. We slept over at their apartment because we were getting up at 7am on Monday for our Preparation Day field trip!!

MONDAY, February 25th: WE WENT TO CORINTH AND THE CANAL AND NAFPLIO!!!!!  It was a cold and windy day, but it was awesome! I've sent LOTS of pictures! All of the missionaries in Athens went along. The Senior Missionary couples helped transport us. It was an awesome, awesome day.

Love you guys,

This meal is not from the trip on the 25th.
Looks like a District Meeting

The following pictures are all from the field trip to Corinth, The Canal, and Nafplio. There are so many of them! Sadly, Elder Muller was unable to provide descriptions for them as he was hurrying to upload them. His time was cut short today because they arrived back late from the outing!
