Last One

Hey, guys! It's the last weekly email!

TUESDAY, September 3rd: We had district council and ate lunch at Skalakia (little tavern on some steps). We did Voice of the Lord survey while street contacting, and it went pretty well. We ate Ancho's with E., M., and R. and then did a whiteboard with them. Elder Z. pretty much handled the board and everyone else was having long conversations. The youth in Kifissia love the boards. 

WEDNESDAY, September 4th: We at a McDonald's with S., and I bore my testimony about the Book of Mormon and how important church is. We met with G. (recent convert). We went to a Bible Study, and it was interesting. I am grateful that the Gift of the Holy Ghost is active on the earth and the priesthood authority to bestow that gift has been restored through the prophet Joseph Smith.

THURSDAY, September 5th: We taught at the Friendship Center and ate lunch with N. She's an absolute baller and asked questions about church, but as I was explaining, she said, "Wait, you're teaching me right now! This is how you get them!" It was pretty funny. We had a lesson with A., and it went well. We did a whiteboard in Marousi, and that was it. 

FRIDAY, September 6th: We helped H. in the morning before working at the soup kitchen. We were short volunteers, and I was doing the jobs of three people: grabbing dishes, washing, rinsing, and at times, drying, plus refilling the water pitchers. I felt right at home back in the food service industry. We saw N. and A. We visited M., and we installed the Gospel Library for him. There were looooads of kids at the metro stop because it was the Day of Positive Energy. They have concerts and stuff at the old Olympic Center.

SATURDAY, September 7th: We had an incredible day. We had lesson with R., and it was amazing. Then, we saw K. and taught S. We read 2 Nephi 3 with S. so that he could start to understand the Restoration better and why Joseph Smith is important. We went to Ancho's again with E., M., and R. and did an absolutely amazing whiteboard after. Being able to help people who are going through the same things you went through a few years ago is a strange but comforting feeling. I know we go through certain things so that we can help others who will go through the same or similar.

SUNDAY, September 8th: M. came to church today, and we gave him a blessing that according to his faith he would be able to read better so that he can study the scriptures. He came to church in Halandri with us as well and started to try to read in the lobby. By the time sacrament meeting started, he came up to me as he was walking into the chapel. He was crying and clutching the Book of Mormon to his chest. He said, "I can read." It is pretty amazing to be part of one of those experiences. E. and M. from the whiteboards came to church! Elder Z. and I bore our testimonies, and I played “Come, Follow Me” as a musical number. Elder Z. and I went to have food with D.. G.G., and R. after church, and it was amazing. We smashed out a whiteboard in Syntagma after that.

MONDAY, September 9th: We are on our way to Hydra right now. We will be the first missionaries to ever step foot there! 

I love you all. The church is true. The Atonement is the most important thing to ever occur and needs to be the center of our lives. I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I know it. I live it. I love it. I know who I am. I know God's plan. And. I will follow Him in faith. 

I love my mission. 

Elder Müller
