We had some fun things happen this week like: A zone day in Budapest, an investigator accepted a baptismal date, and we were able to meet with a bunch of people.
Let me talk about the most important things first. We got to have a zone day!! Our zone (made up of Kecskemét, Szeged, Szolnok, Békéscsaba, and Debrecen) all got together in Tihány Tér (in Pest) and had a fun time. There were about 20 missionaries there. Basically, it was our last time having interviews with President Szabadkai, and he decided to have everyone have a zone day too. Good times. We did fun things like: Throw a football around, play Settlers of Catan with Sister Szabadkai (she won, unfortunately), and watching a movie called One Good Man. I had a great time hanging out with our zone, it was a lot of fun.
Also, one of our investigators, an 11 year old named Tamás, accepted a bap. date for July 7th! He's been meeting with the missionaries for a while and his older sister Enikő is a recent convert. Hopefully everything works out. He's a smart kid, although sometimes he doesn't really answer questions. It reminds me of when I was a primary teacher and I'd ask the kids who Alma was. The answer: A person. But once you get past the silly answers, he's a pretty good kid.
Other than that we were able to meet with some former investigators, and some of them want to investigate again, which is cool. Unfortunately no one came to church this week, but we still had a really great time. We got a new ward mission leader, he's a cool recent convert, and I'm really excited to work with him.
I'm also still very terrible at taking pictures. I only took one this week, and it's of Máriahegy, a place on the outskirts of Kecskemét where one of our newer investigators lives. It's really interesting, because you leave Kecskemét where there are a lot of 10 story apartment buildings, and then you see this place with dirt roads and small houses. It has a completely different feeling.
Anyways, we had a great time, and this next week promises to be a good one.
