We had some good times this week. For P-day last week we went to the Diósgyőri Castle here, and it was a fun place. I took a bunch of pictures, which will be attached to the end of the email. A lot of the castle has been restored, which means that we get to touch things. They have an armory, where you can try out the armor and they have swords and shields. So we took some awesome pictures in armor. It was a good time.
Other than that, we had a pretty solid week. We met with the Naár family yesterday, and 3 of them accepted a baptismal date for March 31. It'll be fun. One of their sons doesn't feel like he wants to be baptized yet, but we are going to keep meeting with them and working them. They are such an amazing family, and I am so excited for them. Other than working with them we met with some other investigators that are doing well. We've got some exciting things going on here in Miskolc.ű
We also went to Debrecen on Exchanges this week. It was a lot of fun. I was with Elder Smith. He's a younger missionary, but he is really great and works hard. We had a great time working with them. Debrecen is a really pretty city and the people on the streets were pretty nice.
We had an interesting experience this week. We met a kid about our age on the tram one day, and we tried to talk to him. Apparently, he's been contacted by the missionaries a few times, because he just kinda exploded and started saying all sorts of curse words and terrible things. Not the most pleasant experience. Afterwards, we got on the train to go to Debrecen, and there we met someone who saw our nametags and wanted to talk. It was interesting to see how one person kinda blew up with no provocation and the other reached out to us. The man on the train lives in Debrecen, and we gave the elders his number, hopefully, they can meet with him.
That was our interesting experience of the week. Other than that, it was pretty mellow. We had a good time.
This week I wanted to share a thought from Sacrament meeting. One of the speakers talked out about love and how the first 2 commandments are to love God and love our neighbor. Then she said a great quote "Love is the road to happiness." I really liked that because I've noticed that when we really love and help those around us, we are way happier. It thought it was a great thought.
Szeretettel,
Terry elder
