Szervusztok!
This week has been really good! Below are two paragraphs that I wrote to my Mission President.
This week has been one of little and big miracles. Last Saturday we invited one of our investigators, Dardai Ilona, to be baptized. She has changed a lot since we last asked her and she agreed to be baptized. She says that if we feel she is ready then she thinks that that is her answer from God. She has stopped smoking and now fills the time when she would have been smoking, with reading the Book of Mormon. We set her date as June 17.
Our second miracle from this week actually happened yesterday. We were meeting with one of our invetsigators, Vadasz Olivia, and we invited her to also be baptized. Vadasz Olivia was found a couple weeks ago and last time we met with her we were scared that she wanted to stop meeting. She told us that she doesn't want to join our church for a long time. But it has been really cool. Whenever we start a lesson with her she is usually sad and has a lot of stuff on her mind, but when it is over she is radiating and laughing. This has happened every lesson. It is a powerful testimony of what the Holy Ghost can do. She has also learned to recognize the Holy Ghost and his promptings. She loves the feeling and points it out often. She loves to pray because she always feels peaceful. But anyway, we asked her to be baptized and she told us that she really wants to become clean and that she thinks that this is the only way, but she wants to pray about it and see if it really is. We were very happy for her. She will be coming to stake conference.
This week we are going to start teaching one of our investigators how to read so that he can read our of the Book of Mormon. It is going to be cool!
Another clippet
Szirmai Laszlo, is slowly but surely progressing. We have been talking about how we need to rely on God through these times and do the simple things like reading the scriptures, praying everyday and coming to church. He has been having a hard time accepting that, but we talked about it more and now we send him a prayerfully chosen scripture everyday that he said that he will read. He also is starting to open up to us a lot more. We felt like we should bring our new convert Luca to the lesson and that was a really good idea. She connected really well with him because she had had lots of similar problems.
We were able to go to a members house this last week and my companion was showing them his pictures and the last picture is of him and another missionary in a previous transfer. The father looked at the picture, at my companion, back at the picture and said "Sok Tészta" (Lots of pasta). and he hands it to another member there and she said "es zsir, es cukor, es kenyér" (and grease and sugar and bread.) I was laughing my head off from the first comment, but my companion was clueless for the longest time and I was laughing forever. These people where calling my skinny companion fat! Super funny! The family was a lot of fun and the energy levels there remind me a little bit of my families! Super crazy!
I think that is it! Here are a couple pics from dinner last Pday!
Sok Szeretettel,

Actually... Dessert.
