Hello everyone!
So last week was pretty good. I have expanded my list on why I dislike dogs. I loved dogs before my mission but during it my feelings have flipped. Up till now it has been because we would have to stand at a gate for a while waiting for the person to answer the door and while we are waiting there is a dog that wants to kill us on the other side of the gate that wants to kills us. I swear that dogs have a missionary sensor built in. Because when other people walk by some of these dogs, the dog just sits there and doesn't do anything, but as we walk by they start going insane trying to break down the fence and eat us. Another reason why, that I discovered more this last week, is because people always dog us. We had soooo many lessons planned for this week, but we would walk up to the doors and 1) no one would answer or 2) someone would answer and say that the person we were looking for isn't home and that they don't want to listen to us. Then we would just go out and start tracting!!! Yipeee! But it is good. I am enjoying my time here in Szeged immensely. The members are nice, the people are mostly rendes!
We met with one of our investigators that is living with her boyfriend and not keeping the Law of Chastity and stuff and the missionaries have been trying to get her to get married for a long time. She has been with her partner for 11 years!!! The lesson went well. We talked a lot about it with her and she agreed that by the end of February she would talk with her partner and pick out a marriage date! Little by little she is getting closer. She really wants to be baptized and she is keeping all of the other commandments and stuff, just this one....
Yesterday on our way back from tracting there was a man that was waiting for the same busz as us. We quickly learned that he wasn't completely there mentally. He started talking to us and learned that we were from America. He also saw my companions scarf and that had his city's name on it. I guess he wanted a souvenir or something so we told my companion that we had to go with him so that he could grab a scarf from his apartment and trade it. My companion wasn't very willing and didn't really want to give it. We got on the busz with the man and he sat next to use and told us that he had a really good scarf. As we were riding another man got on that new man #1 and man #1 asked man #2 where he was going. Man #2 said that he was going to go get a beer. Man #1 got really excited and jumped out of his seat and, much to the chagrin of Man #2, went with man #2 and sat by him. I guess we can learn from this is that we should appreciate the small miracles in life. We were able to keep my companions scarf and not offend anyone!
I think that is everything for this week! I didn't take many pictures but there might be some next week!!

This was just us last week at a big church here. They didn't turn out very well.
And the pizza is a 60 centimeter pizza that my companion and I were crazy and bought. It was pretty good. I could barely eat 2 slices....
