January 8: Jaj....crazy week

Hello everyone!! 

So I guess I neglected to tell this in my last email. I got a transfer call to go to Szeged as Zone Leader with elder Garrett! I was pretty surprised considering I had just barely gotten to Érd. But I got to move again. I love being here in Szeged. It is a pretty big city and the people are pretty awesome. A cool thing that happened on Sunday is that I was able to meet with a member that my dad baptized! She has been a really active member for about 20 years. It was really cool to see how much things that missionaries do can change peoples lives for a long time. I am so happy to be able to follow in my dad's footsteps here in Szeged! 

For P-day today we started it all of with a nice round of squash ball (sorry if the spelling is wrong). It is pretty similar to racketball except the ball is super super not bouncey. If you just drop it on the ground it won't bounce up. But, it is rubber so if you hit it hard enough it will get the job done! But yeah. It was a lot of fun. My companion has been here in Szeged for about 6 months and so he is pretty good at it so I lost every time to him. But I was able to toy with my rounds with the sisters in the district which was pretty fun! After that we went to a court to play basketball. It was an outdoor court and the material on the ground was really slick so it was hard to play with cuts and stuff. My companion played in highschool so he is really good. After the sisters left we had a 3-pointer contest (my companion and I) and I destroyed him every time. He has a lot better technique and is about 6 foot 5 so once we are down around the rim he can destroy me pretty much every time. But with the 3-pointers I could hold my own! 

I can't think of anything huge that happened this week. We got cussed out by a drunk bacsi because we were trying to help him and he kept telling us that we can't help him because we don't speak Hungarian.... I guess everyone needs humbling moments like these :) The members are really cool here. We are meeting with some awesome investigators and the Lord is blessing our work! It has been really exciting to see it grown, even within the short amount of time the I have been here. 

I hope all of you have a great week! Things are booming here in Hungary! Thank you all for your love and support and updates!! I love reading about everyone!! I will send pictures next week! 

Sok Szeretettel:

Biesinger elder
