Full of Ups

Elder Pinyon wrote the update through as a reply to my email that I sent from last week. I will mentioned most of the things that he have said. It's not my fault for the spelling errors. 

"This week was full of ups and downs, but I would like to focus on the ups this week. So to start off, I had an awesome P-day, I went to the Berliner Mauer (Berlin Wall), Brandenberger Tor  (you will have to google it if you can) and also the Berliner Dom (Berlin Cathedral). I can add photos in another email. It was so much fun. 

So now to the good stuff, the missionsarbeit (missionary work). This week was encompused with a lot of finding, but that is ok, unfortunately we didnt find anyone, but the highlight of the week was Saturday for me. We a FamilienFest 2014 (Family fest) it was so much fun. We were on a stand of pinates, there were other stands like hitting nails into wood, family history, prophets and so many other things that all related to the gospel. That was all fun and games. 

Shortly after we were invited by the sisters to go and help teach an investigator that will be getting baptised very soon. They taught him about the priesthood and he was desiring a priesthood blessing (remember he is German). We than said well we have 2 elders and a member that hold the priesthood that can bless you, who would you like to give the blessing. And I still dont know why, but he asked me to give the blessing. It was the most scariest moments in my life, I dont think I have prayed so hard so I could speak German. I dont remember what I said, but I remember the feeling and all I could feel between I put my hands on this mans head and when I said amen, was the love of our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Later we found out, that was all that this investigator could  feel as well. I know that God loves us and that He wants to bless us. We just need to be prepared and opened to let His blessings flow through us.
