Monday March 23, 2015 Halle, Germany

Hallo Family! I really don’t think you know how grateful I am that I get to read your emails every week! Thanks for being so detailed! I do have one thing, will you send me a picture of the bracket every week? I would still like to be informed on who is winning. And If Duke loses that would be awesome too. And mom, I didn't forget about your birthday! As of today there is something in the mail for you! Hadlie...DO NOT break my phone please. Who knows if I’m going to have to use it when I get back! Colt..Sorry you didn't get a new phone. I would be mad too.

As for my week...
Montag: Went to the doctor for Sister Egbert. I hope I never have to go to the doctor here. It is worse than America.

Dienstag: We stopped by the soup kitchen to sign up for another day, because even though the nun is mean, we need to do service. We did it, this time without the nun even saying anything to us! We also taught David and Enrico. Enrico decided that our German is good enough now that he doesn't have to speak English with us. So that has been different with him!
Mittwoch: We got to go to Berlin for a personally much needed sisters meeting! I got to see a couple people from the MTC and Sister Lisonbee! It was really good and I love President and Sister Kosak!

Donnerstag: We had distrikt meeting and I got your Easter package! Thank you so much! Thank Grandma Bonnie also! She sent and a cute Valentine’s day package. Sis. Egbert was grateful for all the stuff in there for her too! Thanks! We also taught Trang! She is so cute and I love teaching her piano!
Freitag: We did weekly planning, focused a lot on David’s baptism that is this NEXT week!! I hope everything works out! We also had a relief society activity that was really fun! Crafts!

Samstag: We met with David again! Joni was there to, to help translate! We taught tithing and he has some pretty cool stories about helping other people!
Sonntag: Church! Then we ate as a ward and I made cookies. Amazingly, they turned out even though I had to substitute for brown sugar and vanilla! We also met with Lydia! I love her! She just broke up with her boyfriend of 2 and a half years! Poor girl! But she is still so great!

Well, not much time! Sorry! And my keyboard is broken, so sorry for all of the missing e’s and r’s. I really do love you and pray for you always! Keep David in mind! He is supposed to be baptized on Saturday! Love you!
Alles Liebe, Sister St. John
