  This week was pretty cold week  Sometimes below 0 with windchill. We did decide to go out and do some street contacting tho and had an awesome miracle! We were not having a lot of success but then we ran into someone who knew us! He told us God told him he was to meet two guys today and boom there we were! He actually had clicked on a ad that referred him to us and we had one good call with him but hadnt heard from him since. It was so cool to see how God was able to make our efforts bare fruit. Also one time when we arrived back home Elder Uhlig said "SWEET HOME SWEET" so now thats our thing when we get back home haha anyways not much else to report! elder hassell

We also called up a person in our records labeled do not contact, and she called us back and at first thought we were demons and were going to curse her and all that voodoo hoodoo but we told her we were followers of Christ and taught her how to pray, prayed with her and told her about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ! By the end of the call she told us to give her a call anytime:)) Also got to attend a

  Hi everyone my parents suggested i make one of my new years resolutions to send my weekly email weekly! So here we are! Lot to update yall on so sit tight:) First we had transfers a little while back and i found out i was training again and my guy was coming from Germany! So we have been together for a couple weeks now and his English is pretty good! They also have a lot of cool and different traditions in Germany like they open all their presents on Christmas eve or eating their main meal at lunch instead of dinner (which is much more healthy by the way) We had an awesome Christmas, i was able to open gifts with my family and visit with members and even went caroling with other missionaries. Its gotten pretty cold here but not really a lot of snow in fact its mostly rainy nevertheless were still out there knocking doors and talking to people! I also wanted to share a cool insight that has changed my mission. I was with one of my companions (right before my comp from Germany) and i w
