Holy
cow! Things are so busy! Sorry for last week that I didn't send out a
blog email. I was a little short on time, but everything is good here in
Székesfehérvár! My companion and I are definitely staying busy with our
investigators, while still getting in some finding.
We had a
baptism this last week, it was one of the Elder's investigators, and
he's probably one of the sweetest guys I've met here in Hungary. I kind
of want to put him in my pocket and take him everywhere I go. It was
really neat to go his baptism and feel the special spirit there.
Christmas
is getting closer and closer and you can definitely tell by walking
down in the belváros here in Székes. There are Christmas booths
everywhere selling Christmas gifts, food, and Hungarian's personal
favorite: hot wine. Yeah, that's popular here. The other day we were
walking in the belváros and there are stages set up everywhere, on one
of the stages there were Hungarian fok dancers. That was really cool to
watch, because I had never seen them, but they were super good and most
of them...actually all of them... were all younger than me. They
definitely had a really good skill.
Saturday
was a Hungarian Holiday. They call it Saint Nicholas (Mikulás) Day.
It's essentially just a gift-giving day. The night before, children put
their boots in the windowsill and if they were a good they wake up with
chocolate and other treats in their boots. If they were bad, they get
sticks and onions in their boots. Funny, huh? Saturday
night we had a Mikulás Büli as a branch. Elder Whiting was Mikulás and
the other missionaries were well...I'll just let you look at the
pictures and you can see for yourself (: Anyways it was a pretty good
week.
Love you all,
Whitaker Nővér
