Bok bok,

We have had quite the week!! We went tracting last Monday and got let into the very first door we knocked on!! Wow. That was SO cool. We went tracting the next day too and got let in there as well!! It was awesome!! Again, greenie fire is real. So cool. But, greenie fire can't stop everything, and we got kicked out of a building... that was a first for me! A woman threatened to call the cops on us, so we left quickly. We also got a few doors slammed in our faces. But all in all, it was great!

Hilarious quote from Sister Christenson while tracting: (We knocked on one door (a lot of them are wood) and I said something about how it's great that a lot of people in the building were home and answering. Well, no one answered that door.)
Sister Christenson: "I guess you spoke too soon about people being home, but at least you knocked on wood!" Hahaha!! I died it was so funny. I am glad I have a hilarious companion.

Cool story: When we were in Zagreb for a day and went contacting with the brand new missionaries on their first day, we stopped a younger girl and talked with her and got her phone number. Since we were leaving the next day, I gave the number to the sisters in Zagreb. They called it and it was a man that answered. I just assumed she had given us the wrong number. Well, the sisters set up an appointment with the man anyway. It fell through a few times but then they finally got to have a lesson with him! And! It turns out that the girl we contacted is his daughter!! I am stoked. It was awesome to see something (even though I am not actually present for it) come of our efforts!! It was awesome.

I just have to say that the gift of tongues is so real. I have been able to communicate so much better than I thought I could, and it has been truly wonderful. I still make mistakes all the time, but Heavenly Father has been helping me so much and for that I am so so grateful. He truly qualifies us for our callings.

Another hilarious Sister Christenson quote: ("izgubljen" means "lost") (I couldn't remember the name of a character in "Meet the Robinsons.")
Me: "What is his name??"
Me: "OH! Goob!!"
Her: "His name was iz-goob-ljen!"
HAHAHAH. If that one doesn't make sense, sorry. Just know that I almost was on the ground I was laughing so hard.

This week was a good week. I hope you all have a wonderful week this week!

Love,
Sestra Locey
