Castles, Mud Masks, and Finding People

Fam!

The castle last week was really cool! I'm going to send you some pics. And the pics will be not of the castle but of me with missionaries haha :) So the pictures will be with Sister Heilner and her comp Sister Mashburn. (Sister Heilner and I are really good friends and she is a bomb missionary!) Then some of Elder Van de Merwe and I. 
 
We have a pretty good week! Here is the highlight:
 
 
We went to go look up this guy named Akinyemi. (yeah pretty cool name) So we got buzzed up on the apartment. And this lady (Linda) starts talking to us with the door closed and we can tell she is a little scared! So we explain to her who we are and what we do. and the door opens and we start talking to her and she wanted to come to church so we wrote down the address to the church and gave her our number. And on Sunday we get a call and it was Linda! She was a little late to sacrament but she came with her and her husband! She started taking notes when she started listening. She loved church. She was writing down all of the assignments and taking notes and saying see you next week to all of the members! It was fantastic!

 
We went on a lot of exchanges this week but my favorite was with my future college roommate! Elder Van de Merwe. We had such a good time. We did mud masks and taught lessons and found people! It was one of the best exchanges I have been on on my mission! I will be sending some pictures. 

 
Antwerpen is doing really well. Its about to explode we have found a lot of positive people now we just have to start teaching them and help them come to church! 

 
Most exciting story of my mission so far. I was with Elder Lindstrom. We were in the same MTC district so we knew each other. We had a really good day. But it was about 5 o clock and its really dark... its terrible. And we are riding our bikes. And we go down this street that is blocked off to cars but bikes can still go on it. And in the distance I see a guy and the closer we get I can see that he is holding a gun... and for some reason we kept riding... haha As a missionary you have no fear whatsoever. And the guy walks over to us and stops us. And we stop! He had a huge gun too. But then he asked us if we saw some military people and we said no. And I said should we go back and he told us to keep going. I was pretty scared but it was really funny after. He didn't even have military clothes on. He had a Chicago Bulls Beanie! haha It was pretty cool!

My week was just awesome! I hope you all have a great week!! I love you!

Love Elder Bosco
