First week in Lubeck

Hey y'all, super quick letter this week. I arrived safely in Lübeck on Tuesday afternoon to meet my new companion, Elder Jensen. He's really quiet but super nice. Did a semester at Snow College before his mission. We definitely have things to do here. We have some pretty solid investigators and a supportive ward.  I already miss Berlin and my district there--here are a few pics from train station and saying goodbye to the District:

We spent the week introducing me to everyone that we teach. We went invited two people to baptism, one accepted! Saturday night we had a lesson with a man from Iran named Hesam and invited him to baptism after we taught the plan of salvation. He accepted a baptismal date at the end of this month. He only speaks a little German so we have a man that was baptized last year translate everything into Persian. He does a great job translating and is actually the one that brought Hesam to church. 

Friday evening we had a missionary activity at the church. We did not have a good turnout but we made it worthwhile by teaching everyone there how we as missionaries teach the restoration. It got the bishop fired up and now he wants everyone in the ward to get the same type of training.

Saturday evening I had phone interviews with the senatorial offices in Wisconsin for congressional nominations so I can get back into the Air Force Academy. I think they went okay. I'll be excited to hear back from them next month.

We had a good turn out at church yesterday. The people in our ward here are mostly over 50 years old so it is an interesting dynamic. I got to stand up, introduce myself, and bear my testimony. I think I made a good impression on everyone. Naturally, they all love my name. We had a random guy from London walk in and stay for the services. Super nice guy studying music here. We're supposed to meet with him this week, hopefully that goes well.

Hopefully we can commit another person or two to baptism this week. I wish everyone well!
