So hopefully we can get that arranged this week.<\/p>\n<p>We also have a new investigator, he\u2019s been a contact on our list and\u00a0we&#8217;ve been over a billion times but he&#8217;s never home, but we finally\u00a0made contact and made an appointment. He IS the fastest speaking\u00a0German I&#8217;ve talked to&#8230; The members have told us that he talks\u00a0fast&#8230; my trainee didn&#8217;t know what hit him. And in my head I\u00a0was always\u00a0a few sentences behind. But we taught the 1st lesson again\u00a0and he committed to read so we&#8217;ll see how it goes!<\/p>\n<p>Later today we are going to Berlin for Zone Conference\u00a0tomorrow\u00a0and\u00a0spendi<wbr \/>ng the night in Merzahn with the one and only Elder Glissmeyer\u00a0(from my MTC group) it will be a hoot.<\/p>\n<p>Studied a little about &#8220;Hope&#8221; this week, Romans 8 gives a nice insight:<br \/>\n24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for<br \/>\nwhat a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?<br \/>\n25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it?<\/p>\n<p>Hope requires a trial of faith, really a time period patience with\u00a0faith that you will receive.<br \/>\nFaith that you WILL receive.
