A little soccer, football, and Ultimate Frisbee... :)

Hello Friends and Family!

What a wonderful week here in Rotterdam! Just so you all know...the Netherlands are doing SOO good in the world cup so far and they play Chile tonight. So connor....watch out, our missions are playing each other and we are going to win! Haha jk but it will be fun to see who wins. I also heard that America is doing alot better than normal so that is always good.

Yesterday we all got transfer calls and me and Zuster Kohlert get another fantastic 6 weeks together in Capelle. We had alot of good mix ups though in our district. Elder Elkins is headed down to Belgium and I am super sad that we only got to serve together for one transfer but I am super excited because Belgium is SOO awesome. There are a few other elders that are leaving and going to different places which is bittersweet. We had a huge zone pday today in Den Haag and played sports with the Den Haag zone and Rotterdam zone. Its so funny because now we are considered the old missionaries and all of the new little elders coming in I have no idea who they even are. Its such a weird feeling because I feel like I was just that little greenie that barely knew anybody and was still in that culture shock phase. But we were there basically all day just running around having a good time...which is always needed on a good pday. We had a really great week over here in Capelle and we are staying really busy. I was asked to give a talk in church last Thursday so of course I said yes. Come to find out...President and Zuster Robinson were also coming to give talks which just added to my nervousness. Haha its always a little bit nerve racking to give a talk but then do that in a foreign language. But compared to last time...it was soo much easier and it went really good. Have I ever mentioned how much I just love my mission president and his wife? They are seriously the coolest people Ive ever met.

We found this really cool new potential investigator this last week and his name is John. Me and Zuster Kohlert were walking home from an appointment with an investigator and he was walking on the other side of the street. We both had a prompting that we needed to go over there and talk to him about the Book of Mormon, so we did. Turns out, he had heard alot about the book and was super interested to learn more so we made an appointment with him for this upcoming week. The Lord works in mysterious ways. We are seeing so many amazing miracles with our investigators and our baptismal dates. Serenity and Usha are still planning on getting baptized the 19th of July and are progressing soo much. They love church and are always wanting to learn more. We have a super crazy week planned and are always busy finding new investigators and people to teach. I love you all and miss you! Have a great week!

Love, Zuster Brophy
