The last couple of weeks have been really good, I'm enjoying life here in Kielce its been really fun. Serving with Elder Diarra again has been really fun, he's a really good guy and we've been finding a lot of new people. We also had someone accept an invitation to be baptised this week as well so that's always really special.
This week we had zone conference and it was really good to go Warsaw again. On the way down I had a crazy experience. We had to go to Kraków the night before as there were no trains for us to get to Warsaw the next day. So we got the train from Kraków to Warsaw and while I was sat down a man came and sat next to me and asked how long I'd been a missionary for. I was really shocked and we got chatting, i said I'd been out for about 16 months, he asked where I was from and I said Manchester etc. and then I proceeded to tell him I had Polish family so it's a privilege to be here and all that good stuff, and then he said that he knew a missionary like me, that he was from Manchester and had Polish ancestry and I was like no wayyyyyyyy do you have a picture, which he did so he showed me the picture and it was my Josef! I couldn't believe it, I was amazed. Just goes to show that there's no such thing as coincidences, all the little things that led to that moment. It's amazing. Heavenly Father really is weaving the tapestries of our lives.
We've had lots of snow here and it's been super cold, it got down to minus 16 degrees. It's nice to see the snow again. That's my little update for today though.
Love you all, miss you all.
Keep the faith, never give up.
