It's been a fat minute since I've sent an email. I don't think I've even sent one whilst here in Germany. I honestly appreciate all the emails I've gotten, and I read each and every one of them. Too much has happened and I don't want to send an essay, so if you want to know more about what happened, just send me an email. Anyways here's the rundown of where I'm at. I'm currently serving in Bad Bentheim with Elder Tillett. He's a great guy, and I'd say we're on the same wavelength in a lot of ways. We live in Rheine, which is 30 minutes away from the actual town of Bad Bentheim. Fun fact: Bad Bentheim is less than 10km from the Netherlands border. This week was a good ol' time. We had a split with Elder Fawcett and Elder Umsworth down in Hamm. Having some contact with other missionaries is a real morale booster, and we had some fun along the way. One of their members bought them some non-alcoholic beer, and we all gave it a try. One word about the taste: Naw. Just yesterday we were able to have our first in-person District Council in Münster with the Zone leaders. We had a fun ol' time. Afterwards we went across the street to a Döner shop. It was by far the best Döner I've ever had by far. Finally, the big ol' missionary moment. We have an investigator named Sabine, and she's been amazing. She actually approached two elders a while ago saying she wanted to be baptized, but they were just about to shut down Bad Bentheim as an area, so it never ended up going anywhere. She's been connected with the ward for a while, and we were trying our best to meet with her but it just kept falling through. She made us dinner this week and it was delicious. We also are going to be going on a walk with her to let her know that we baptize during COVID, and talk more about faith and what not. So sick. I can understand her pretty darn well, and although my vocabulary sucks I think I'm making some great improvements, especially with being able to understand. Love y'all, Elder Wilhelm *Don't worry, there wasn't any alcohol in it.
