Happy Thanksgiving!

Have to get a picture with food in it! We went to Donut Lab in old town. Super good

Labas!!

I hope you are all doing awesome! We had quite the exciting week in Vilnius!! To start off, we met with the Elder's investigator to help fellowship her, and we attempted to make cheese fondue. It didn't quite turn into fondue, mostly just melted cheese. But it was still pretty good. It was fun to meet with her and help bring her unto Christ. It was a fun experience for sure.

Then Thursday was quite the day. We had exchanges with the Sisters from Kaunas, but right after we met up in Vilnius, we were told to return home because there was a guy with a gun on the loose in the city. A lot of it was closed off as they searched for him.  So the Kaunas sisters stayed with us in our apartment, and the other Vilnius sisters joined us because their apartment was in the area that was closed off. It was a pretty exciting night to have us all in one apartment with a maniac on the run, but we were safe.

​This is our mega exchange while the maniac was out and about :)

  I thought it was super fun. The next morning we got news that he had been caught, so all was well. They had about 3000 police men after him, so no worries. We still had our exchange the next day, and it was really great! Best exchange ever :)

Sister Madison saw Sis Webb when she went to Latvia

On Saturday we had a baptism! Another of the Elder's investigators was baptized. His name is Arunas, and he is super cool. It was so amazing to see him come unto Christ by being baptized. It was a great experience.

Afterwards, we were able to watch Meet The Mormons in Lithuanian! The translation into Lithuanian was just finished, so we watched it as a branch. It was so cool. 

Then on Sunday we had our first snow for the winter! It was super pretty with big white flakes. It didn't last too long, but it was great. It snowed again this morning, so I guess winter is here!

Last night we were also able to have a lesson with a new investigator. He is a boyfriend of one of our members. He seems really interested in the gospel, and we get to meet again on Wednesday. I am super excited! I love being able to teach people; it is the best! 

I know that God loves each one of His children. I know that He answers our prayers. We have the atonement in our lives so that we can change and become more Christlike. Because of God's grace, we can become worthy to live with Him again. It doesn't mean that we are off the hook, but that by using the atonement, we are reaching up to accept his gift of grace. I know that Christ is waiting to help us if we ask. I love you all so much! Have a good Thanksgiving and be grateful!

Cool grafitti under a bridge. We found the good part: faith, hope, and love
