"so I'm in zagreb, the capital. as you probably know im super busy but its a lot of fun.
the work is hard but its not going to get me down. we're working really hard to find new investigators right now. we have about 3 investigators, soon to be none. our first investigator is K.C. from Nigeria. he doesnt speak croatian so we teach him in english, which is good for me. he's ready for baptism and really wants to receive the gift of the holy ghost. we reviewed with him the baptismal interview Q's and he is doing great with all of those. he knows that Joseph Smith was a true prophet and is working to keep all the commandments. the only problem is that he cant get work papers here and cant get a visa either, so he has to go back to africa. it kinda feels like crap but i know he'll get baptized. to make sure that happens we're giving his info to the elders in africa. I'm kinda bummed that he won't get baptized here but I'm just really excited for him to get baptized and it doesnt matter who or where its done. he's amazing.
our other two investigators are a mother and son named Izdenka and Sandro. they're interested but theyre in a bad situation with her huband. he's abusive and everytime we meet with them they wont let us teach them because they just cry to us about how bad it is. we listen but there's not much we can do. luckily they're moving out, so we're just waiting until that happens. the people here are kind of cold and stubborn, but every once and a while we find someone great and they will listen to us. its hard but we're both dedicated to this work and will do anything to see it progress. other then that im doing great. there's been a few hard days so far but its worth it. my language is progressing and i'm excited to continue to work on it. so yeah right now i'm just getting used to croatia. still cant understand anything really, but people say i speak well, so i guess that's a good thing. My trainer is elder anderson, he's amazing and works me hard. he's determined to make me the best speaker croatia has ever seen. so we'll see how that goes."
