im blowing away!!
on to this week! all that i remember was this last weekend.. but it was a fantastic one! we set 3 baptismal dates, 2 that will happen next weekend because theyre children from a member and were just lucky enough to get to teach them a little, and then one for the end of next month with peter! my fav! im really praying this one goes through on that date cause ill be transferred the next week so im being a little selfish! but this man is great and i love teaching him and getting to know him better! he has really taken a hold on the gospel and i love reading scriptures with him and seeing how well he applies them in his life.  the gospel just makes so much sense and he is loving that.  we also received lots of referrals this week that are all going places! and should be setting 2 more super positive baptismal dates this week. the only bummer is one of our progressing investigators that i really loved just moved to amsterdam so we had to give him over to the elders :( but im feeling super blessed right now with all the work im able to do and the difference im able to see in the lives of others.  were teaching one man (rene) who lost his wife about a month ago (i think of mentioned this) who has already started planning his own baptism! the ward has already picked him up and all we have to do is say hello at church and teach him during the week :) im hoping to see quite a few baptisms here before i leave and i love it! 
i just wish the wind would stop blowing!! oh my! weve had crazy crazy winds that freeze your face off! im not sure how fast they are but the wind chill has been around -15  to -20 and its not so fun.  we cancelled our pday plans today so we wouldnt have to go out in it.  i guess this is the coldest march they have ever had here.  i want to see pretty flowers! i live in the tulip field part of holland and am ready to see all the colors! but it will be here soon enough since time seems to fly by! 
ok thats all for now! tot volgende week!
love zuster j
