Well! I made it to Germany! The first time I went out street contacting I placed a Book of Mormon and got his contact info! Cool! Also, the first day after I landed, my mission president let us all sleep in! How nice! I will never know the sweet taste of sleeping in for the next 18 months, I may forget what it is. Haha.
I've been assigned out to Kiel! The crazy thing is, that is the last city that my sister served in! Now I'm serving there, and I'm even living in the same apartment she was in! Ahhh!!!
My second day in Kiel we went finding. My companion, (Sister Veslka), and I went to some student housing and rang a doorbell. The first ring let us in the door. (All places require a buzz to open the main doors without a key) We went all the way to the top of the steps and that is where we found Yan-Yan. She is a sweet girl from China. Her German is pretty good seeing as it is not her first language. She agreed to let us come back next week and give her a copy of the Chinese Book of Mormon. She also took our card, and seems very interested in our English class that we teach twice a week! I hope it works out! :)
I have bikes in this area so don't be too jealous when I come back and my legs are super muscely and toned. It's a pretty big place, and my companion seems to get lost a bit even though it is her third transfer here. That's okay, because I'm already starting to memorize routes and soon we won't get lost nearly as often. Ha.
Lots of work to get moving. The ward needs more members because there is one ward for Kiel. (Including little sub-cites around the area) Time to get a moving!
Love
Sister Rimmasch
P.S.
As I said before, MEMBERS are so important to missionary work, they are the biggest help for missionaries! So I encourage all MEMBERS to think about someone they know, and share the gospel, and if possible, ask the missionaries for help! Roleplay with them or just go out there and open your mouth! I mean, come on, you get to speak English, I've got to do this in German. haha.
