Week 73 - November 9, 2015 - Hyderabad, India

Whats up everyone?  This week cruised by, I can't believe how fast the time is going!  Well on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday we were mostly in Bangalore for our meetings and exchanges but we talked about some good things.

We talked about how there might be some companionship problems sometimes that result from a lack of communication or cultural differences but how we should have patience with each other and always support each other no matter what.  I thing that is one of the biggest things I've learned is to not boss people around but become their friend and true companion.  Still sometimes we get frustrated but we are improving every week to become more unified.

Also we taught some awesome lessons when we were back in Hyderabad for the rest of the week.  I went to Madina Guda on exchange and I saw the first building where the church originally was.  Crazy to think that members used to meet in just a small home like 20 years ago.  We also met with this brother who served a mission so long ago and he was saying how the Mission President used to take all of the missionaries on trips around india for like 10 days every 6 months.  

Then this missionary who served here like 6 months ago came to visit his old areas and he was saying how the church has pretty much doubled.  He also said the prices have doubled also.  It was cool to hear some of his experiences.  

This week we find out if there are any transfers but our zone has been killing it as of late so we will see.  Bangalore will also become a Stake so that will be fun to hear what happens.  

Go cougs
