Oh no not you again!

This week we were in a building doing some door knocking and it was just crazy. Every floor had something crazy and there was a lot of weird noise. "Oh no not you again" was written on one of the front door carpet. We also ended up being locked inside. Greece is a crazy country!
This is the end of my first transfer and I am probably going to stay in Paleo Faliro but I will have a different companion! I had a really good first transfer and I am excited to have 10 more!
I have thought a lot this week about my purpose and goals as a missionary. I have come to enjoy being a missionary, even if it is hard to talk to people and to keep faith. But I have been blessed so much for this past four months. I can really feel Heavenly Father's love for me. I know that if we follow His son Jesus Christ and we choose to live according to His Gospel, then we can feel this love from God!
Another funny story this week. We were door knocking one morning and we were really excited for the day. We were able to enter in a garden and a woman start to talk with us until a small dog showed up and try to play with us. It was messing around until it got bored and found another game, biting my shoes! So yeah a dog tried to eat me and he actually almost bite my leg haha. We finally decided to leave but the dog kept trying to eat me. That was really funny. Our Mission President told us that Satan could control the dogs and that's probably why all the dogs in the entire world are always trying to eat missionaries!
Thanks for your love and support!
