There's hope for Galati!

So this last week was pretty cool. Last sunday we celebrated the 25th anniversary of the church's entrance into the country after the revolution. 

It was pretty cool. Elder Nelson of the twelve, the one who dedicated Romania, actually sent us a short message for the members. So that was cool. 

And we made the members a cake and had a little party after church. It was really cool and we got several less-actives and investigators to come and everybody was getting along and people were happy and loving and it was just so great. This branch has kind of a problem with gossip and members not getting along so that was really nice to see everybody happy.

There was also this super cool part member family that came! The parents are members, their son (14 yrs old) is not, and the grandmother is not. They are so cool. They haven't been to church in a long time, although they got baptized about 15 years ago. The sisters are meeting with them and very hopeful about it. I got to talk with the father and the son quite a bit at the party and they are so cool!! The son sings and plays guitar a little, and is just a really good person. 

Me and Elder S actually just today sat in on a lesson with the sisters and the whole family and I invited him to go to the EFY that they're having in Germany, and I think they're really going to consider it. They're just so cool and I'm really hopeful for them.

Those were the main points of the week, sorry for the short email but I don't have too much time.

Love you all, have a happy Valentines day haha!
