Wow, what a week. I went to the temple in Germany!
To start from the beginning of the week, this past p-day we went on a beautiful hike in Romania that was seriously the prettiest thing I have ever seen.
Wednesday we headed out on a train to Bucharest to meet with all the missionaries that were heading to Germany. There was 6 of us missionaries total from Romania. We took a flight to Frankfurt and not gonna lie, it was weird to be at an airport again, but not to be going home. After a long day of traveling, we finally got to the Frankfurt temple late Wednesday night. The Temple Presidency gave us a special tour and they were seriously the coolest. Also mega miracle, one of the sisters lost her passport the day we were supposed to leave, and she wasn't able to come with us, butttt the next day she was able to get an emergency passport in a matter of 2 hours and fly to Germany by herself and still go through the temple!!
Thursday was the day we finally got to go through the temple!!! It was such a good day and we were all so happy that after a YEAR of being out on my mission, we finally were able to go to the temple with our Mission President & his wife.
We also did baptisms later that day and it was overall just a great day and experience! All the German church members from the surrounding area also cooked us tons of amazing food for every single one of our meals there.
On Friday we were able to go through the temple one more time, and then we headed out to do some sightseeing in Frankfurt before we had to catch our flight back to Romania.
Overall it was an amazing week and I am so grateful for the beautiful opportunity that we had to finally go.:)
"And we ask thee, Holy Father, that thy servants may go forth from this House armed with Thy power, and that Thy name may be upon them, and Thy glory be round about them, and Thine angels have charge over them;"

Hope everyone has a great week:))
