Sestra Sariah Sadler: Slovensko - Week 16 in Trenčín (some names changed for privacy)

This week, we met such a cool guy! We still haven't met with him but his name is Vatsug and we met him on the street. We talked about the importance of prophets and scriptures, so he gave us his number and told us he was busy but to try sometime. Miracles happen though! The next day, we went over to one of our slightly less-active's house, Sister Acorotkod who is such a sweet lady and we decided to bring over some banana bread muffins. We rang on her doorbell and Vatsug came out! I think he's either a cousin or her son. He's in Poland right now though for work because he travels a lot, but he said that he should be able to meet this week. We're so excited!

We also went to visit Sister Avokčíntes's house, she doesn't really come to church because she's older and has heart problems, but we went over and she gave us a bunch of clothes to donate.

We also had Zasvätenie, the Slovak anniversary of it's dedication for the church which was so amazing! We helped the members prep for it for two days out of our week. First cutting papers, laminating, and gluing, and then the second time cutting onions, garlic, peeling potatoes, and the elders cut lots of meat for guláš!

Zasvätenie was so good though, all of the Slovak members had the chance to come as well as some non-members, friends of the church here and listen to testimonies, some talks. and just converse with each other. It was beautiful. We hiked up Brezina, a hill here in Trenčín, and were in the forest!
