Hey.

Ile zębów ma dentysta?

Sto ma, to logiczny!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHahahah h.. ahh....

Polish jokes.

Yep. It got cold!!

And it SNOwED!!!!

Like, really cold. So cold, I actually said "it's cold outside" Dang. But when it snowed it made it all ok, as if there was actually a reason for it to be cold. But now it's all hardened to ice, and made walking around really hard for everyone. It's funny to watch everyone on the street slip and slide, though. But here in Poland, everyone wears these GIANT scarves that are basically blankets that you wrap around your face, and I got one and it's amazing. So nie bójcie się o mnie.

But our investigator pool froze up with the winter as well. No one really has dropped us, but no one is responding to us. Just answering machines. I don't know if they're all still out of town, or got scared off. But one investigator we're meeting with is still coming. But he's not on track for his baptismal date, and I think that because Elder Platter can speak the language really well, he's becoming more argumentative, and we're finding out other problems of his. BUT this is ok. Because with the guidance of Elder Cutting (our branch president) the search for potentials is changing. Not really hugely, but missionaries here have kind of gotten to the point where if someone talks to them they're considered a "golden". But Elder Cutting is really pushing on us the fact that the scripture says the field is white already to harvest. Not yellow to water, or brown to plant, but white. So we're finding the white, and those yellow or brown people that we've been trying to work with will have another chance later when they're fully prepared.

I miss skiing... And winter sports in general. We don't know if ice skating is a winter sport, but i really want to do that. But we do play pool- that's allowed. Even though it starts with P which rhymes with T and that stands for Trouble. But hey- it's fun.

Yeah, really, the Book of Mormon is the answer to any gospel question someone has! If you don't know if the Word of Wisdom is really an inspired commandment, find out if the Book of Mormon is true, which means Joseph Smith was a prophet of God, and that that commandment really is from God! Piece of cake!

Study it, though. I mean, there's no rule against asking God again whether or not it's true. He's not going to tell you "sorry, I was mistaken last time" He's going to say "of course it's true! Thank you so much for asking!" And your testimony of it will again be strengthened and solidified. So don't hold back, please.

LOOOOOOOOVE

Elder Liechty

That's me. I tried to show you the size of the scarf, but you can't really see it (also it's a bit smaller than most of them, sorry)

And anyone wondering about that joke above, it says

How many teeth does a dentist have?

He has 100! It's logical!

Because dentistry is called stomatology or something, and you just put spaces in those words and it becomes a sentence. Nice. The Poles love that one.
