The first full week of the Robbins-Lyman tenure is over and the office is still standing. And the van still looks like it did before. Yeah, they are doing well and seem to have everything under control, so that's good. Fortunately. And elder Loorbach has been teaching them how to drive with manual transmission, and after a few hair-raising moments, they have almost mastered it and are no longer a menace on the road. They have been doing a good job in teaching and finding investigators: they were not district leaders for nothing. I have also been learning a lot from them in regards to proselyting, and also helping them with the office tasks and such.
Yesterday, we had a great zone conference with elder Boom (an Area Seventy), where he talked about his and the Netherlands' past and then about our futures and what we should and should not do after our missions. About the people we should become and the things we should continue doing that we do on our missions. He also spoke about marriage, much to the ire of certain people. And today, we dropped off the orders at the second zone conference, in Rotterdam, and listened to the dying testimonies.
We had a fun time at the Stigter home on Wednesday (where elder Robbins spoke almost the entire time with a Buddhist). We will hopefully go do the "ninja warrior challenge" (aka "Brian Clark challenge") next Saturday. And yesterday, we ate delicious South African food at sister Anneveldt's house: that was fun too.
And this morning, we played first football and then American football (or eggball, as I prefer to call it). I did not really do as well as I have before, but it went alright. I need to work on interception in football, and also passing in eggball.
"Remember, I'm pulling for you. We're all in this together."
