It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

 Debrecen is extra beautiful right now with the fall colors.  This is the tree-lined street that runs alongside our apartment. The photo doesn't do it justice, but all of Debrecen looks just like this.  I'm getting my fall fix.
 These are some less-active sisters that we visited last Thurday.  The two older ones are sisters and it was both of their birthdays that day. Rozalia on the left, her daughter Eniko in the middle, Olga on the right.  We had a good visit (I just listen a lot but can't understand much).  We took them each a little cake and sang Happy Bday,  Elder Andersen gave them a thought about the plan of salvation. 
 Elder Steel, Elder Nyman, Elder Andersen, Rozalia, Enika, Olga.  Olga also had a photograph of Elder Josh Kreitzer, my nephew who was there about 12 years ago.

Virgil tracting with Elder Cutler.  I'm with Elder Brown on the opposite side of the street.  They are very nice to let us go tracting with them.  We always go back to this same area.  Nice little homes, barking dogs, interesting fences; we usually find friendly people that will come to the fence and visit.  The elders usually are able to make a few appointments to come back. 


 We traveled to Miskolc again on Saturday for Zone training.  The zone leaders do such a great job.

 Herds went with us this time.  They are the senior couple in Eger and are in our zone.
 We ate lunch in a sidewalk cafe (the temperature was perfect) then walked around the grounds of the hotel.



 Skipping now to Sunday.  This was primary today.  Elder Cutler who came to translate for me, Eszter, and Michael. As part of sharing time we made missionary sack puppets that they are all coloring. (I love the site SugarDoodle for primary ideas)
 For Sunday dinner we invited the branch president and his family.  His wife isn't a member and his two sons aren't active. We were glad they came. They are really nice and seemed to like our American taco salad.
The other half of Sunday dinner. Szabos, an investigator, Sisters Weberg, Kennedy, Oberhansley, Elders Andersen, Brown, Cutler, Nyman, Sister Michaud.
