"I Will Keep Counting My Blessings, Knowing That I Can't Count That High" Seph Schlueter

Hi everyone! I have a couple things to say before I go on to my usual (maybe once a month) email! One of the big things is that my older brother Jackson is turning 20 on Monday! I cant imagine two decades old, so remember to tell him happy birthday. The other thing I wanted to say is that this email will be a little shorter because I want to call my mom before p-day ends. Of course, one last thing for my BYU roommates if they are reading this, sorry I haven't emailed in a while and I love you guys!  Highlights of this week: - Went on exchanges with the lovely Sister Jones! I learned a lot from her and I am so thankful for her sweet spirit. She really loves the work and the people she teaches and I am happy that we got to spend the day together and try to make stuffed peppers (for the first time ever...it was a little scary). - We were able to meet with a new member who has not been answering us for a while and learned a little more about him and set up weekly lessons...

He told us that the patriarch would be coming to ankara and they needed translators to do the interview with the patriarch before the actual blessing. For reason, he told us that we would be staying the week! We flipped out! - We had all our normal appointments, a branch game night that was awesome (learned about some hidden talent of one of our members who literally should make an album), a Relief Society activity, a baptism, and even a mini birthday party for me and Sister Clinch (a member bought us cake :))  - We got to see Ankara! We traveled to the Kocatepe Mosque, The Roman Theater, Kızılay, Hacı Bayr...
