Hello! Before I forget, mother, Tommy emailed me and told me
to tell you thank you for sending him a package. That was nice of you. When you gonna send me one? haha.
Just kidding. But for realz I
need a camera. I want to take so many
pics but I can’t! My other camera is
DEAD. She’s not in business
anymore. She hung on for a little but
all good things come to an end ya know?
Désolé. That camera was given to
me by the mayor? haha. That was nice of
him. I deserved a nicer one after all
the friggin weeds I pulled for him but that’s okay. C'est la vie n'est ce pas?
I swear you guys are from Utah. This last year you have been
there like a gazillion times. You should
probably just buy a little condo or
something eh? That would be a good
idea. Just sayin like save yourself some
money and buy one. Whitney sent me some
pics of Graham last week. Kid is lookin
like a boss. Three good lookin grandkids
so far? not bad. Garrett will have the first ugly one
probably. Poor kid. Seems like you be talkin to Miss Guisti a
lot. Thats cool. She’s the best. Tell
her hi for me. She’s been emailing me
but i haven’t had a whole lot of time to
respond. Tell her sorry. I would totally send you some new photos but like I
don’t have any! NO CAMERA = no photos. I’ll try to get some next week. If I
have a camera? Haha I think you get the point ;)
I’ll answer your questions.
We are in a foursome here. Four
elders in the same apartment and the sisters live on the other side of town
right next to the church. With 6
missionaries in the same ville we run into each other often. It’s pretty funny. Sometimes we will be contacting on the road
and people will say that they already talked to our collègues... and then we
look farther up and there they are.... the Sisters contacting everyone 3
minutes before we do. People tend to be
a little annoyed when they get contacted more than once in the same day. I try to avoid doing that.
haha. But if it’s been over 24
hours it’s okay haha. Life is good!
The soccer player is progressing well. He has completely memorized the
restoration. He has got it down by
heart. One night we watched the
restoration film. He loved it. He said that after he watched that was
exactly how he had imagined it. The only
problem... he’s not sure if it’s true!
Not yet anyway. Give him a
couple of days. A couple more rendez
vous and he will know. He has been reading the Book of Mormon as
well. vGuy is on the fast track to success!
The only problem we have with him is that its mid-season for pro soccer
players! He is a pretty busy man. And he travels a lot. HIs Team is in 8th. But they did win last Friday so maybe they
moved up. We will have to see. We see him tomorrow. Should be a real treat!
So this last week we were able to fix 3 baptismal dates and
we taught 18 lessons! Pretty dang
legit. This place is popping! Right now in the ward of Caen there are a
ton of potential baptisms! Yesterday at
church I think all together there was like a total of 10 or so amis. Pretty dang legit for France. (for anywhere I think? haha) Our zone training went super well. The Assistants came to watch haha and then we went on an exchange. Oh not sure if I told you but the new AP is
Elder Dussere! My old French companion. He is seriously my favorite. I love the kid. He did his first exchange with me as an
assistant so that was neat I guess. I
trained him how to be a zone leader so I always joke with him that he’s the AP
because of me. But on the realz our
exchange was way too good. We had two
solid lessons and did a lot of finding.
He taught me a lot. He is one of
the best missionaries. Sadly I only got
to serve with him once. But
whatevz. That’s life.
I’m not really sure what else to tell ya. I’m finally getting back into Little town mode
again. Being in Paris for a little while
throws a missionary off. Caen is not
even that small but after serving in Paris it feels pretty dang weird. I
forget sometimes that if we want to go to a Rendez vous we have to catch a bus for 30 minutes instead
of a 5 minute métro ride. But none of
that matters. Being a missionary is the
best. Serving the Lord in the biggest
place or the smallest place makes no difference. My purpose is the same wherever I go. Invite
others to come unto Christ! Invite others to make changes in their lives. Invite others to see what living the
gospel can do for their family. Invite
others to come to the true church of GOD! Simply put... to invite others to know the
truth. Knowing the truth changes
everything! Life rocks. Thanks for all
that you do. Keep doing it. Go big or go home. (allez
grande or rentrez à la maison!)
Here’s a little quote for ya... "If every member, young and old, will
reach out to just “one” between now and Christmas, millions will feel the love
of the Lord Jesus Christ. What a
wonderful gift to the Savior." E.
Ballard. Give the Lord the best gift
for Christmas ! We are getting so
close! BYE.
Love Elder Adams
