Hi mother. I did get the package. Thanks so much! That
is so crazy that school is starting today. Is Ryan taking your class again this
year? Kid is a stud. I’m surprised that
Garrett is waiting that long. I thought they would be married way quicker then
that haha. Hope that goes well for them.
Mariah sent me a nice little email. Love
her already. She’s legit. That stinks Garrett has college starting up again
too. So glad I don’t have to do that whole school thing. Like serving a mission
is way easier lol just kidding!
So on the realz... this week
was super hard!
So many things going on
and not a whole lot of success. The whole entire week all of our investigators
were fruging us. They were to busy. And all of our finding efforts were not to successful.
It was a very humbling first six days. But
then Sunday came! After the storm comes the sunshine ya all!
After lots of prayer and lots of pleading for
help the Lord came to our side. He was showering them liberal blessings upon
us. So we have two baptismal dates at this moment and they both came to church.
And they loved it!
They both really felt
the spirit. That was one BIG blessing.
Another
neat one... so out of nowhere at the end of Sacrament Meeting I went around shaking
hands and saying hi to everyone and in the very back of the chapel I noticed a
woman that seemed familiar. I wasn’t sure where she was from but I knew I knew
her. And she knew she knew me but she wasn’t sure how. haha awkward.
So turns out after a little reflecting....
when I was a greeny in Charleroi
I taught her!
Then she moved to the
south of France!
I remember I was sad when she had to
leave. And while she was down there... she got baptized!!!
So legit. She really helped to make my crappy
week a little bit better haha.
Love when
that happens!
And I’m not sure if I told
you this either... while I was in Charleroi
we had zero baptisms.
BUT... 4 people
that we found and taught when I was there have recently been baptized!
So cool to see good things happening down there.
The Lord works in magical ways.
So about Sunday again. So another companionship
here in Paris
had a baptism and we took one of our amis. He loved it! He is pretty excited for his baptism now.
Hopefully next week when I talk to you I will have a photo of his baptism. Or
maybe in two weeks. We will just have to see. And another miracle about Sunday.
So all week we were not able to find any new amis. BUT after working for hours and hours Sunday
night the Lord blessed us with 2 new ones! They are super legit as well. Both Muslim
but they have a lot of hope. We will have to see how they progress. So in short... this week I learned the
importance of patience. If we endure
patiently... if we work our tail off... if we pray extra hard... and if
we have a good time doing it... the Lord will always be there to shower them
liberal blessings upon us! Hrd work and
faith always pay off. Alwayssss!
So to answer some of your
questions. We take trains and metros every single day. They take us
everywhere... wherever we need to go for 110 Euros a month. Not a bad price. We
do pretty much our own cooking. Lots of
the members live far away so its a little difficult to eat with them. And we have to eat out a lot because we are always so far from the
house teaching lessons and have no time to go back... sorry for spending so
much money. So hard when you live in the
most expensive place in the world. I’ll keep working on that. The people are
super legit. They are always super busy but we love them anyways. The stores
are really legit. Very expensive but that’s okay... I’m a rich missionary lol.
Hope you like the pics. Sorry that took so long. Have a good week! Love yall! Stay awesome!
BISOUS
