Bonjour à tous! How are y'all doing? I hope that you have all had a wonderful week and have just been serving all those around you and being good people. The world today can be such a crazy place and needs so many people who are willing to be nice and help others. I have been blessed to be surrounded by nice people here who are always willing to help and bless others. This week here has been awesome. There were a lot of amazing things that happened. Let me tell you a few of them.
Our friend Chris has been progressing so well lately. We had church this week so he was able to come and see what it was like. He really enjoyed it and wants to come back. He even participated in the Elders Quorum lesson and stayed for our Linger Longer. All the members came over and introduced themselves to him and were so excited to see someone new at church. We had a lesson with him last Saturday and it started off kinda scary. He had taken a few notes down from his own personal study of the Book of Mormon and told us of his concerns and of the things that he didn't quite believe in. We went over every point with him and just testified of all of it and reexplained it to him and it finally made sense for him. He thanked us for the reminder of the things that he already knew but was doubting. We had a really good lesson with him after that and talked about baptism and the importance of that. We asked him if he would like to and he said yes but not now because he sees the importance and wants to make sure that he is ready to make that covenant. We will hopefully have a date for him tomorrow however. He is amazing.
Our other friends are doing pretty good too but we did lose one or two of them this week so we are focused on trying to find more people teach at the moment. We have been doing a lot of service recently too which has been really helpful in meeting more people. We have moved so much wood and helped about 4 people move and helping at the food bank and clothing bank. It has been really fun. We have met so many cool people and have made so many friends here already.
This next week we have interviews with our president and Zone Conference too so that will be really fun so I'll let y'all know how that goes! Keep up the awesome work and find someone to help out this week. Pass around the positivity and be like Christ! I love y'all!
