Last week was pretty awesome!
Nanou is going to be baptised on the 22 and the elders also have an investigator that will most likely be baptised the same day so it will be really cool. Im excited. We taught her this week and it went well. I made some cookies for them. American cookies are a rare thing around here. They seemed to like them so i think it was a good idea.
This week seems to have been a series of unfortunate events.
1. We were robbed by gypsy children. When the sisters from perpignan came for exchanges we were by the tram buying them passes for the day when these children came begging for money and trying to take our food. They crowded around the machine and zhen they got the chance they pressed the cancel button on the machine so all the money got spit back out and they all swarmed on it and ran away.
It was pretty sad. I realized that as a missionary i get to see the true state of the people in this country cause I see them in their everyday lives.
2. I went to perpignan for exchanges and while I was there my companion here in Montpelier and the other sisters were contacting in our usual place and this guy came and started harrassing them saying that contacting was illegal though it is totally legal and he eventually brought over some police. They ended up calling president and it got all figured out and they werent arrested but it was close.
We met a bunch of cool people throughout the week that I hope we will be able to teach. This week we have a conference so that will take up about a day and a half. But it will be really good.
Thanks for everything! I love ya lots!
oh by the way I realized that as of last monday I have already been out here for 2 months! how crazy is that?!
jusqu’à la fin!!!
