To Paris With Love

Week #34

 Soldes

Hey peeps!

     Tuesday was super cool. We had district meeting in Paris! We did a district meeting activity after and we all went to Notre Dame and ate lunch at a place right next to the Cathedral, it was super fun. There was a guy running around in a mask scaring people.  I got it on video but can't send it! I then went on an exchange with Elder Johnson. I just showed him around Auxerre in the night and we went contacting. 

     Wednesday we were still on exchanges. It was the first day of "Soldes" - which is like this giant thing where all the stores sell their clothes for super cheap. Elder Johnson and I went and hit that up. I bought a new brown suit and I love it:) Then we ate at a kebab shop and took a train and met up with the other elders. We taught Tsiry and her two boys. We fixed a baptismal date with her for the 13 of July! Later we contacted some people at the park, and then went and tried to see Marc but he wasn't home. Like a million little kids swarmed us and we talked to them for an hour, it was awesome.  

     Thursday we played soccer with Landry. After we went and saw Marc and tried to start a 'Stop Smoking' program with him...he didn't act too excited about it. Then went and saw Mirae and taught her the Restoration. We came home and tried to work out rides for a BBQ party on Friday. 

     Friday was really fun. The kid who was here before me in Auxerre had to come back to pick up legality stuff. His name is Elder Wells and the other missionary's name is Elder Cramer. They were a lot of fun! We went out contacting for awhile, then after that a member invited us to his house to have a BBQ party with his neighbors. He said like a lot of people would be there...it was us, them, the Judas family and one neighbor - haha. It was super fun though! And really good! 

     Saturday not a lot happened. This big concert thing was going on all week, which made it really hard to contact because it was super loud and it was in the middle of Centre Ville... So we did weekly planning. 

Transfers are next week! We went porting in this random ville and it was really fun!  

     Sunday Tsiry came to church. I got to wear my new suit haha. After we taught Tsiry really quick with some members. We taught her the 10 Commandments and some other important stuff. Then we went home and finished studies. We went and saw Marc again because he didn't come to church. He is still trying to stop smoking... That's pretty much all that happened this week!

This next week is looking like it will be a lot fun! I meet the new Mission President Babin and his family on Friday! Cant wait! Love you guys have a good week!
