Week # 48
Lucky #3

This week was so rad.

     Tuesday we had district meeting. We had to make the main meal so we had a burrito party. Also Elder Karl gave a formation about how to be a Ninja Turtle missionary. It was pretty funny. We got home and fixed a bunch of RDV's with amis. Then we went contacting and it not was very successful until on the train ride home - we sit down next to a lady reading an English Bible. So I start talking to her and she was super interested! We have a RDV with her for the next week! She is from Nigeria. 

     Wednesday we left the apartment, literally took 2 steps and contacted this lady with her daughter and we started teaching her a little bit in the rain. Then she is like "can you guys come over to my house and share this message I don't live too far away!" We were like heck ya we can. So we walked home with this lady and taught her the restoration and invited her to baptism and she accepted! But the bummer is that we have to pass her to the sisters because she is single.  We have an RDV with her Wednesday. It will be the last though. Then we picked up Elder Karl at the gare because he was going on an exchange with the other elders. We ended up getting two dudes phone numbers which was cool.
  
     Thursday haha literally one of the funniest moments of my life. We ended up watching this movie called Charley. It's a church movie but it's pretty emotional. At the end literally everyone was crying...but me...and it was the funniest thing ever. Then we went and contacted and taught some peeps. We talked to a guy from NYC.

     Friday. So this was cool. We go contacting, contact 3 people, teach 3 lessons and get three phone numbers! We were on fire! Then we weekly planned and got some kebabs to celebrate. We taught Betty, the lady who has a son on a mission. Her 30 year old daughter came too who is super interested. We taught them the Restoration and it was super good and spiritual. They'll for sure get baptized in due time.
 
     Saturday we had samdi sports and it stunk cuz it was raining.  There was a huge ebola scare, but I think it's all good. St. Ouen was crazy because it was France Vs Portugal and we live 5 mins. from the grand stadium. Our area we SHUT DOWN! It was crazy how many people were there! 

     Sunday was fast Sunday and it was really good. Also I made a plan for the ward to work better with the missionaries. It's pretty simple, but it was like gold it worked suuuper well. The ward loves us now:)  We put it into action for the first time this Sunday and it worked really well. Also a random family showed up to church and we got to teach them! Then we went porting and we got let in by a super cool dude! He is from Togo and is super interested! We have an RDV set up with him tomorrow! The sisters are having a super hard time in our district so pray for them! But yep that was my eventful week thanks for all your prayers and even better emails haha love you guys :)
