Week #49

Paris district leader

 This week was pretty cool and crazy.

      Tuesday we had District Meeting.  Elder Karl gave a formation on Engagements and it was really good. Then Elder Karl and I went on an exchange. We started off by teaching an ami that we found last week named Aristide. On the way to his house we taught a cool guy a good lesson. When we got to Aristides house we taught him a little bit of both of the Restoration and Plan of Salvation. Then invited him to baptism and he accepted! So that was awesome!!! After Elder Karl and I went contacting and took cool pics with my Polaroid camera.

     Wednesday it was pretty much my year mark because I go home Oct. 15... So got that over with:) It was cool because I was with Elder Karl still and we went to a mexican food place and ate lunch. Then we were suppose to teach a lesson to a lady we found last week named Ines, but she cancelled. After that we got our legality stuff figured out. Then we contacted at La Defance and got Haagen Das ice cream ;)

     Thursday I don't really remember what happened... But we taught 2 lessons that day... We had to cancel a RDV because our member had to cancel and we can't teach single women without a member. Later that day we picked up Elder Karl at Chatlet because he came back into Paris for legality the next day.

      Friday was crazy. We had to do legality so we woke up super early and did 2nd year legality with Elder Karl and another cool kid named Elder Powelson. We all came in at the same time and are all homies. It took for ever but we got accepted ;) Long story short. Then we went to the hill that they take us to the first day of our mission. We took a bunch of pics there. It's super cool. After that was done we ended up being 1hr late to our RDV we had with a member - the trains were slow because someone died or something on the tracks. So we went over to their house and ate super fast. Then Frere Futuka left with us and we went and taught Betty and Vennessa (the people with a  son on a mission) the RDV was epic! The spirit was super strong and they both accepted baptism! This week we are fixing a date with them!!! And because of the slow trains we didn't get home till late!

     Saturday pretty much just played soccer. We did weekly planning nothing else was really too important...

     Sunday was crazy. So we had church and it was pretty good just really loud.  An American couple came to church from Alpine they were super cool. Then went home and just called people. We had a RDV with a family from America and France, their names are Scott and Audrey they are soooo awesome! They made us super good food and gave us root beer haha. Our spiritual message was on missionary work - the spirit was really strong. They are going to share the gospel with their neighbor. Later on Sunday I got a call from President and he tells me that Karl is getting transferred. Elder Karl is goingto be  DL in another ville . I am now the Paris district leader, so that's new.

     Today nothing cool happened, not going to lie. We just got lost and I had to make a formation for District Meeting. We were suppose to mini golf...

 Love you guys!
