Week #55
Happy Thanksgiving
Bonjour everyone! Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving!
Tuesday we had district meeting. I had to give a formation on working with members. It went pretty good. I was pretty sick so it was a little hard. Then I went on an exchange with my zone leaders in Paris it was super cool. They live about 5 minutes from the Eiffel Tower! We just did a lot of contacting it was pretty cool we taught a bunch of people and got like 10 phone numbers. Then we went over to St Ouen (my area) because a Peruvian family from our ward invited us over so we ate with them is was super fun.
Wednesday we started off the day with morning exercises. We jogged to the Eiffel Tower it was soooo cool seeing the Eiffel Tower that early in the morning. We were the only ones there. Later we taught a lesson in front of the Louvre it was super cool. Then our exchange was over so we went back home and taught this Muslim dude named Loonis. I don't think he is actually interested he just wants to see what we believe, but hey you never know. Then we had DMP meeting.
Thursday was a cool day. I went on another exchange with the other Elders in St Ouen. I went with the new kid. We had to go to the doctors. Then we went to an American store and bought stuffing. After I had to do these call things for the mission it's hard to describe. Later we all went to the church. We bought rotisserie chicken it was super good and had a make shift Thanksgiving dinner it was a blast;)
Friday we had weekly planning. Plus I was pretty sick. Then we taught Betty at night she is super solid! We taught her all the commandments and she didn't have a problem with anything!
Saturday was a good day. We have to start doing "Christmas Contacting" we just talk to people about Christmas. Taught some peeps. Then I went on a little exchange with Elder Brockbank - we went to a less actives house and he had a break down...he just started balling. So we gave him a blessing and he came to church! He is a really nice guy!
Sunday everyone in the appt is sick at this point...and we had to go to church so that was miserable. Then we just went home and slept. That afternoon this guy asked for a blessing who lives close to us so we went over there and gave him a blessing. Then we watched the new "He is the Gift" video it's super good. And just talked about Christmas with him.
Today so we get a call from the sisters that some homie is at their appt and has their phone number and is trying to get in. So we had to get in normal clothes (incase we had to drop some guy) and head over to their place. The guy had left. but the sisters are still freaked out. Then I just went Christmas shopping. Voila that's my week! Love you guys thank for all your prayers!
