Week #60
Laticia
This week was legit I will try and fill you guys in.
Tuesday we had District Meeting. I gave a formation on goal setting. Then I had an exchange with an elder I live with Elder Williams. It was fun he's a great kid and really funny. We actually didn't get to do very much on our exchange. We set some fun goals though and just had a good time.
Wednesday was fun as well. In the afternoon we had to go into Paris for an RDV right next to the Eiffel Tower. They ended up being like 1hr late so we got to see the Eiffel Tower slowly light up it was super legit! Except there were like 59,184,354 people there because it was New Years Eve. So when that was done we left and we went to a members house and spent New Years Eve with these sweet members that are Tahitian with all four Elders. It was super fun they made us "American food" they are so nice. Then we stayed up all night and watched the Best 2 Years and watched all the sketchy St. Denis fireworks:)
Thursday was super fun. Happy New Year everyone! So Elder Karl had to stay the night because we had a leadership meeting on Friday . Elder Karl came in around noonish and we went and picked him up. We had the whole day off so we literally went and showed him EVERYTHING - Arch of Triumph, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, and Champs de Elysée it was awesome. Then at night time an American Family invited us over and we went and ate at their house. They made us hamburgers. They also invited over our DMP (who speaks english) and 2 Americans that he knew that are living in France so it was super fun. It was all in English it was so much fun. We didn't get home till pretty late.
Friday Elder Karl and I woke up early in the morning to go to this leadership council thing. It was actually a lot of fun. Got to see a lot of my buddies. The meeting though was suuuper long. They gave each table bottles of water so we started playing a drinking game... its not funny if I describe it in English but it was a lot of fun. Then Elder Karl, Elder Stuki and I were put in a 3 some it was super legit we just walked around Paris until their trains left. Then got back with Elder Young and we did some work.
Saturday was a looong day. In the morning we had a contacting session in the rain. Then we did Weekly Planning. Then just a bunch of porting and no one was interested the whole day and we had no RDVs...
Sunday was cool. We had an ami named Laticia that came to church who is suuuper legit! It was a miracle how we found her too. But she actually came to church and she told us that her New Years resolution was to come closer to Christ and go to church. She said she feels the Spirit here, so the next time she is going to bring her whole family. We also had some other amis at church too. Victors baptism is scheduled for next week, but who knows with him... Then earlier we found a building full of people from Nigeria that speak English and most of them are single woman so we passed the whole building to the sisters - they found like 5 new amis just porting for 1 hr so that was cool. Then we got bailed on by one of our amis. After we taught Evelyn and her family with a member named Ovoh who is awesome. We taught her the plan of salvation. I used the puzzle thing that Joe and Jenna gave me for Christmas it was awesome they loved it. We are going to try and give her a date this week.
Today I am super busy and this is the only email I will be sending out...I will try and email later tomorrow. Love you guys thanks for the emails!
