Week #97
4 ami's in church

Monday we had a normal p-day. After we did our emails and stuff we had a FHE at the church and the sisters gave the spiritual thought. 

Tuesday in the morning we headed over to Le Mans to have our district meeting. After that they organized a service project for a member in Le Mans who lived in the middle of nowhere. Then they asked the sisters to pretty much remodel their dumpy house and asked us to pick up all their garbage outside then build a fence with like no tools haha it was interesting but it didn't look half bad! Then after that we drove with the Alencon Elders in their car back to Alencon because we were doing an exchange over there. I was with the district leader and again we had to do service so I pretty much wore normal clothes the entire day. They have this ami who is opening up a soap shop and he's asking them for help to set it up and stuff and make soap…it's interesting. 

Wednesday morning we left Alencon super early in the morning in order to make our train. Then when we got to Tours we met the APs at the train station because we were doing an exchange with them that day but this time in Tours. I was with Elder Lattin it was my second time doing an exchange with him. The 1st time I was in my 6th transfer and he was in his 4th so a lot had change since then! We contacted for a while and did some missionary work, after that we had branch council. We have some people that want to be baptized and the branch acts like that's a bad thing. They're an interesting group of people. 

Thursday we left again super early in the morning in order to go to the other district meeting in Orleans. After the meeting we took a train to Paris to do Elder McBrides 2nd year legality. But the legality place is only open in the morning which we already knew, so that meant we had to sleep over at one of the Paris Elders apt. so we had some time to kill in Paris and that was fun. Then we went to the Torcy Elders apt where Elder Johnson is serving and stayed the night over there and it was super fun. 

Friday we woke up early so that we could do Elder McBrides legality. We got to the place and we were the only white people there haha. It took about 2 hours of line waiting and then we headed out to La Defense and got Chipotle it was so good. Then we took a train back home. When we got home we didn't have to much time so we just went porting.

Saturday in the morning we had to give another training to our DLs to reteach them how to correctly be a DL and help them magnify their calling. It went pretty good. Then we had to plan for the week and we had to talk about the trainings that we'll be giving because we have zone conference, stake conference, and President asked Elder McBride and me to make a training teaching missionaries how to dress so we have a lot of stuff to prepare for! Then we visited a less active/ part member family who are from Brazil I love them a lot it's just kinda hard working with them. 

Saturday we went to church. We had 4 investigators there which was huge for Tours. Then we ate a meal as a branch, we made brownies. We have a new family here who is from Sweden they are super nice. Then we went out and worked. During our lunch and dinn

er break we took pictures for the training that we are going to
give on clothing then did zone stats.
 
Thanks for your emails guys love you see you all in a month!
