To Paris With Love

Week 100

Lasts

Hey everybody! Days are going by fast, a little too fast to be honest

(It's scary!)

Monday first thing in the morning we took a train to Paris to have our

p-day there because Tuesday morning my companion needed to go to the

hospital to get an Xray. We met up with Elder Johnson and Martin to

pass a P-day together. We went to the Sacre Coeur mostly for E. McBride

because the rest of us have already seen it multiple times. It's always

fun going there because there is always these illegal immigrants who

sell "gucci" bags and Eiffel Towers who just get chased by the cops

all day it's so entertaining. After McBride went on an exchange with

Martin to go eat at a members house since he can't walk a lot because

of his leg and I went with Johnson and we contacted in Paris it was

super fun.

Tuesday we headed straight to the doctor. E McBride got an Xray, but the

doctor couldn't see any problems with his leg right away so we stayed

there for like 3 hours waiting for the doctors to come up with

something…they decided to schedule an appointment for an MRI.

After that was over we took a

train back to Tours and visited a recent convert that night. Talked to

him about repentance.

Wednesday we had district meeting in Tours. Our DLs formation was

pretty much just a scripture search in the New Testament, which just

so happens to be my jam, I won every time;) After that we were in the

apt and called a million people in the Area Book.

Thursday I went on my LAST EXCHANGE with Elder Omohundro. It was a

super fun exchange. We taught this guy for the first time who is

recently divorced. He has lots of potential. After we had an RDV with

this guy who didn't show up so that was kind of a bummer. Then we

visited this less active for the first time who is really nice. The

only weird thing was at the end of the RDV he started asking super

weird questions about like "evil spirits" and other stuff. Pretty much

claimed he can see dead people so we'll have to see how that goes. We

got a steak dinner which was awesome! Then we visited this guy we

called in the Area Book who wasn't super interested, he just liked

Americans. It was a super fun last exchange though!

Friday we ended our exchange and I picked up McBride in Blois. We came

back to Tours and went contacting until his leg started hurting. Then

went back to the apt did some weekly planning. #SuperFun. But it was

weird doing weekly planning for the last week of my mission.

Saturday we had a bunch of RDVs lined up, but only 1 went through. But

it was still a good lesson. It was with a guy from the islands. His

mother is in the hospital right now so we really needed us to stop by.

We taught him the Plan of Salvation. Then we watched the first session

of General Conference it was super good!

Sunday was just a whole lot of conference. It was lots of fun, and really

like all the talks by the new apostles. Thanks for your emails guys!

Love you see y'all soon!
