Hey Everyone,


To start of i have to say CONGRATS to Tanner for his mission call. That is so exciting, it is crazy how close he will be. I also just hear that there is one area that if i was to serve there once a month you go over to Germany and stay with the Elders there to go to a small branch on that sunday, that would be crazy if we some how both ended up in those two areas. Also I can't believe that Aubry is getting married this week. give her a big hug from me and send my love to her. Also Nicole good luck on your tests this week, you will be in my prayers. It was cool to hear about your Stake Confernce, it always amazes me how inspired the leaders really are. Also that was cool to hear at the 100 years of seminary they had some french speakers on the video, i wonder if i know any of them, haha. Well things here are going great! Our week started off with us having to drop our first amis because he told us he would not pray or read and that was really hard, because he was so close but would not just do the simple acts. We left him with the Book of Mormon and i hope one day he reads it and finds the missionaries again. Then we had president interviews. They were really good and the training was so great. It was for starting the new year and we talked alot about goals. Last training we talked about breaking down the walls that our holding us back and this time it was about now that we have broken everything down we need to build it up with righteous goals and desires. My interview with presdient was really good. President Poznanski is so amazing and truly inspired. So as the week went on we had a huge line of RDVs that just did not happen because of a bunch of different reasons and we had to go back to square one and keep looking. But as the weekend rolled around we saw the blessings of all our hard work. First we had a RDV with a lady named Marie-Blanche and she is so great. She has 4 kids and said that she is done with the catholic church and is just looking for truth and something more that she feels is missing. We had a strong first lesson with her and we will see her again tonight. The other miracle is a young guy named David he was interested in the fact that we have a living prophet today. Also we just got a hold of some more people whos we are really looking forward to. It is just the start, but it is so exciting to see the effect and power of the Gospel in peoples life. Well Church was so amazing yesterday. At first I was really tired and felt a little stressed out over eveything and i had a lesson that day. But then i started to think about why i was at church and i thought about a question i had and how if i really listen and pray my question will get answers at church. Well to sum it up i recieved my answer and the comfort that God is there and we need to sometimes take a step back and really look at life how he would want us too. Not get stuck in the actions of each day but make sure that you are really working with your best. That is actually mine and my companions goal this week to work to our best ability and then continuously make such it really is our best. Also we have a goal starting tomarrow to go a whole week with only speaking french, not just when we are out of the apartment, but all the time, it will be fun hahah. Well all is going good over here. I hope that you are all enjoying life and have a great week. JE T'AIME!!
