Hey Family!!!
So this has been a LONG 9 day week since i heard from you haha.... well actually i was just fine, pretty normal stuff going on.
umm so one monday we went up and played soccer in Geneva and it was way fun i guess.... i decided that i would just play with a good attitude and stuff and i slayed everyone.... not really but the WORLD WILL REMEMBER MY NAME!!! hahah... dunno where that came from! it was fun...
so then on Tuesday we just had basic like missionary stuff going on and we got to see one of our investigators. her name is Michele and she speaks english and is way funny... we've seen her a couple of times since then and watched the restoration with her and normally she likes to talk a lot(ton) but during the film she didnt say a word... she was really touched and she said that she would read every day from the Book of mormon! Which we have been trying to get her to do all along haha! she is also quiting smoking right now because she got brochitus and could easily have died.
Then we have been working with members and visiting them and its been fun i really like them! they are way too nice to us sometimes! oh and i'm still district leader so yesterday we've had 2 meetings and they went well. this last one we were talking about how we could speak better french and we invited some of the members to help us and it was really good! its always nice to have people that are from the country because they have different mindsets... and they speak the language haha!
We visited this lessactive member that is like the favorite person of all the missionaries who serve here and he used to be kind of a big drinker so it was kind of funny when we went there... but now he is stopping... and he has so much more energy its ridiculous. it was hard to get a few words in before but now its impossible haha (10 points to the Word of Wisdom testimony haha!)
On sunday we did some porting and a man let us in and we were talking about the restoration and like then he asked us how long we were here and like about our families and stuff and he said to tell our parents that On November 1, 2009 at 5:45 that Didier (52 rue de l'agouleme) said that. vos parents pourrait etre fier de vous (our parents could be proud of us) haha! He was a way nice guy and we're going to stop by and see him again pretty soon. he told us to tell our parents that! i'm not trying to be prideful or anything....
Umm... other than that this last little while i've been reading Jesus the Christ a ton and the Book of mormon too and i was just overcome with...sadness. The complete unrighteousness and illegality of the Trial and Crucifixion is completely ridiculous! the Jews acted against practically every law that they were so scrutinously protecting, and charged him of something that he DIDNT EVEN SAY or do!!! I love how talmage says it... they accused the one person on this earth that could not blaspheme of blasphemy.... or something like that... It really maybe so much more appreciative of the sacrifice that christ made for us. (10 points to atonement testimony!)
Anyways it was a great week... And i hope that you all have a great week, and I love you!
