What in the world is going on over there in K-Town?! I am not sure
who is looking more gangster, Bubba with that Kings hat on or Caden with
his hair haha. I am sure that Brock is
keeping them in line though so there is no
need to worry :) Okay about Sister Hulme, yeah I see her all of the
time, the ward that she is serving meets in the same building as my
ward, so I see her every Sunday for sure and usually multiple times
throughout the week.
As for conference. . . Was it not the best ever? I felt like I
could not write down notes fast enough. I was laughing with my companion
because I remembered a few times when you (mom) gave us notebooks and
told us to take notes and we complained and complained
and said no, and now when conference comes on I feel like my hand is on
fire I am writing down so much! I did love the talk about Gratitude as
well. One of my favorite ones was the one by President Monson, I also
liked the one by Elder Holland, because they
both talked about Charity and how important Love is in the gospel. That
is what my mission president focuses on as well so those have become
some of my favorite topics to listen to. One thing that Elder Holland
said that Christlike love is our greatest need
on this planet. All of the talks were great though, I really liked the
one on obedience as well given by Elder Hales.
Sadly though, we were not able to watch all of the sessions. We
watched them all except Sunday afternoon, with the time change the
conference started at 8 for us over here so none of the missionaries had
time to watch the conference and get back home.
We are going to try and finish it today or next P-Day depending on if we
can find any time.
This week was a fun one though. We had our district meeting in
Bordeaux, and then we headed up to Limoges to hear Elder Crawley's
district meeting! It was such a blast and he did such a great job. After
that we got to do an exchange with Elder Crawley
and his companion and I let my companion go with Elder Crawley because
he was the one that trained him in the mission so he was really excited
to be able to do an exchange with him to see how much he had grown.
Our investigator Carine is still doing really good. We are seeing
her about 3 to 4 times a week now and she is still set on the 26 of
April to be baptized. Fingers crossed! This week there are a bunch of
baptisms in Bordeaux so we are hoping that we will
be able to get here to one and that will really get her excited to be
baptized herself. Speaking of that, this week I am doing a baptismal
interview for someone! First one ever! I am super excited.
We didn't have too much crazy stuff going on this week apart from
taking a lot of trains and doing a service project for a member and his
non member friend. We helped her move and had a blast. After we finished
we didn't have time to stop and eat and we
hadn't eaten all day so the member dropped us off so that we would be in
on time, ran back to McDonald's to buy us some food, and then dropped us
off a huge sac of french fries and hamburgers! It was pretty sweet! We
don't eat very often with the members over
here in Bordeaux, so it was pretty awesome.
The castle last week was sweet too! We got to go out with like 12
missionaries and took a guided tour! This week we are trying to go down
by the river and play some basketball like the locals, I have been told
Americans are really good at basketball, so.
. . wish me luck because I am terrible haha.
We need to be playin' some baseball or somethin'. . .
Well family I love you so dearly! Have a wonderful week!
Groses bises!
