It was a long stinking week. From packing & bizing in Belgium to meeting new ward members & amis here in Torcy! France smells good. My new companion is Sœur Hicken, and she LOVES to cook. How about that. And she is my first comp from the 801. Our district is super cool and they live across the street from us so we play soccer together in the morning and they just make me laugh so life is good. 🤙
For conference on Sunday we had a portes ouvertes (an open house), we had a bunch of signs + posters and a table set up with brochures + cookies (basically just one upping TJ's) It wasn't too successful but it was a great idea from the ward and now people know that there is a church here!
Last conference I was in the MTC (what in the world?) and I remember thinking about our two investigators and being like wow this talk is so relevant to them, haha it was so much cooler this time thinking about my amis and the people I have met so far on my mission and how well conference addressed their needs. One of the Elders amis, Maria, came to watch conference and I was sitting by her and every time she said amen at the end of a discourse it was like an amen hallelujah from the soul kind of thing and I loved it haha. At the end I asked her what she thought and she said that those testimonies touched her so much and she didn't understand how they were all so relevant for today.
She thought it was amazing how much people can learn from it.
It was also really cool listening to it in French. We watched one session, maybe Sunday morning, I'm not sure.., in English and I realized my notes from the French sessions were a lot more of what I needed to hear or thoughts I had as they spoke. While in English, I was like waiting for a power packed phrase like 4th floor last door or something haha idk. But there you go, they might have been saying completely different things than I think but conference was great! Comme toujours.
Alrighty that's all I got. I haven't been to Disneyland yet but I will bientôt. And I have Zone Conference tomorrow and we are getting trained on using Facebook, yikes! Friend me hehe. It's also all three Paris zones so I get so see a couple of homies.🎉
Have a good one.♡
