il neige quoi

Salut

This week it snowed - everyone cancelled rendezvous because snow is scary and busses don't run even though the road is clear.  And I finally got sick, I was so strong for so long :') But not like vomit sick so I didn't stay in, I just went out and got sicker parce qu'il neige quoi.

BUT we didn't have a bad week we just had another weird one haha.

Tuesday we saw Manoucheca + Fam. Roosevens is the golden investigator man, he has read like half of that children's Book of Mormon we gave to him the other week. We read with them the story of Samuel the Lamanite and asked what they got from it and he answered "God will tell you what you need to do so you don't have to worry."  We talked about baptism with them again and Manoucheca has changed her answer from in a couple years to being ready in 3-6 months so her heart is definitely softening.

On Thursday Rodolphe finally admitted he isn't atheist and can't wait to talk about the Plan of Salvation next time and other "irrational" things we can think of - end quote. Dad he thinks you're great. I don't know what I said about you in our rendezvous but every time he brings up how well rounded my dad is. He also is starting to realize Mormons aren't a cult of weirdos who do nothing but build fences around our communities. Also he is a communist - I don't know how you can be communist in France but he will like heaven quoi.

Speaking of Communists -  I will never see Sourivong again 😢 he is moving back to Laos this week surprise.. 2 months early. There isn't a church there. I'm going to miss my Buddhist Mormon guy. I drew him a nice picture of him by his Bungalow sipping coconut water and working on his form.

On Friday we went out to see somebody in the depths of Pontault-Combault. We went there from Torcy by bus and the roads weren't bad even though it was snowing pretty hard! We then took another bus to get out where we needed to be, after about 2 minutes we realized we needed to be going the opposite direction so we hopped off the next stop. the stop was literally in the middle of no where, I have no idea how we got so far away from Pontault in 2 minutes but we did and we were stuck because apparently that was the last bus that decided to function that day 😂 WE WERE THERE FOR TWO AND A HALF HOURS walking around in the snow trying to walk back oh man we looked pretty pathetic mais ça va quoi la vie missionaire quoi

Happy came to church again and fell asleep in sacrament meeting 😂 We were translating for her but in reality we were putting her to sleep she eventually ended up on my shoulder. But she got to meet Évêque Monga afterwards and talk to him about baptism. In his slightly broken English he told her that we love to baptize people twice, because while other Baptisms are good our Baptism is better because we gots the power. She was like ohhhh I finally understand!! In our lesson afterwards the Holy Ghost clicked for her, and we discussed the Word of Wisdom and she can't wait to wear white and she's just funny and I like her. We will be moving back her date to March because there is a ward temple trip the 24th and teaching her has been hard the last 2 weeks but she wants to do it before I leave, she said she would pray and pick a date and fill out a Baptismal calendar with us this week. On verra 🤞

This week is gonna be crazy. We are getting our new and improved portables on Thursday at zone conference and I'll see mama Raj again and David (elders ami) is getting baptized on Saturday and we might have gotten permission to go to Gwènaëlle's on Sunday afternoon - She lives in Province which is forever away not even close to our sector so that will be an adventure haha the DL said oui alors voilà. Bonne semaine ♡
