Two Weeks Left

THIS BLOG WAS POSTED LATE - IT WAS SENT ON 8/1/17 BUT POSTED ON 8/6/17

Bonjour! Wow. Two weeks left. This past week flew by. For the first time since arriving in Colmar we actually had quite a few investigator appointments set up. Unfortunately a lot of them fell through but we were still able to meet some cool people.

One of the newer investigator's name is Marie. We met her outside of the train station a few week ago and were finally able to meet with her last week. She has incredible faith for being a 20 year old in France. She seemed pretty stuck in her evangelical ways, but was open to the Book of Mormon so we will see how that goes.

Memid is doing solid like always.

We are really going to try to make the push to get him to church this week. Thierry can't meet with us till September so I won't be able to meet with him again unfortunately, but I still got faith that he will get baptized sometime in the near future. That guy is incredible, just always busy with work.

My Family from Switzerland and Idaho

On Sunday a lot of my family came and visited from Switzerland, and even from Idaho! It was a lot of fun. They came to church, which nearly doubled the size of the branch and then we picnicked afterwards. It was a whole lot of fun. I was able to speak to them in french which was an incredible experience. Last time they heard my french it was my terrible French 4 school french, so it was fun to have the ability to say a little more than bonjour.

Monday was spent in St Die doing district meeting and hiking this mountain that looks over the St Die valley. I've never been a huge fan of hiking but the view was pretty amazing.

Have a good week. God Bless
