<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Bonjour (for the last time)! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Honestly this past week was a blur. It was a lot of goodbyes, packing, and contacting. Probably the coolest part of the week was when the last door I ever knocked on became the only person to ever let me in during two years. It was Friday afternoon, we were busting out the last door to door stuff of my mission, and the last door we knocked on let us in. Her name is Irene. She was really interested in our message and what we do as missionaries. It's unfortunate that I will never be able to teach her again, but what a blessing it was to have the last door be the first success. Knocking through the nos to get to the yes. Haha. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">It was hard saying goodbye to he members in Colmar. They held a giant Italian meal for me on the last day in Colmar. That branch was probably the closest I have been to any other unit before. It was a family. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Well today was spent in Strasbourg with the district doing a Segway tour of the city followed by a planetarium and observatory visit, and finished off with a fancy french meal. The best pday of my mission. Haha. It was super fun. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Well I guess this it. Two years are gone and I've grown a whole ton. I will be forever grateful for the experiences I had and the people I met. God loves us all. He has a plan for us. Trust Him, be patient and things will be alright. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Bonjour! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I'm going to keep this one short because, well I'm home in 10 days, but it was a great week. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">On Wednesday one of members needed help at his work so we got to help him out. He works in construction putting up insulation dry wall. He was running behind on some of his homes so he put us to work. We worked on an attic room on the sides where the ceiling hits the floor at a 30 degree angle. We had to squeeze dry wall in those spots, hold it in place, and drill it in. It was tough, but I learned a lot more about dry wall. To thank us the member invited us over to eat twice during the week. We spent some great evenings at their place. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Friday we had exchanges with the St Die Elders. They came into Colmar with their car so we put it to use. We went and knocked on doors in a neighborhood that's too far for us normally called Kaysersberg. It actually just got voted prettiest city in France, so we got to kill two birds with one stone. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">On pday we went to a falconry, which was so cool. We got to see falcons, eagles, vultures, hawks, and owls flying around us. It was great. Afterwards we went to a castle called Haut-Koenigsbourg. It's the most known castle in Alsace because it is perched on top of the mountains looking over the region. The Beauty and the beast castle was also loosely based off it as well. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The work in Colmar is going well. It was a lot of finding this week with not much success. The first weeks in August are always the worst in France so we are just trying to endure it well. We got to see Daniel this week again. It's been like 4 weeks so we were worried he would be disinterested but he was engaged well in the lesson. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">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. </span></div>

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. </span></div>

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. </span></div>

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Tuesday we went to St Die for exchanges with the District Leader. St Die is a beautiful a town but it is just tiny and terrible for missionary work. I believe that you can find people anywhere, it's just harder in certain places and St Die is one of those places. Haha. We spent a lot of the day finding but we went up to this city called Gerardmer in the evening and wow that is an incredible city. It's got this giant lake in the town that has mountains (large hills) falling into it. I'll attach some pictures. </div>

Wednesday was my birthday. I'm no longer a teenager. Thursday we had Zone Conference with the new mission president. He came down hard with a lot of new rules and stuff to straighten us out. He is a super personable man though so it was taken well by he majority of the missionaries. I had my last interview as well. I told him things he needs to do and then he told me what I need to do when I go home. It was an interesting moment because afterwards I just kind of felt like it was over. Just one of those moments when it hits you that you are going home soon. Don't get me wrong, I'm still chugging along but it's becoming more and more real everyday. </div>

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Saturday was spent in a city called Munster doing door to door stuff. It's a smaller city in our sector but here are still quite a few people that live there so we decided to check it out for a day. No success but we had a ton of fun. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Sunday was a good Sunday. One of the children in the branch got baptized so a lot of the day was spent at that event, and the rest was spent planning. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
We got fed 3 times this past week by members! Our connections with them are just growing deeper and deeper. I've never felt this involved with a unity since Brussels. It's just great when it is such a team effort and everyone is involved even if you aren't seeing success. </div>

<div class="p1">
We hit the ground running this week with a mini Zone Conference in Nancy on Tuesday to meet the new mission president, President Sorensen. The conference went well. It's a definite change of pace from President Babin but he will do well here. It's funny to see how much new missionary fire he has. He expressed to us his high expectations centered on member missionary relations and the use of Preach Gospel. It was a lot of idealistic thinking and a little less on the pragmatic side of things, but that's to be expected of any new missionary. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Wednesday and Thursday was spent on nothing but finding efforts. It's definitely the grind but I love it. Elder Pixton and I were able to celebrate the fourth together with hot dogs, Doritos, and Coke. It was a great evening. Friday we got to head up to Strasbourg for District Meeting, and a doctors appointment for my companion. Elder Pixton has had this ingrown toenail for 9 months now and I finally got him to set up an appointment with a doctor. Turns out the doctor is actually the foot doctor for the Strasbourg soccer team. Apparently they get their feet checked every two weeks by him. Anyways, he was able to successfully complete his procedure and Pixton is now pain free. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
We spent the night in Strasbourg because we had to travel the next day to Nancy for a Zone finding day. The finding day was pretty successful. I got to see my MTC teacher! It was fun reliving memories from almost 2 years ago and what made it even better was the fact my MTC companion, Elder Nagloo, was there as well. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Sunday was a normal Sunday but Pday was incredible. We went to this place called Monkey Mountain. On this mountain there are 150 free roaming Barbary Macaques that you feed with popcorn that they give you at the entrance. It was phenomenal. I've never been so close to monkeys. </div>
<div class="p1">
Have a great week! God Bless</div>

Bonjour! </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Another week has come and gone. Tuesday through Thursday was nothing but contacting and door to door stuff. We actually had one appointment with Memid. I don't know if I've already explained who he is but if not he is an immigrant of 50 years of what use to be Yugoslavia. We have seen him already 5 times since we arrived in Colmar. He believes strongly in the apostasy and during this last lesson he accepted the Book of Mormon to be true as well as Joseph Smith being a prophet. That was pretty cool. I'm a little worried to see how he will fit into the branch. He has some rough edges and I hope no one judges him too harshly off the bat. He is a really nice dude. The finding efforts were ok. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The closer we get to summer vacation for the frenchies the rougher it is. Colmar citizens leave Colmar on vacation and tourist come to replace them. It's tough. This upcoming week is the last week of school and then it will be just crazy. We are trying to take advantage of the last normal week. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
To preface this next story we have had a leak coming from the tank of our toilet for the past two weeks. It started off relatively slow but recently it had been pumping out a liter every hour. We have been doing our best to catch it all with bowls and towels but because we are gone so frequently it's been getting pretty bad. Haha. We called the senior couples to help us fix it and they were in the process of getting us a plumber. Thursday night though we get a knock on the door at 10:40 from a disheveled neighbor who has water dripping into his garage on the first floor. We live on the fourth. We quickly put two and two together and he told us to shut our water off immediately until we can get a plumber. That evening, in preparation for the worst we filled up anything that could hold water and through it in the fridge. Haha. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Friday was a hectic day in the apartment. We had to get a hold of plumbers, neighbors, and office couples to fix the mess all while finding creative ways to relieve ourselves. It was fun. By the end of the day we were able to get it fixed and we headed off to Strasbourg for District Meeting and a crepe party. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Saturday and Sunday were just your average missionary days. We were able to have an appointment with a Sudanese investigator, Daniel, on Sunday that went relatively well. We are worried the communication barrier is causing a bigger problem than we think, seeing as how his main language is Arabic. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
My companion worked at Jamba Juice for a year and a half before the mission so he has been whipping up some milkshakes and smoothies all week. It's been incredible. </div>
<div class="p1">
Have a great week. God Bless</div>

This past week was incredibly hot. The french people use this word called the "canicule" to describe when an immense heat wave hits and that happened this past week. This is just bad news for a missionary because when it is hot everyone stays inside. Contacting was really hard this week. We often times returned home sweaty and empty handed. Looking on the bright side though this heat should be a good prep for returning to a Texas summer. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Other highlights of the week were when we met some tourists from Plano! That was really strange. If you ever went to the Chase bank next to Plano West you probably met the mother. She had worked there for over 25 years. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
For my Swiss family, I had Rivella this week for the first time in a while! There has been a huge advertising campaign for it in Alsace so I had to go get some! It was as good as I remember it and it brought me back to the fun family reunions we had in Switzerland. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Tuesday we went into Strasbourg for a zone finding day and activity. It went really well despite the fact that the public transport shut down for the day on strike. I also got to run into Sister Walters (my cousin) again! We got to chat for a little bit more than at Zone Conference and it was great to catch up on things. Saturday we spent the day in St Die with the district doing some finding. It was a day full of door to door but we saw a ton of success in areas we usually don't. Also, St Die is in a region called the Voges which is incredibly beautiful. It just a bunch of cities on the sides of mountains. It reminded me a lot of Switzerland so needless to say I had a great time! </div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Another week down and what a week it was. Tuesday we had Zone Conference in Nancy. That was incredibly fun. It was our last zone conference with President Babin so everyone in the zone decided to chip in some money to buy him a 6 kilo (12 pounds) kouglehopf cake (I don't think I spelled that right). The kouglehopf is a regional specialty and is basically like a really dry bundt cake covered in powdered sugar. Anyways this thing was huge, and he was very appreciative. I also got to see Chelsea (my cousin) at the conference. She is doing well and her french really impressed me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Wednesday the St Die Elders came in to Colmar for an exchange. I have never laughed harder on an exchange. It was so much fun. They brought their car in, so we took advantage of it and did some tracting and less active hunting in areas that were unreachable before. We somehow stumbled into Eguisheim, a small village that was voted prettiest village in France by the french people a few years back. It was incredible. Right up next to the mountains, surrounded by vineyards, with castles scattering the skyline. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Friday was one of the highlights of the week. We had a first appointment with some guy named Nathan we met earlier in the month. He is a 30 year old french man who works in the town hall who attended the baptism of his aunt and was interested in learning more. So he fixed the appointment for this Japanese restaurant. We were a little worried about teaching in a restaurant just because it's not the easiest place to whip out your scriptures, or pamphlets but it actually turned out to be stellar. He really enjoyed the visit and wants to have his own personal relationship with God. It's something he has been searching for all his life. Later in the day we met with Thierry, the golden boy. He told us that he had finished the Book of Mormon and has been doing a ton of research about us online. He keeps in contact with temple square missionaries and they also help answer his questions. We taught the restoration, which he already knew, and answered his questions. He wants to get baptized but wants to take it slow. He did tell us that he knew coffee was going to be a problem. He loves that stuff. Fast forward to last night though when he texted us saying that God has been changing his life and he has severely reduced his coffee intake. Apparently he is disgusted by the flavor now. God is good. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">We started off last week by going to the Statue of Liberty...but in Colmar. Yeah, apparently the guy who made the original is from Colmar so they have a smaller one in the middle of a roundabout. It's pretty cool. Ill attach some photos. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Wednesday we went out to Strasbourg for District Meeting and lunch. It was a good time. We spent some time later in the day baking cookies for members. I impressed myself with how they tasted. The branch invites everyone to do a small task every week to prepare for the sacrament meeting subjects. This week's task was service, hence why we made the cookies, but it turned out to be a good occasion to meet with some less actives. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Thursday through Saturday was pretty much straight finding. Walking the streets and knocking doors is the life. Which brings me to one of the craziest miracles of my mission. So flash back to one of our first days in Colmar, we were just out contacting when all of a sudden a man, named Thierry, stopped us asking for a Book of Mormon. Forcibly we gave him one but he was in a hurry so when he rambled his number off to us we didn't get it down properly. That evening we tried all sorts of combinations of the same number in attempt to get a hold of him but none of them worked. This past week we fasted and prayed to have new investigators to get the work moving here. Saturday morning we get a text from the church headquarters giving us a referral of a man named Thierry. He wants a missionary visit and Book of Mormon in Portuguese for his friend. The number he gave was pretty close to the numbers we tried to call two weeks ago so we knew that this was the guy. We were excited to say the least. We met up with him in the afternoon giving him the Book of Mormon and a brief explanation of it and the restoration. That evening we texted him to confirm numbers and he proceeded to tell us that he has already read half the book, he can't stop, and the something is telling him it is the truth. Since then we have had a few more conversations over text and he is extremely excited to learn about us. Now I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch but this is looking pretty good. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">God is good, that's all I can say. Well I hope everyone else had a good week. I know I shouldn't be counting down but 9 weeks left... crazy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Can't wait to see y'all again. God Bless!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Last pday we had the opportunity to go to Strasbourg to be with the District. It was incredibly fun. We went to this buffet at night called Flam's which serves all you can eat flammenkuchen, an Alsatian specialty. Basically it's like pizza with a really thin crunchy crust and instead of red sauce they use white sauce. The toppings range from a variety of things but are usually cheese, ham, and/or vegetables. It was delicious and incredibly filling. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Tuesday through Friday was a lot of proselyting. It was good, we learned during the week that the amount of tourists in the city goes down enough to where we can do effective contacting. We actually had 9 appointments set up but only 2 of them went through. Haha. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Those two appointments were pretty cool though. One was with a Malagasy man named Olivier and the other was with someone named Ali. They both now have Book of Mormons and will hopefully read them. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The direction asking from tourists still hasn't stopped. Speaking of which we had some old German women come up to us asking us where the post office was. I pulled out a map and realized it was really far away but because that was too hard for me to explain in German I could only tell them to take their next right. Haha. I hope they found it eventually. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Saturday we had the district come in to Colmar to do some finding for us. It rained all day but we still had some pretty good success. I got to go contacting with my MTC companion Elder Nagloo for the first time. That was really fun. Additionally, for one of our breaks throughout the day we took a gondola ride down the "petit Venice". I will attach some pictures but I'm sure 8 missionaries on a gondola would have been a sight to see for some tourists. Haha. It was overall a terrific week. </span></div>

Unfortunately when you are whitewashing your companion also has his bags, leaving you on your own with all your bags to haul around the crowded, sweaty metros and trains of Paris. It's terrible. Anyways... we made it to Colmar after what seemed like a never ending train ride and it's been terrific ever since. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">This city is incredible. Easily one of the most beautiful cities I have ever been to in my life. I'll attach some pictures but I am literally blown away everyday. The unfortunate thing about this is that the city is full tourists. This makes it literally impossible to do contacting in the downtown areas because everyone is either a Chinese tourist or from Germany. It doesn't help that we are wearing our white tshirts and ties because everyone thinks we are tour guides. It's ridiculous. We've had countless people come up to us and just start asking us for directions in German. It's helped me to get to know the city well but is really annoying when contacting. Anyways, we have started to do a lot more door to door stuff because it seems to be the only effective way to find for now. It's really too bad because I love contacting, so to end a mission doing door to door stuff wasn't exactly what I had in mind but I'll go hard nonetheless. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The members here are incredible. We had 57 people at church today and apparently it's because everyone heard missionaries were back in Colmar. The members are so excited. We are hailed as gods. They picked us up from the train station, gave us groceries, invited us to a BBQ last Saturday, made a branch mission plan, started having branch council again, and invited us over for lots of dinner appointments in the coming weeks. It's crazy to see how not having missionaries for such a long time can really effect the way you see things. The member base is really made up of one family that accounts for 30 members in the branch. They are all extremely nice. </span></div>

Bonjour! Sorry this email is coming out on Tuesday. We had a conference with THE Elder Neil L Andersen yesterday, so we took pday today. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Last Tuesday we did more service for that lady. This time we had the task of catching guinea pigs, and cleaning rain gutters. The guinea pigs were incredibly speedy. We were chasing them through this huge backyard full of stinging nettle. It was incredibly difficult and painful but we finally got them after about an hour. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday we had finding days in Lille, Arras, and St Omer. They were all a lot more successful than previously anticipated so that was super cool. Saturday evening we were able to watch the transmission of the Cultural Celebration for the temple. It was pretty cool. The best part was at the beginning when they had a companionship of missionaries on bikes taking on fake Tour de France competitors. It was pretty funny. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Sunday we watched all three sessions of the consecration of the temple. It was super cool. The third session was easily the best. Lots of great stuff in the consecration prayer. I encourage y'all to read it when it gets published. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Monday we went to Paris to have a conference with Elder Neil L Andersen and <span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">all the missionaries</span>. We got to shake his hand and listen to him for two hours. It was pretty cool. He talked a lot about what we need to focus on as missionaries now with a temple in France. Ill be trying to implement those things for my last two transfers. </div>

Oh and other big news is I am getting transferred to a city called Colmar in the east of France. The cool thing is I get to reopen the city. Almost a year ago the missionaries were pulled out because the branch really struggled. So apparently they are ready to receive missionaries again and Elder Pixton and I have the privilege to be the first. It's going to be tough but it will be the best way to finish off my mission. I can not wait to go hard everyday trying to get the work going again in Colmar. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<blockquote type="cite">
This brings my tally up to 8 cities, 8 companions, 5 senior couples, 5<br />whitewash ins, and 4 whitewash outs. I have also hit 6 of the 7 zones,<br />the 3 biggest cities in the mission, and 2 of the smallest. It's safe<br />to say I have a had a pretty nuts mission.</blockquote>

Bonjour! </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Tuesday we went out to the city Argentiers to help a member with her garden. It is the same one that we stacked wood for last week. This week she had us cleaning out a garage area and then setting up a play set. It went pretty well. That evening we had a dinner appointment with some Congolese members. It is sad that a majority of you reading this will not have the opportunity to ever attend one of these because they are something else. They make a ton of food and tell you to eat it all. They just keep serving you and there is no stopping them. Incredible. Additionally there are no forks or knives. According to frere Kabongo you should only ever be using your "fourchette naturelle" (natural fork) or in other words, your hands. We had foo foo (I have no idea how to spell that), vegetables, potatoes, chicken, and bean stew. The only way to survive an african dinner appointment is to not think, frere Kabongo says "il faut pas le calculs, il faut manger" (it isn't necessary to calculate, its necessary to eat). </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Wednesday I was still trying get over the food coma I was in because we had exchanges with the Calais elders followed by Valenciennes on Thursday. Both exchanges went pretty well.</div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Friday we were in Dunkirk for a finding day. I was able to find a french family (which out here is a miracle) that was interested while going door to door with Elder Wagner. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Saturday we were in Valenciennes for another finding day. The best part of the day was when they took us to an American candy store for one of the breaks throughout the day. It was incredibly good. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Sunday we had church and then I skyped home. For those of you not in contact with my family, they are doing great and you have to check out James's hair. It is some of the best flow I have ever seen. Haha. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
The work is still focused on finding. I will let you know when we have some solid people. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Have a great week. God bless</div>

Bonjour. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
I'm going to apologize in advance for this email. I jammed my fingers playing basketball earlier today so I am currently typing a lot slower than usual in an attempt minimize pain. But don't worry. I still won the game. Haha. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
We had a pretty busy week in Lille. We had 4 days in our sector so that really helped boost our own work. We had exchanges early on in the week with the Amiens Elders. On Wednesday we helped a member with service in her backyard. Ill attach a picture of the final results but basically they had this area that was just a huge pile of wood. We had to pull all the wood out, cut it into less than 2 feet chunks, and then pile it neatly in the allotted area. I was on cutting duty for most of it, but unfortunately the only tool available was a bow saw. It would have been a lot easier with an ax. It took us quite a while to finish the task but it was well worth it. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Thursday (I was incredibly sore from that bow saw) was a good normal missionary day with finding and lessons. We finished it off with a dinner at the Gouttin family's home. It was absolutely delicious. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Friday and Saturday we were in Amiens and V dasq for finding Days. Amiens had some really good success. They were able to find 14 new investigators and over 30 numbers. Sunday was planning on planning. We did get to meet with a man named Alfa though. He doesn't really seem interested. We will see though. In other news, our baptismal date Maxime doesn't want to see us anymore and our other investigators just don't pick up their phones. Starting from ground zero again:). The Lille sisters were suppose to have a baptism on Saturday but he did not show up. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
I'm working hard and having fun though and that's all that matters. Oh I forgot to mention a man named Josue we met on Wednesday. He is super cool and I have lots of hope for him. We are going to see him tomorrow again to explain more about the Book of Mormon. Have a great week! God Bless!</div>

Bonjour! This past week was definitely hectic. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
On Tuesday we went to all three district meetings in the zone. This means we were in Dunkirk during the morning, Amiens in the afternoon, followed by the Lille district meeting. It was a lot of trains but it was good to see everyone in the zone.</div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Wednesday and Thursday we were in Paris for exchanges with the assistants. We had a good time. Friday we were in St Quentin for a finding day and than Saturday we were in Calais for another finding day. They both went well. I kept track of stats pretty intensely this past time and I learned that in those two cites I contacted around 120 people and only got 8 conversations with only 2 appointments set up and another guy gave us his number. Calais and st Quentin are notoriously known for the hardness of people's hearts. Haha. Fortunately I met a lady in Calais who was from Zambia. She was super cool and actually was close to getting baptized in our church in Zambia before she came to France. So hopefully something happens there. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Sunday we had two dinners thanks to members! We went to our ward mission leaders house for spaghetti and then the Tessa's for lasagna. It was really good. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
We have been working recently with a guy named Evrard. He is a recent convert in Lille who is already less active, but he has been making some incredible progress. He went to the temple open house on Saturday with the ward and just stopped smoking cold turkey. We will see how long that lasts but it seems like he really wants to change. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
We have just been out of our sector so much recently it's hard to see things develop. We should be home for 4 days next week though. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Well thats all I got! Have a great week. God Bless and Go Jazz </div>

Well since my last letter was written on Wednesday I don't have too much to report on, although on Thursday we got to go visit the temple open house. All I can say is wow. They really put some time and effort into that building. It is pretty amazing. The french people have been waiting for this for over 100 years and it is definitely worth it. I'll attach some pictures. </div>

Friday we had our first normal day in a while but got stuck out in a small city for a little bit because one of our investigators didn't show up. It was good though to get some contacting in and feel like a normal missionary. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Saturday we got to play some soccer with investigators and members followed by a few lessons and more contacting. We have a lot of potential investigators who aren't really going anywhere right now so we are kind of in a finding stage right now. </div>

Sunday was weekly planning and ward roster work for the clerk. He often sends us out on wild goose chases to find inactive members. It's entertaining but not really effective all the time. </div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Bonjour! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Sorry I did not write on Monday! We had Interviews on Monday and then zone conference on Tuesday. So, we decided to take pday on Wednesday. It's been a good 10 days though. It was tough saying goodbye to some of the members in Amiens but I've become a pro at it after doing it 6 times already. Haha. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Wednesday we moved into the Lille apartment and boy was it a mess. We have already put so many hours into cleaning it up. It's just terrible. Don't get me wrong, I love a messy room, but this apartment hit a whole new level. Haha. Thursday was filled with planning for the Zone and then we went to a meeting with the ward mission leader to learn about our new sector. The work has been moving along pretty well here. They had a baptismal date with a guy named Maxime and they also have another who is close to a date, Cristo. Cristo made it to church this week and we were able to see maxime on Sunday after church. He is a pretty cool 20 year old french kid. He is actually a referral from the church website. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Friday we went into Paris for most of the day for mission Council. I got to see some familiar faces, Pande, Silva, Nagloo, Lamothe, and many more. It was really fun. I don't know if I mentioned this last week but Elder Silva, my son from Charleville, replaced Pande in Paris as zone leader. I'm a proud father. Haha. Saturday we played soccer in the morning with a bunch of members and investigators. The rest of the day was more meetings and then a ward cooking activity. </span><br />
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Oh update on a situation from a few weeks ago: so remember the time Mansfield and I played against some people in futsal and got wrecked? Well we later learned that that was a team that competes on a national level in france. Haha. No wonder we lost so hard. Haha.<br />
<div>

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Easter Sunday went well. We had church and then got invited to eat at an American members home with 10 other ward members. It was a lot of fun. I even got to drink root beer and eat ritz crackers! </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Monday we had Interviews with president Babin and then we set up and cooked for Zone Conference the next day. We made/bought french toast, biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, cereal, fruits, and juice. It was a huge success but took a lot of time in the kitchen. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Tuesday was Zone Conference and it was really focused on the consecration of ourselves in line with the fact the temple in Paris will be consecrated soon. Sacrifice is what helps us pass from something good to something better and then from something better to something "best". </div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">So I will just start with the exciting news first, Elder Mansfield and I are being transferred to LILLE! The mission realized that it didn't make sense to have zone leaders in Amiens for multiple reasons, so they decided to keep us together for a third transfer and move us to a more central location. I am super excited to be moving to Lille. It's a big city, the members are cool, and I get to be with Elder Mansfield for another transfer. It will be sad to leave Amiens though. The members and investigators have been incredibly kind to us and it feels like leaving a family. </span></div>

Tuesday and Wednesday was filled with a ton of rdvs so that we could leave Thursday, Friday, and Saturday open for different cities. We were able to see Djamal on Tuesday. He is doing incredibly well. I was able to teach the restoration again to him and he gets it. The church has Conference translated in Arab already so he was super excited to hear Thomas S Monson speak. It was a really cool appointment. Thursday we were in Arras, Friday St Omer, and Saturday Lille for finding Days. They all went really well. Saturday evening we had a farewell dinner at Thomas and Lula's place, and on Sunday we packed all day. </span></div>

Bonjour! </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
I'm going to start with one of the fun parts of the week. On Wednesday we got invited by one of the young adults to come play basketball with his non member friends. We cleared up some room in our schedule and headed down to the local street courts. It was fun!! One of them had the ugliest bank shot I have ever seen from the 3 point line but he never missed. I played really well myself. I don't know if that is just how it is when you play basketball as a missionary, or if the rims in France are bigger, but I was on fire. They couldn't handle me - Ha Ha. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
The rest of the week was great. We got to have dinner at two members homes and found ourselves in Valenciennes and Calais for finding Days. On Friday we had 11 missionaries in Amiens to contact for 4 hours. We got 13 new investigators and 28 other potentials. It was a lot fun. There is just an indescribable feeling you get contacting in the same town square with 10 other missionaries. It's really fun. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Sunday we watched 3 sessions of general conference at the church. All 4 of us missionaries brought our comforters and lots of snacks to the church for a long day full of inspiring talks. I really enjoyed Elder Choi's talk (and the sour cream and onion pringles). It was a great day. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
That's all I got for this week. Have a good week. God Bless</div>

Bonjour! </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
So Tuesday we were in Paris on exchanges with the assistants. I got to teach a lady from Haiti who spoke creole and limited french. That was an interesting experience and she is totally interested in baptism. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
On Wednesday we had the Calais elders come in to Amiens for exchanges. Since this was our only day in the sector we had to see all our investigators, recent converts, and less actives. It was a busy day. Djamal is doing excellent. He is just blowing through the Book of Mormon, Bible, and any pamphlets we give him. He now understands the importance of Jesus and we are slowly moving into the restoration with him. We discussed apostasy and he asked who the next prophet is. He is just one of those investigators who gets it. I love investigators like that. Once his English and French improves baptism will happen shortly thereafter. Other than him we are working through new investigators. We get anywhere from 4 to 6 a week, most of them don't stay around, but just like anything in life missionary work is a process. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Thursday we were in Dunkirk, Friday we were in Lille, and Saturday we were in St Quentin. We did these things called Finding Days where, put simply, we find all day with an entire district in one city. It's tiring but rewarding. After having a week of 24 new investigators in the zone we pulled in 54 new investigators this past week. Out of 7 zones in the mission, our zone accounted for approximately 30% of the new investigators found. We were really happy. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
The only other big news is when we were in Lille we found a restaurant that sells pizza in a cone. Yeah, PIZZA IN A CONE. Genius. So we for sure tried it and it was pretty good. Nothing life changing but not half bad. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Thanks for reading. Have a good week. God Bless</div>

Bonjour! </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
This past week was another one for the books as we managed to cram in 4 different exchanges. It started off on Tuesday with an exchange in Calais with the Elder there. It went very well. Elder Christensen and I were together all day. We taught one of there investigators in a small town outside of Calais. This lady lives in home that the only way I could describe it is a larger Barbie doll house. Her house is literally painted pink. Haha. The lesson went really well though. She has already read some in the Book of Mormon and she told us that she believes Joseph Smith is a prophet of God. It was pretty cool. The rest of the day was spent going door to door in a rainy, ugly day in Calais. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Wednesday was a pretty normal day in our sector. We had a bunch of administrative stuff to do so we took some time to do that, but we were also able to get 5 new investigators. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Thursday we had exchanges with elders from Villeneuve Dasq in Amiens. I got preached at by one of our Nigerian recent converts, who use to be a preacher in an evangelical church, for 1.5 hours. It was an exhilarating experiences. There were lots of hallelujahs thrown around. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Friday we had exchanges with the other Amiens companionship and then Saturday Elder Mansfield and Elder Shenkal got sick so Brotherson and I got to do another exchange together. It was a pretty full week but not like the one to come. Paris, Dunkerque, V Dasq, and St Quentin are all on the travel plans for next week. It will be exhausting. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Time flies so fast. Have a good week. God Bless</div>

Bonjour! </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
So we spent 4 days in Lille this past week and a little bit of time in Dunkirk. It was exhausting but fun. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Tuesday we had exchanges with the elders in Lille so we left Monday night and spent all day in Lille. It was a great exchange! They even set up a dinner appointment for me. It was terrific. Tuesday night we stayed in Lille again because the next day we went to Dunkirk for district meeting and then came right back to Lille for their district meeting. That evening we got back to our own beds in Amiens only to leave the next day after our district meeting at noon for Lille. So if you are still following this goose chase we are now on Thursday in Lille. We had to prepare for the zone conference the next day by buying all the supplies for lunch and preparing our training. We decide to cook burritos for everyone. It turned out super well. So Thursday evening we spent another night in Lille, and woke up the next morning to head over to zone conference. That lasted till about 6pm and then we finally made it home. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
As you can see this week we did not have much of a chance to teach our investigators but we had 4 of them at church so that was super solid. We had one investigator named jamal who read in the book of mormon from the start until halfway through mosiah, in 4 days. That guy has some real intent. We will see how it turns out. Things are looking good in Amiens and I am happy. Have a terrific week. God Bless</div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9.0pt;">On Tuesday we got to go play
futsal with one of our investigators. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "-webkit-standard","serif";"> </span><span style="color: black; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9.0pt;">It was super fun besides the fact
that when we showed up we realized these guys were serious. We were just
so out of place. This guys were 25, in shape, and playing soccer everyday. We
were 19, out of shape, and having not touched a soccer ball for a year and a
half. It was rough to say the least. It was like showing up to a formal event
wearing something that you would wear on a midnight run to Wal-Mart.
Embarrassingly bad. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9.0pt;">Thursday we had only 2 hours to do some

<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9.0pt;">Friday we were at mission council in Paris,
and Saturday we were at district leader training meeting in Lille. Both those
days were great. I got to see a lot of faces I haven't seen for a while. Also,
while in Lille we ate at this burrito place and they had Jarritos! I haven't
had that stuff forever. It was really good. Sunday was great as always. We have
started a weekly podcast for our zone. Ill see if I can attach it. It's pretty
good. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9.0pt;">Today we went to Jules Vernes home. He lived
in Amiens! And then we went to an American restaurant for their bottomless
steak fries. It was delicious. Well thats all I got for this week. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

This past week was the last week of the transfer and....like always transfer news came out on Saturday! I will be staying another transfer with Elder Mansfield in Amiens. Honestly we expected that so it's not that big of a deal. I am super excited to be staying another 6 weeks with Manny. We had a terrific last transfer so hopefully this one will be the same. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday we were jammed pack with appointments because we knew that the rest of the week we would be gone. We were able to see Jefferson, Garoux, Miguel (a new investigator), and lots of others. Everything is going swell with our investigators. We have gone back to the basics with Jefferson and it seems to be going really great. Thomas and Lula are also doing great. Lula is trying to get a job so that she can move out to allow them to get baptized. </div>

<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Friday we went to a finding day in Calais. Really ugly city with the exception of an incredibly beautiful town hall. Ill attach a photo. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Friday night we were in Lille and Saturday we were in Valenciennes. I had never been to the town before it is a quaint town. We had quite a bit of success hunting down less actives too. It was a great day. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
When we got back to Amiens, Mansfield took us out to dinner at an American place for his birthday. It was actually pretty good. The milkshake was the bomb and the burger wasn't half bad. They put pastrami and cheddar on it! It was on a wheat bun though. </div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="direction: inherit; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Sunday was spent getting ready for the next transfer. Manny and I have made some pretty solid plans for the transfer. I'll keep y'all up to date when they happen. </div>

Monday we went bowling for 3 hours. It was super fun. We bowled 8 games and I still haven't lost my touch. Ok maybe a little bit. Haha. Have a great week! God Bless</div>
