servez vous

This week, started out a little different, it was really windy and rainy, me and my companion were just finishing up our personal studies, and starting our team studies, we got a text and found out that Thomas S. Monson had died. it was a really weird, he was really the my first prophet i was old enough to remembrer and learn from, the one that i was closest to. i learned alot from him, to never hesitate to do something good, when you think of someone, dont be afraid to do something for them, because often God will work through us to help his work. he was a good man! the Church is true, and how grateful i am that the authority to guide the church is still on this earth!! 

during this week, we had some exchanges with my district leader, me and him went into a small city in my Sector and we were going to do some door to door. we had some great conversations with people. it was really great and we found this door with a bowl of candy that said Servez vous, which means, serve yourself. it took me back to halloween days when kids would run around the neighbourhood and with the bowls on the porch, they would take all the candy, those bandits. but we only took a few chocolates, that doesnt happen every day ;) 

we had a some meetins with members this week, one of my favorite things to ask, is how did you get to know the church! and they tell the story and wow. the spirit always feel the room as they testify of what they have felt and seen in their lives! the questions will always come back to me, and i will say i was born in the church, but wait, that doest mean i was converted just because i was born in the church, so i go on to explain my experiences that ive had, one way ive really gained a testimony is by the promise in the front of the book of mormon, that says that if a man will abide by the precepts of the book of mormon, a man will grow closer to god. ive seen how thats been in my life. 

yesterday, there was a baptisme for a little girl in our ward, a baptisme is a great things for our amis, and all the ward members to come to! we send out texts to prettymuch everyone in our phone and it was so great!  one of our amis that we had found earlier that week came! shes an older woman, speaks french, english, german, spanish, shes super funny and has a good desire to learn more about what happens at our church! there was also a few other people from our contacts that came and we were able to make really good contact with them and feel a good spirit with them!

voila, i think thats all, the swiss is going great! people are really really nice, they love talking. the members here are soo great and strong, i love the mountains and all! 

love you all!
