Alma and amulek

Great week 6 to finish the transfer here in Talence. 
Got up early Tuesday morning to work in the garden of our Ward mission leader Frere cade**. He had a pretty french redneck way of lifting up his shed to make it straight but  it worked. So no complaints. Haha while working I was moving a rock from off the roof and I got stung by a caterpillar. Haha didn't know that could happen. But had a pretty cool mark for a few days. We then went back to our house and changed then went and taught a lesson to une amie named jeniff***. Back ground story ~~《Saturday  before ,we were going to samedi sport and contacting on the bus. I sat down next to think young lady and start talking too her. Turns out she's from Colombia speaks decent French but there are a few church words that she didn't understand so gotta try a bit of Spanish, when it came to the stop that we needed to get off at, she was giving me her number so we could have a meeting later that week *Tuesday after gardening* but it was taking a while to get her number. My companion ElderThomas was also talking to someone and was following him off the bus. But as missionarys we need to stay together. So he had this friend he was talking to who was getting of the bus and I was talking to my friend my comp gets half way off the bus and half way in, doesn't know what to do,  cause I'm still setting this meeting up on the bus. Then the doors close on my comp. Hahaha with the doors closing on my comp, if friend calling him to come. Me looking at him telling him we need to stay on(at that moment I didn't know he had found someone) haha he just sat in the middle of the door way and got slammed in the door like 5 or 6 times with everyone looking at him thinking "what is this kid doing?" Haha it was pretty dang funny, and I was trying to go laugh cause me and this lady were talking. Haha 》~~ fast forward back to Tuesday we had a Meeting with the girl I met. Turns out she's only been believing for 5 years. She's about 23 years old. She told us that the day she met me she had prayed to God and said," God I hope you haven't forgotten about me". It was a great lesson and she really liked it. 
After that we went and say one of our new amis who basically only speaks Arab but wants to believe in Christ. He came to church yesterday so that was good. We also visited a member who has been struggling with an addiction that we have been helping him work through and it's been great teaching him. 

Haha we saw a family thing week the family lancel**, such a funny family. First time I went over was a few weeks ago and they made us chicken. I took a chicken thigh and the problem was is that there was that I took the last one. And the little girl wanted one too. Anywas. This week when I went over they were all teasing me about the cuisee de poulet.. Haha good times with that family. 

The following day we went to the Barp. Ate some great food. Mushrooms stuffed with Meat. Very delicious. And did some work to help the Branche of Barp. 

Went over to the Lormont appartement to help one of my good buddies Elder Nasman out. And that was the night before calls. 

Friday we woke up and got our calls.im leaving Bordeaux and going to Ecully to serve with elder sundwall a super stud who came in with me to the mission. It's going to rock. I already did an exchange with him and holy. LETS GOO.  

We stopped by a members house later that night and told them bye and all. This older member frere picar*. Love MacDonald so he then invited us over the following day to ear with him and the family Vendassi! We had a great time eating with them. They just got back from corse and said they saw Elder Jensen. 

Yestersy was great at church. Talked about ministering again like usual and after went to So*** Seguins! It was awesome and we got to teach about the priesthood and give blessings as well! Then went to a baptism which was super well done. And after went to the last Mangez vous In Talence. Got to see the family moutoumal**. Loved eating crepes with. them and laughing a whole lot. They always ask us to share our embarrassing stories and we got to share the on about the bus finding. 

We are children of God. He loves each on of us. We are princes and princesses. 

Love you all! Have a good week:)
