Parents and a week away

Heyy this week was great! We spent time living with the branch President this week because of the repares being done in our appartement. I got to really know then and I am so grateful for them. I learned so much of the sacrificed that they make to serve the Lord. Consicrated Sacrifices bring blessings. 

We had a great testimony builder that no matter what city you are in God is preparing people to meet missionaries. 

Where the branch President lives it is a small out in the southern country side of France. My companion and I decided to go  and walk around and see if anyone would talk to us. We found this lady who had always been missionaries in our country but she never talked with them . She took the time to listen and she said that she has been praying to find some people to worship with and to learn about God! It was amazing. we have her a book of Mormon and it was really super. 

I'm loving the members and people in Angoulême! Hope you all find a chance to invite someone to church!

"Only the brittish can make a stratégique retreat look like a victory" President Banks

Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing good! 

This last week has been crazy and alot of fun! Haha we started in our sector doing some contacting and teaching, while contacting we had 2 people who said they would like to be baptised and see the Restored church of Jesus Christ. 

We have been kicked out of our appartement for a whole 15 days because they are repainting the walls. We left to go to poitiers and I got to see some of the old amiss that I've worked with, one of which texted the elders that day and asked to have and interview with the branch President for her baptism. 
I also got to see my good friends Hervé and Charlotte who went to go to baptism for the dead this Easter week end. 

When getting back into angouleme to stay the night before going to church the next day, and upon arriving to our appartement I realised that the keys were in my coat which was left in poitiers. We called our branch President and his wife and went and stayed with them. Which we will be staying with for this comming week. We love them and they are so great they are from England. 

Anyways God is great! He is blessing those who keep his commandments. 

Love
Elder Bennett

White man invented time, but the black man has the watch

Good morning all! I hope you're all doing great! 
This week was an awesome fun packed week on the mission! 
We spent the first part in Toulouse having zone conference. 

We talked aboutthe power of an invitation. It's really amazing the power of what an invitation does. I've seen that for the past year or so. Anywhere I go I try to invite new people to church and it's amazing to see all the people who are looking and who will accept this invitation to grow their faith. 
"It is never to early to invite. " if you have an ami that's not dooing 100 of what they should. Invite them to do so. If you have a friend not a friend or family member not a member of th4 church. Invite them to church with you. It will be so worth it. 

We got back into our sector and worked with some of our friends. 
Rimthe who is almost 2 meters tall is awesome and loved the restoration. We are preparing for his baptise soon and so please keep him in your prayers.

Over the many meetings I've had I have to express my overwhelming gratitude for this great gospel. It truly is a great and marvellous work. I know God lives. I know Jesus is the Christ. Keep on going strong!  

Love you all:) 

Elder Bennett.

Jésus sauve

Good morning brethren and sisters, 
This last week was great. We had some great time in angouleme and got to see a few of our new friends. 

A few of them are really cool. 
One make is really tall. He honestly is as big as elder tairapa (6'9") 
Haha we walked into his house and his family was sitting there and we were able to teach them the restoration. Please keep them In your prayers and we will hope they will continue to progress in the faith! 

There is also another man who we taught from Spain. We showed him the video of Jesus baptism and it's such a great spirit that feels the room as we think of the example Jesus Christ has set for us. He is the light and the way. 

We were able to go back to poitiers to do an exchange, I saw all of our friends like Hervé and charlotte. they are seeing miracles with their situation. I was with Elder ley who speaks great French English and Spanish. He is a Super missionary. 

And conference was amazing. Repenting is the way to use the atonement of Jesus Christ. 

Have a great week! 
See you soon!
