this week was wonderful!! some funny things happened!! we went to ST MARTIN to go be with the sisters there and do some training, so we were supposed to leave tuesday night and come back thursday morning... but we were planning monday night and i was like 'im just gonna go check the tickets to jsut recheck' and all the sudden were like 'uhhh is this tuesday night or tuesday morning??' and ew call all the elders and the travel guy for the mission and turns out it was MORNING!! haha so luckily i loked cuw then we had to leave super early in the morning and we got to be in st martin 2 days!!!! wohoo!! that was crazy! but it was lcuky that i checked!! haha so we were in st martin 2 days and it was wonderful!! those sisters rock!! i had one of the best lesson of my life with one of the sisters there that is just on her 2nd transfer! man is she good at following the spirit!! but anyways st martin is just wonderful! the church is actually a church and theres so many languages! theres spanish dutch and french members!! oh my i would not mind serving in st martin i tell ya!! but anyways it was so fun to be able to help those soeurs and see how awesome the churhc is in st martin!!
oh man but miracle for this week!! so the vauclin aka south of martinique is doing wonderfully! soeur riley is just the best!! so first off just gotta tell you about hector this guy is hilarious! rose's boyfriend whos 79! hahaha anyways so weve taught him a couple times while rose is in france and he says hes catholic and the jehovahs witnesses keep coming by but hes reading and sometimes he remembers joseph smiths nalme!! anyways so we get there and were like 'hector are there people here?' and hes like'yes come look!!' and points to his tv on!! hahahaah so then were like 'ok can we turn off the tv for the lesson' and he turns it off and hes like ' oh my friends left!!' hahaha this guy is a quick one i tell ya! and then he like tells us he got pulled over by a police man for rolling too slow!! haha so he fought the police man! haha! he was joking about the fighting part but idk about the rolling too slow part! hahaha anyways hes hilarious! Rose will help him get baptized as soon as she gets back! they are so cute!
so then our miracle :) so im on a hunt for families right!! so our mission leader tells us he met this spiritual lady and that we should go see her! he like drove her home or somethign so he expalins that she lives by this sign and im convinceed i know the sign (turns out i was totally wrong) anyhow! so we see this beatuiful house and we got up! a little nervous cuw the house is so big and awesome! and its this family of 5!! mom dad 3 kids!! and they just let us up! i offered to helpher water her 2 plants and she lets me and we play with her dog for a sec and then theyre like all ready to be taught right then!! so we like hada lesson about the gospel with them through the book of mormon and the dad was like 'i cant go to church tomorrow but next sunday!!' so this family is aweosme!!!!! WHAT!! that was inspired! so grateful that that member gave us that contact! so members! tell the missionaries woh to visit and there will be miracles!! haha but the lady he wants us to visit lives down the road.. we'll go find her another day haha but what a miracles!!
and yes then we had a carribean confrence with elder holland and packer!! is was awesome!! my favorite was actually this guys who spoke first in smanish. he talked about how nephi and lehi had such a perfect faith that they KNEW things would come. future blessing were like present knowledge if that makes sense? anyways it was great. a bunch of old mormons on a cruise showed up and watched it in elgish with us haha it was weird to see american mormons again!
well this gospel is true! missions are the best thign ever! i love you all!!
