I feel bad for y'all, I'm not gonna get the good pictures of today until later (because I'm not a particularly gifted photographer), so the pictures of visiting Carcassonne again will be lower quality. My apologies...
So this week was super busy again, which is honestly really fun as a missionary !
1) we had a "calm before the storm" moment on Wednesday, and we were able to do a BUNCH of contacting. We'd made pass along cards specifically for conference, and we handed out a whole bunch ! We met one man who spoke perfect English, and though he's not available this weekend, we're meeting with him this week, and I'm super stoked !!!
2) We had some members invite us and one of our friends, Bruno, over for dinner, which was AMAZING !!! It was so nice to have a less formal time for him to get to know them, and we talked food (we are in france after all...), which was super fun. The dinner was amazing, oh my goodness. I need to learn to cook.
3) Conference was incredible ! One of our friends came, and it was his first time ever going to church. That kind of blows my mind, but it just made me stop and think how grateful I am to have the complete gospel of Jésus Christ at the center of my life. I had a really good time listening to conference, and I know that I'm a better person for it. Even if it is a bit of a struggle sometimes, especially when I'm listening to it in french, or when they asked us to translate Jeffrey R. Holland into french (do not try to translate that man, just say no).
4) We went and saw the Carcassonne fortified city again, and honestly, it's such an experience ! I could go back a dozen times and not get bored, because it's just so incredibly impressive. Massive towers, extensive walls, a complex history... the nerd in me can't get enough !!!
I love y'all, and hope you guys got a bunch out of general conference, and that you have great weeks as you start applying what you learned!
