Well well, we just go the transfer email:) And yupppp Im still here in Rennes. By the end of this transfer I will have spent 1/3 of my mission here! Pretty cool. Ha, the ward is just going to have to love me cause they get 6 more weeks of me. I am very happy about it. Not only do I LOVE my companion and we are having a good time, but we now have 4 BAPTISMAL DATES for the month of July. We have the three that I told you about earlier: Gladys, Lucy, and Mandal, and also Shaina (Sh _ eye _ nah). She is an 8 year_old who comes to church with her grandma. Her parents are not members; and therefore, she is an investigator. She is so stinking cute and she just loves us. Her mother sits in on her lessons sometimes so maybe there is potential ther, I am not sure yet. But how cool is that! Our mission has a goal to have 100 baptisms before the month of Septembre when Elder Oaks is coming, and I really pray that all 4 of ours goes through so that we can contribute.
This week was semi hard. We were tired. Its been really rainy and yucky and we were just having a hard time getting ourselves up and going. But we have been really working together and trying to motivate one another.
We had the music festival this friday. Ha it was HILARIOUS. The members crack me up. Hearing french people sing american songs and dancing is just hilarious. I cant wait to show you that video when we get home. The violin songs all ended up going well. I think. I dont think anyone really cared how they sounded; just that we played. But it was a good time and Gladys came so that was cool. We were semi frustrated because only Shaina came to church... we knew lucy wasnt going to come, but as for mandal and gladys who knows. I was pretty dissappointed.
But we're still pretty busy over here. We're teaching lots of lessons and we're trying to find new investigators. Its kinda stressful getting 4 people ready for baptism, but its a good stress. I just hope and pray that no unexpected problems come up.
That is cool that you got to see Nicole at that missionary thing. I hope she is doing well. it sounds like she likes her companion and having lots of fun.
Well sorry that this week wasnt the most exciting. Ha... still just doing missionary work over here.
Love you all,
Soeur Kohlert
