Turns out that the mission thought that they were paying the bill... but with a huge mess of stuff it turns out that the transactions weren't working. But we can stay so that's good!
This week was kinda slow and not super exciting, so I'm sorry ha but things are going over here in Luxembourg. There is a lady moving to Lindon. She got your address and is supposed to get a little paper to you! Maybe she will. They live more towards the mountains. But that was kinda cool.
Wednesday we got to go to Nancy in France for Zone conference and interviews! I wish we had more than 5 minutes to talk to president! With over 200 missionaries, he just has so much on his plate! I can't imagine being him at all.

On Tuesday I was semi down and just wanted to be done... ha, but we went to see this woman who moved from Cape Verde where she was converted and just never found the church here .She just had the most amazing testimony of prayer. She really lifted my spirits. She was in tears, as was her step daughter and I. She said she was going to come back to church... she didn't but her experiences really helped me. I am having a hard time finding motivation. I need to do some repenting and some more sacrificing I think. I just need to find a greater desire to share the gospel despite how amazingly difficult it is.

Another story that helped me this week: So members when they were younger were poor but liked to take their kids to the river to play. They only had enough money for the train rides so they brought a packed lunch. The kids were really really thirsty but they had drank all of the water. The youngest daughter said mom... obviously all we need to do is pray and the Lord will give us what we need. The mom was reluctant but she said a big prayer inside that God wouldn't let her down in this precious teaching moment. So they knelt down to pray and right when they finished.. one of the other kids came running out of the river with an unopened bottle of lemonade that he just found floating down the river as he was playing. How amazing is that?
So Fatima is doing well. She is the one that called the church and wanted to meet with us. She came to the ward party and brought a cake and everything. Too bad it was raining so we had to do it inside. Its cold here now. Mom was saying that its super hot over there... SHARE IT! Ha, We are already wearing jackets and my boots are going to come on here in about a week or so. Anyways I'm afraid she's just joining for the social reasons. We want her to have a testimony and I think she feels like the 8th is too soon so we will probably push that back this week.
We taught Lydia the WOW this week.She had never heard of alcoholism before and I was just so grateful that I have parents that teach me things like this. She is only sixteen but still! She said shed try to keep it so pray for her! She likes to go clubbing.
One of our not-all-of-the-way-there amis drove us to church yesterday... Ha ha we didn't know the roads and we almost died a few times.. Well not really, we just went down one way streets the wrong way. Good thing we made it safe!!
I love you all! I hope school is going well. This week is going to be a good week. I just feel it. So be sure to turn in next week! Ha ha
Love,
