Week 37: I Think People Just Simply Like Canceling on Missionaries

Well hello hello hello again......
Hey Everyone!!
It was great to hear from all of you this week! Thank you!!! I'm glad to hear that everyone had a very Happa Halloween!!

I got to help Miriam this week write start writing her talk. Its her first assignment since being baptized and its really pushing her and I'm really excited and happy for her.  The topic is on adversity, at first I thought that it was way too hard of a topic for her for being such a recent convert, but it is going to end up being such a perfect and inspired topic for her. I am so excited to hear it.

So this next week should be fun!! We get to go to France twice, I'll have to let you know about the adventures
Ha, so on Tuesday we got to teach Adele who is still going strong for her date on the 23rd. We taught her with her daughter at a little cafĂ©. Ha we taught them the word of wisdom as they were drinking coffee. It was pretty ironic, if i can say so. But she took it really really well actually. She doesn't really understand why she can't have coffee but she said that if God wills it, she will do it.  So that's pretty darn cool. and she doesn't pray to her angels anymore!! Awesome right? She prayed to God and it the name of "Thy Only Beloved Son, Amen"... needless to say, I'm pretty darn proud of her.

We also went to visit the same less active that I was bold about with tithing. This time my comp promised her that she would find new work hours if she came to church four times in a row. Ha, when she made that comment I looked at her like WHAT? Ha, but she was told by the spirit to do so, so I support her!!

We had an awesome lesson with Sofia on the plan of salvation. she said that it is too good to be true. We used the Book of Mormon lots as we taught it and I think she is starting to finally see why we need the Book of Mormon because she said for the first time that she needs to start to read it!! Uhh... yeah ha we agree!!! i hope that she actually does.

The elders have an investigator that is a refugee so he can't leave the country, He turns 18 in a week or 2 and will probably have to be baptized in a kiddie pool that we fill up with water cuz we can't use the pool right now and the river is too cold and there is no font in Lux... hah so this will be interesting.

Well, this week was boring I'm sorry.

Everyone canceled on us so ya... it wasn't a very fun week, but we did get to find a cool lady that was staying in Lux for the weekend. She seemed really interested and we tried to act all casual, like we weren't excited that she was excited. We asked her if she'd be interested in the Paris missionaries visiting her since that is where she is from... she couldn't hold in her excitement and said OUUIIIII Like squealed it and clapped her hands at the same time. She was super cool and super cute and I hope that the mission down there can get a hold of her.

Well, that's all folks!
Love you and talk to you in seven days!

Love
Soeur Kohlert
