Marie took us to see a cool castle that was destroyed in WWI. It was cool. The prison was only accessed by a hole, like 50 ft above the prison ground. The guards would attach the prisoners to a rope and lower them down and they literally had no way to escape. haha so cool. Maybe I'll have to make a dungeon in my house like that for my kids when they get bad.
Tuesday we went to Paris for more legality stuff. It was cool because it was the same day but one year later that I arrived in France. I took pictures from the same spot i did a year ago. So cool.
THEN Tuesday night we got our neighbor Logan and his friend to come play soccer with the ward! And we also got a few other less actives and it was a BLAST!! Everyone loved it and the boys couldn't stop talking about it to Alexandra when they got home. The coolest thing was that Logan asked who Mormon was on the car ride home and we got to talk a bit together!!
The Elders had a baptism that was so beautiful. We tried to do a musical number, Savior Redeemer of My Soul... it didn't quite work out. We tried.
We also got to do some yard work/service for the bishop. Their backyard was like a forest and by the time we were done it was some pretty dirt ha. It was funny because bishop was like... How in the world do you sisters know how to do yard work? Don't you guys have Mexicans? Every time I go to Utah there are always Mexicans working in your yards..... Haha....thanks mom for teaching me how to weed.
Sister Vance and I got back into our teaching swing! We have been teaching so powerfully together! We had a few lessons where we so happy with how well the spirit worked and how open our investigators were to receive the spirit. Its incredible the things that the Lord can do based on pure feeling. We asked one woman what it would mean to her if Joseph Smith was a prophet and she said, "I'd need to follow him and be baptized." Ding ding ding we've got a winner.
OH I almost totally forgot! The elders passed us an investigator named Isabelle who is just ROCKIN! She is a 24 year-old farmer came to church and wants to be baptized. The whole ward wants to have a FHE with her because she is just so normal and cool. She is so strong! Pray for her!!!
I love you all. I know that this is HIS work!!
