 I'll Give You a Hint: I'm Serving with a Citizen from the Winning Country Against France this Past Week.


GUTEN TAG. AGAIN. Staying in Montauban for round two, except only this time I'm serving with my second German! Das ist gute. Her name is Sœur Reichelt and she is on fire. She kind of scares me a little actually (haha.......). With that said, we will have a total of four baptisms this transfer. We are teaching a family that has a date for the 15th of August and they are having to climb some painful obstacles. Please pray for the Tomasin (Tom-ah-zahne) family :) There are going to be crazy miracles this transfer.

FACTS I LEARNED: 

• I'm old in the mission. Don't know when that happened. I'm practically in the missionary retirement home.
• In the missionary retirement home, you have to work really hard to keep your mind sharp and your muscles from atrophying away.
• The senior couple, the Burtons, in Clermont Ferrand is getting transferred to NICEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CLERMONT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!!
• In good news, one of the little boys I taught in Clermont got baptized this Saturday!! I am so, so happy :)

Sœur Green

Here's the little tike :) I'm so sad I didn't get to be there.
Sœur Grunke told me that the whole family was crying and more than half the ward showed up.

After transfer calls, Sœur Caldwell and I treated ourselves to our first restaurant experience in over a year.
She is happily serving in the city of Tarbes now.
Also, I discovered that I needed to relearn restaurant etiquette. haha

Oh, and let me tell you how great it is to celebrate the Forth of July with an eighty year old French woman.
It is great.

We lost some really good missionaries in our district this transfer.
Here's a tribute to Elder Peel, whose head is cut off in the photo unfortunately. Huzzah!

Our good friends, the Tomasins. August 15th guys.
This family will be a blessing to this branch.

We had an activity on Sunday were we made cookies with a few families...and we caught this little guy licking the dough off the roller. Thankfully we bless the food before we eat it.

Couldn't resist posting this photo of one of our member families.
The World Cup here is even bigger than the superbowl in America.
Amplify our enthusiasm by twelve thousand. People even get off work early to go home and watch it.
