Cool stuff like what? Like calling my family on Mother's
Day! There were a few other cool things too, so we can start with those haha
I had an exchange this week and I was a little worried about
it. Why? Because I was going to be with a Tahitian elder who hardly spoke
english! I would have to speak frnehc the whole time! Well, it worked out! It
was actually pretty great, and we were able to talk the whole time! So thank goodness
my french skills are at least where they are haha but that doesnt mean I still
dont have a lot to learn! I definitely will keep learning, and I'm being put on
the fast track for it too! I'll explain that a little later haha
After the exchange last week, we also got to see our ami
Jean-Pierre, and that went well. He still has the desire to be baptized, and he
wants to change his life! And he is already starting to! We're really excited
for him and I'm excited to keep teaching him!
The other two kids that we're teaching are doing well too,
they come to church every week and they're always excited to see us! It's funny
because now I'm one of those missionaries that kids love to run up to and talk
to haha. My companion and I are both like that!
As everyone knows, Sunday was Mother's Day! It was a great
day at church, the men in the ward here sang a song for the women, and then the
Primary kids did a little program and everyone loved that more than the men
singing, but we cant compete with cute kids! Then after church, it was time to
call our families! It was awesome to talk to my parents and my brother and to
see them on skype (my call at Christmas was on the phone). It was cool to just
chat and talk like old times! I love that my family gets along so well!
Then last night I got a call on the phone, and it was the
assistants telling me that I'm going to be staying in Charleroi and I'll be
training the next 2 tranfers! Ai karumba! Hopefully I can handle it! I know
that if the Lord thinks I can do it, that I'll be able to. So I'll be headed to
Paris this Wednesday to pick up the new missionary! I'm excited, nervous, and
little scared, and then also sad to see my current companion go, but I know
that I'll just need to put in all the effort I can and set a good example for
my new companion!
I hope you're all doing awesome! I little spiritual lift for
me this week was Alma 58:40, you should read it! Despite all the other
distractions and problems in life, we can always remember the Lord is there for
us!
Until next week! Keep it classy! And keep being the best you
can be!
Elder Daniel Anderson
