Hey y'all back home. I hope all is going well. Everything is super here in France. It’s starting to get cool and the leaves are changing. It’s pretty great to be in a place where fall happens when it is suppose to and not in December! But that just means it’s going to get very cold, great. Anyways my week …
Monday was great. Just the normal stuff in the morning. It was a surprise when we got to emails to find out that Elder Whatcott was leaving because we both thought he was going to stay one more transfer! But it was fun after that we did some packing and got haircuts and ate dinner. Then we went and visited some of our amis to say goodbye and also teach. It was a fun night with some tears and pictures and of course the spirit. I love teaching these people about the gospel. It is amazing how simple it is and yet blesses us so much and to see people feel the spirit so strong that they know everything we are saying is true. It is one of the best parts of being a missionary
Tuesday was awesome. Elder Whatcott finished packing in the morning. We then left and got the tickets for our train tomorrow then we ate lunch with a member family from the ward. They made spaghetti it was very good. We then taught another lesson with one of our amis and Elder Whatcott said goodbye and we got a picture of course. Then we had dinner then left for Belfort where we stayed the night before Transfers
Wednesday Today was transfer day. We got on a train headed for Paris. Then we dropped of our old companions at the church and I met my new one. His name is Elder Johnson. He is from Utah and he is the oldest in his family of 4. He has 2 brothers and 1 sister and he is great. He is only one transfer ahead of me. Then we got on our long train back, ate diner, and then did some porting. We met Zorica and her family and taught a lesson with them and that was that day.

Thursday We woke up and did the normal workout, ate breakfast, showered, and of course my favorite part studying. It was a blast. Then the Chastons came over and fixed our door. We ate lunch and then went out and did some contacting and some porting so I could show Elder Johnson more of Mulhouse. Then we taught Laurent at the church, ate dinner and finished up the night with some porting. It was a great day.
Friday was a very busy day with DMP meeting and then weekly planning and transfer planning but we did have some time to do some contacting and we even found this new guy and this family from Brazil who we are going to start teaching. It was amazing.
Saturday we helped this family move from their apartment into a house. It took a while but it was a great service and we had some fun. Then after that we did some contacting and then taught a lesson to Mona and Idris. Elder Johnson got to meet them as well and he is getting better with knowing our amis and Mulhouse which is super. We are loving our time together
Sunday was church and it was a great sacrament. The only thing that would have made it better is if we had our amis there. grrr why don't they come? Anyways Elder Johnson got to meet our members. I just gave out all the cards I have left. They are a hit here! The members love them so much. It is great! We also ate lunch with some members after church then the rest of the night we did porting and taught some lessons. It was a great first week for the transfer.
