So I am about done with my week here in Calais. I will be heading to Dunkerque this Wednesday to continue my wonderful adventures ,à la bas ,with Elder Kirkland's MTC comp., Elder Porter. I can't wait to get back to work there! Calais was great and all, but I definitely miss Dunkerque.
OK, quick little things to get outta the way! I forgot to ask Pres. about giving out our number, but I am pretty positive I cant. The church address in Dunkerque is: (Rue de Bruxelles, Coudekerque Branche---name of the tiny town ) If you are wondering why there isn't a number, it's because it doesn't have one. It is a super tiny street and kinda hard to find. If you can get to the street, you cant miss it! Tomorrow we have to come back to write a quick e-mail to President, so I can get better directions to you then.
Anyways, This week in Calais we did a ton of less active work. We officially re-activated a sister in Saint Omer and got her to engage in the quit smoking program! She has come to church the past three weeks in a row since the Elders here have started seeing her! She is super nice!
We went on splits with an old guy who took elder Decker with him and taught his neighbors. Me and elder Kellett went porting. This old guy just walks up to his neighbors houses and basically goes proselyting every day. He is so stinking tight!
Then we also got to spend one day in Dunkerque, but I was only able fix one rendezvous, which was with Tia! We had a really good lesson on prayer and we asked her to really commit to praying every day. We talked about how to pray more meaningfully, and how we can receive answers. She says she already has and knows that God lives!!! OK, well the student has become the master!!!!!! We are gonna try and commit her to baptism after the next lesson about the commandments!
After all of this, we had to clean both of the apartments for the next transfer. This took quite awhile, but it is finished and life is going good!
Sorry this weeks e-mail is so short, but we have only one computer and three elders. I went last, after they spent three hours here, so I had a lot of time to write letters. Hopefully those will get there soon!!!!
Well I love all of y'all and I AM SO PUMPED FOR YA JOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
