Wow!


    This week was surreal and unfortunately I have been running back and forth from Paris and doing my best to keep up with everything.  Unfortunately I do not have much time to write today!
    FIRST OFF!!! Big news!  Damien has gotten his answer and he is ready for the baptism!!!! He is super excited and everyone is pumped here!! He will be baptized this coming Saturday and I will be either confirming him or baptising him.... I can't remember which.   What a great experience for my new comp!!! BTW His name is Elder Costner and he is from New Mexico and he is super cool! We are doing great and I am trying to figure out how to teach him a language that I don't even know too well, he he he! No it's great and OOH other great news, Damien has already started sharing the gospel with his family and now his sister wants to be baptized too!!!! I am too excited to really explain with an e-mail!
     Well our amies our progressing very well and Armelle is getting SO close to baptism. She's just struggling a little with trying to forgive herself and to not take things out on herself....sounds familiar. God is funny. I was able to relate with her very well and share some really touching experiences I had in Dunkirk. I was able to tell her how true charity for others starts with loving ourselves and having a testimony that we are truly Gods children and that he loves us SOO much!!   She is doing much better!!
We even found a new guy porting for the first time on Elder Costner's part, and are starting to pick up a few I already found with Elder Fisher!! Things are great and I loves you tons and I am sorry this is so stinking short.
LOVES and KISSES
Love Elder Lyons
