Sorry I don't have a time a lot of time to write emails this week, our email time kind of got cut in half because we got a new dryer because ours has been broken.
I am loving Lyon though! Holy cow this city is HUGE, haha I am so used to little annemasse that having trams is blowing my mind. The city is really pretty though and there is so much work going on. We have had a lot lessons, ha but also a lot of tombez-vous this week. I am really excited to keep getting to know everyone though, especially in our ward and all our amis. Me and Soeur Lowder have plans to really spark up our ward, and get to know them really well. In the past they haven't always worked with missionaries a ton, but we are excited to really get to know them! Soeur Lowder is so awesome, and I am so grateful and happy to be here with her! A few high lights from this week were. A 15 min with a mom, who told us some incredible stories about prayer, and how she wasn't supposed to be able to have children and then she had a daughter and a son. It was a really incredible story and an incredible testimony to the power of prayer and trust.
We went to help out a member do her courses, we thought for an hour but she took a really long time. So we ended up spending all night with her, and we were starving so we ran and grabbed a very ghetto dinner consisting of juice and pain de lait avec chocolat (basically hot dog buns with chocolate) I was also carrying around a pineapple the elders here had given us. So we got a lot of funny looks, it was good to be able to do service with her. She is so cute and calls us her little sisters. Terry metzger (a less active, who is a brother of our ami) made so many jokes and bought us a pain o chocolate for breakfast the next day. They nicknamed me Soeur ok... haha it was an interesting rendez vous.
Learning how to get around Lyon, and meeting all of the people here! I promise more is coming next week! But I love you all, and so does heavenly father! He is with you always and I know the best thing we can ever do is serve and love him.
Je vous aime!
Soeur Soffe
