We have been trying to light the world everywhere we go, and i love being able to talk to people about Christ during this season, there is just miracles everywhere. For example today we were printing out some pictures and one of the workers came over and started talking to me, and he is interested and we will be seeing him this Wednesday. Other amazing miracles the dad and one of the daughters and their friend came to church!! haha we went out to get them and it was pouring pouring rain, haha so as we were waiting for the bus a member came and saved us taking us to church:) ahh guys just this families faith is amazing and I love them so so much. Also one of the amis of the eysine missionaries got baptized, i was able to teach her before and the spirit was so special! <br /><br />I am still in shock, haha and a little bit of denial that I am starting my last week as a missionary. I am so excited to see all of you, but ha I feel so torn thinking about leaving this country that I have fallen in love with and oh these people haha they are my little baguettes and i love them with all my heart. My heart is really just filled with gratitude. Gratitude for these last 18 months and how much I have learned and how much I have changed. I have a qoute up on my wall that says <br /><br />"By helping others come unto Christ you will find that you have come unto him yourself." -Henry B. Eyring <br /><br />I love this because it is so true, my relationship with my savior has completely changed and evolved because every day I have been able to help others come unto him. I have such a testimony of the divine potential that is within each of us (Romans 8:16-18) It has been so amazing to be able to teach people that they have a loving Heavenly Father who has plan for them, and loved them enough that he sent his son. This son who had much love, that he suffered all pains and sadness in this life so that he could help us become who we are all destined to be. I know with all my heart that he loves us, and I am so incredibly thankful to a member of his restored gospel which I know was restored by the prophet Jospeh Smith. This gospel is contained in the Book of Mormon, the book which has brought me the most happiness and peace I have found in this life. <br /><br />I have seen on the mission, how much the gospel can change our lives. The joy that comes from this gospel is such a testament to me of God's love for all of his children. I have been privileged to be able to teach people from all over the world, and a lot of refugees and i know that God loves each and every one of his children. Often the way he shows his love is through us, reaching out to someone who is in need. I have been sharing this gospel because i love my brothers and sisters and i want them to inherit their potential and return to live with their Father and Savior. So please think of who needs this gospel, and I invite you all to share it with them. This is often started by just pure service and being a friend. Light someone's world this week, and you will be amazed by what a change it makes in them but also in you! <br /><br />I'm so thankful for all of you and the friends you have been to me. I am so thankful for your support and love! <br /><br />Je vous aime<br /><br />À Bientôt! <br /><br />Soeur Soffe<div>

Week 76Bonjour tout le monde! <br /><br />Okay I'm so sorry because we have no time to email this week!! Because today we had a Christmas conference in Toulouse! Oh my it was so fun, we all went out with little Christmas packets and light the world! Then during lunch we got to watch cars 3, haha it was so weird to watch a movie, but way fun;) and then we had a more spiritual part of conference, and we had some amazing music numbers and then I gave my departing testimony with some other missionaries. It was literally so surreal, and yeah basically cried the entire time. Then at the end of the conference we sang les anges (our mission song) for the last time and I literally balled. Guys I just love love being a missionary and while I'm so excited to see you all, it's been so hard saying goodbye and thinking about living the people and the country I love so so much. <br /><br />But anyway on to more pleasant topics;) haha <br /><br />We were able to light the onuzi's world and we brought them our Christmas decorations and oh my goodness they loved it and it was so much fun!! <br /><br />We were able to see lots of members and they are just wonderful and I love this ward and being a missionary!! <br /><br />Sorry for this lame email! But I love you so much and I'm so thankful for all of you!! <br /><br />Also thanks for all your emails, sorry I have no time I will reply next week:) <br /><br />Je vous aime!! <br /><br />Soeur Soffe<div>

<br />
Oh my this week has been crazy and i feel like we havent even been here in Talence. But to start off on Tuesday we had an AMAZING RDV with the Albanian family, so we went over and we watched the retab film in shiqp (Albanian) and the mom literally explained the whole retab to her daughters and she has such a strong testimony of Joseph Smith. And each time we go over the two little girls pray with us helping them, but this time all 3 of the kids put our plaques on and then said they were missionaries so they had to pray by themselves and they both prayed by themselves!! It was so good, and then we were able to go back over and see them sunday night, behar (the dad) has been sick so they weren't able to come to church. BUT we taught them parole de sagesse and we used these little pictures we made and the pamphlet and they totally accepted it. Guys Anila has coffee everyday and after reading that it was revelation she just immediately accepted it! Their Faith is amazing. You guys their story just breaks my heart, because of outside forces they were forced to flea Albania and they are now trying to get papers as political refugees, and just the amount of things they have suffered is huge, yet they have such faith and hope in Christ. I feel like being here in France my eyes have really been opened, there is a lot of refugees here and all I want to do is help them more. I just testify that God loves each and all of his children!!<br />
<br />
So we literally traveled everywhere this week, on Wednesday we had to get up at 3 to catch our plane into Lyon for MLC. President Johnson of the 70 came and toured our mission and it was amazing to hear from him and learn. We were able to hear from him again on friday when we went down to Toulouse for zone conference. One thing I loved was when he talked about Ether 6 and how trials in this life, like the stormy seas the jaredites endured, help us to find happines in this life. One of my favorite qoutes is from an ensign that said "Calm seas don't carry barges to the promised land, stormy ones do." I still don't know why some of us are faced with a lot harder challenges in this life than others, but i do know that we are given trials to push us to become better they push us to become like Christ. I am thankful for hardships in this life because they are how i have become how I am today, and I am thankful for the trials I am going to have because they are going to make me into the person Heavenly Father wants me to be. <br />
<br />
We had some other really good lessons, and haha to celebrate thanksgiving on friday at our conference we all feasted on KFC, haha it was lots of fun!! <br />
<br />
I love you all so much, and I am so so thankful for all of you and that you do and all your prayers.<br />
<br />
Passez une très belle semaine! <br />

<br />
J'espère que vous avez tous passé une très bonne semaine! <br />
<br />
Okay everybody the cold weather is definitely here! Which means the scarfs and tights are out! We had a good week, haha but crazy comme dab' we had some really good lessons in the beginning of the week and good rdv with members. I had a super fun exchange with cute Soeur Thorne, I got to see what missionary work would be like with a car (it was so weird!!) Then on Thursday we had to go down to Aix en Provence to pick up Soeur Blackham's legality. Aix was beautiful and that was really fun to see, but oh man we had 14 hours on trains!! Haha we tried to talk to the people around us, which was actually cool we were able to give out some pamphlets. Ha and we kept ourselves busy with la Bible and le livre de mormon #missionarylife. It was a little hard being out of our sector because its the week before President Johnson comes and our whole mission is trying to work as hard as we can, and find the children that Heavenly Father had prepared to hear the gospel. Well everyone here is just another testament that God is a god of miracles; because even though we were out of our sector for 2 days we (thanks to His help) found 6 new amis this week!! I have never found as many new solid amis as I have this past transfer, and I'm so thankful for all of these people that God has been preparing!! It's harvest time folks!!<br />
<br />
My favorite miracle from this week was how we found 2 new amis. So a few weeks ago this cute girl who is like 13 came with her mom to the church to meet with us and the elders for english class. Well they invited me and soeur Blackham over to their house and we talked with her and her older sisters. Ha we talked for like 45 min and just bro'd out with them! Then we practiced English by speaking with them but then we showed them père céleste père terrestre in English and french. After we asked them if they had any questions (thinking they would ask us questions about the language) but then we started talking about how God is our Heavenly Father and they are both believing and we think we are going to be able to start teaching them!! They told us that we could come back anytime! So their family is actually from Georgia and they fed us this delicious Georgian bread with cheese and then haricots and ti was so good and they are just so nice! yay for new best friends!!<br />
<br />
In the spirit of thanksgiving, I'm just so so thankful to be here. Some days are really hard not going to lie, but wow I will never be able to thank Heavenly Father enough for allowing me to come here to France, honestly this country and people have my heart. Man I just love them so much, even if french people can be a little hard on the outside oh they are such softies and once you are in their heart you are there forever!! I love being a missionary because I really love this gospel with all my heart. I love my savior so much, I will never be able to express how grateful I am for his love and atoning sacrifice, or for his gospel that is restored on the earth. I am so thankful though I get to teach people everyday about their loving savior!! He loves you so much, and take a little time to show how grateful you are for all the blessings he has given you!!<br />
<br />
JE VOUS AIME!!! ❤️ <br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bonjour a tous!<br />
<br />
J'espère que vous avez passé une gavée bonne semaine, parce que moi, j'ai passé une gavé bonne semaine;)<br />
<br />
Okay honestly this week has just flown by, like faster than normal! It's been so good though, I am LOVING being with Soeur Blackham she is seriously the best and we are having a blast and she is just killing it in Talence. We had some really good lessons this week with some new amis and we are really excited to keep working with them:) ahh guys miracles are just all over, and I am so so thankful. <br />
<br />
Cool miracle this week, a few weeks ago me and sr rutter passed this cute Japanese mom with her kids on the street and then we both felt like we should turn around and talk to them. She was so cute and knew a little bit about the church, we didn't have a lot of time so we just left her with our card. Well that night one of our members texted us saying that we had talked with her friend a "momma japonaise" So we had been trying to set up a time to see her again, but she had gotten sick. Well this sunday the mom japonaise, whose name is Mona and her Husband and two cute kids came to church! It was great they loved it and they want to come next week!! Really its been humbling during this challenge of finding new amis, to see that after we put forth our best effort; Heavenly Father will literally do his work and bring the people to us who are prepared:)<br />
<br />
So I know I have talked about them a lot, but you guys are amazing Albanian family literally each week they just melt my heart with their love and kindness. They are in a really hard situation right now, because they were forced to flea their country and now are here really far from any family. The cute kids speak french, but the parents are trying to learn (haha we communicate in a mix of mimes french and Albanian) but wow I just love them. SO we had an inspired idea to give our little family a Christmas, because they probably aren't going to have one. So in using the video "light the world" we are visiting all of the members in our ward and we are showing them the video and then asking them to pick a day in December to go over with us and just give them something small for Christmas (like even old decorations, little cookies, or even just singing with us) We did this pensée with one of my favorite families from the ward, la famille moutamalya, and they loved it!! Ahh I'm so so excited to give our little family a christmas this year and help our ward light the world!! <br />
<br />
I love this gospel and I know its true!! Thank you so so much for the love, support, and all your prayers. I don't think you know how much I feel and appreciate it!!<br />
<br />
Je vous aime beaucoup beaucoup!!<br />
<br />
Unë të dua shum!!<br />

Week 72Bonjour à tous!! <br /><br />Sorry I don't have a lot of time because it's transfer day so I'll give you the highlights! <br /><br />So with transfers, it was so sad because soeur Rutter left, but I am going to receive Soeur Blackham as my comp and I'm so excited. I went on an exchange with her in Toulouse and she is so fun and kind and I'm so excited to work with her! <br />Halloween: me and soeur Rutter dressed up as french people and went around to members and did reverse trick r treating, so we would give them candy and a little note that said "on aime partager les bons bons, mais on aime encore plus partager l'évangile. Avec qui pourriez-vous partager l'évangile?" (We like sharing candy but we like even better to share the gospel, who could you share the gospel with?) ha it was really fun, the members didn't really understand that we were french people But quand même they were sparked<br />We had a lit rdv with Malini, i ended up teaching Malini the whole retab and it went so so well!! And ahh I just love her so so much, I think she is starting to understand better why we are here and she is really faithful and I just love her a lot. <br />We were able to see a lot of members this week, and you guys Talence is such an amazing ward and I am so so thankful to be here!! So blessed!! <br /><br />I love this gospel and I love being a missionary!! I can't believe it's already my last transfer, time just flies and I'm not ready for this to be over. Something I do when I run races is that when I'm nearing the end, it's not the time to slow down but it's time to SPRINT!! And that's exactly what I want to do these next few weeks is work as hard as I can and give Heavenly Father every last thing I have. I testify that this gospel is true, it's Christ's restored gospel on this earth! God has a plan for each of us, and he sent his beloved son to atone for all of our sins! I love my Heavenly Father and my savior and I want to serve them to the best of my ability! <br /><br />Have a wonderful week everyone!! <br /><br />Je vous aime beaucoup!! <br /><br />Soeur Soffe <div>

We have had some really cool miracles this week contacting on transport. I talked to this really cute girl who is a student here from China her name is jinqing and she is our new ami! We taught her once and she is so cute and I'm so excited to keep working with her!! God is so good, this is Christ's work, and if we work our hardest he will help us find Heavenly Fathers children who are ready! Being a missionary is the best guys, like seriously the best thing <br />Anyway yeah sorry I have no time but from last p-day me and Sr Rutter got a little patriotic. And then today we had such a fun p-day! A cute ami of the elders took us out to this wine château (Bordeaux is like the heart of french wine country) and we just got to walk around the country side and in these cute villes. And yeah guys I'm just obsessed with France 🇫🇷 and to make up for this lame email here are some pics:) <div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">J'espère que vous avez passé une belle semaine:)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Haha once again the week has just flown by, so i will do my best to remember the highlights:) Okay on Tuesday we had zone conference and oh it went soo good! So us and the zone leaders present (and then of course president) usually president and the assistants will give us a topic to present on, but this time ha we had 30 min each and they left us decide what the needs of our zone were. So after praying and planning with the zone leaders we felt the that we needed to remind the missionnaires why they are here and the power and authority of our calling. Sometimes I think as missionaries we forget that we are here representing our savior Jesus Christ. We have such an incredible opportunity to serve as the savior did and ,with his help, we can love as he loved! The spirit was so strong as we were able to discuss all together, and wow I am just so thankful to be a missionary. We are here to bring souls to Christ, and it's amazing to see his hand in our work each day. At the end our presentation me and soeur Rutter showed a video we had been putting together over the past few days (with presidents permission) we had been contacting the moms of everyone in our zone and we put together a video of all the missionaries opening their mission calls! Watching together was really special, quite a few missionaries were crying, and i was just so thankful the spirit had been there and we had talked about exactly what they needed! En plus we had an awesome American member make us a delicious lunch (we made a funny video to thank her, that ill put in the attachements:)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Had a fun exchange this week, and we are trying to keep working as hard as we can:) A cool miracle from this week was we had a lunch planned with a member family and when we got there he had invited a couple he had met a few weeks ago when he helped them when their car broke down. They are really sweet humble people, and it was really cool to teach them the retab. They want to come to church, and we are excited to keep working with them! What I loved about this is that we had a set a goal that day to find 2 new amis and we had been working hard and talking to everyone, and Heavenly Father saw our work and blessed with this new family to teach. I love how He always seems to work like that:)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I love this gospel, and I love my savior! I am so thankful to be here representing him! I love you all too, thanks for the support </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Je vous aime beaucoup beaucoup ❤️ </span><br />

We got to go visit our adorable Albanian family, and man I love them so much. They basically have nothing but they love us instantly with real, sincere love. Each time we see them they always give us some little snack to eat, and yeah they are my little family here in france:) That night we met with the other srs and a new ami invited us for dinner, we had a really good discussion answering his questions. <br /><br />Saturday we went over the Family we had found last week! Oh my I love them so much, they gave us lunch and again it was so good to be able to answer their questions and talk with them. The mom and dad both come from different religious backgrounds and yet they both are really faithful. One of my favorite things I have seen on my mission is how our Love of God can unite people across cultural and ethnic lines. We all have a loving Heavenly Father and I love getting to teach his children that he is there and he loves them! SO after lunch we had come in service clothes and we helped them paint their new kitchen. Haha the dad is surgeon so he had these surgeon scrubs for us to wear to protect our clothes haha we looked like blue nuns;) and as we were painting it was just us and Malini (the mom) and she opened up to us a lot and talked with us and ahhh i just love her so much!<br /><br />Sunday was great and man I just love this ward, they have an amazing spirit of missionary work! Two awesome families invited us over (and one of them invited a less active member we are working with) and we talked about the music of the gospel ( if you haven't seen this mormon message go watch it!) and how this is a gospel that resonates with our hearts and makes us joyful! <br /><br />I just love this gospel, I love this church, I love my savior, I love my Heavenly Father, I love my mission, and I love all of you!!<br /><br />Have a wonderful week!<br /><br />Je vous aime!<br /><br />Soeur Soffe<br /><br /><br /><div>

We talked a lot about connecting with people and finding new people to teach. So me and soeur Rutter have been trying to find new people and we had an amazing miracle this week. On Saturday we had planned time to go finding, we had set a goal the night before to find three new amis and we were determined to find them! We went out contacting in a few parks and we talked to a lot of people but no one was interested to learn more. We went to a bench to re-evaluate and we felt like we needed to go porting, it was time to go in for dinner but we were determined to find our new amis. It's been a long time since I've been porting, but we prayed and there was a street that felt good. There was quite a few people home but no one was interested, until this cute woman came outside and started talking with us. She worked in England and Scotland as a Nurse (she was sparked that I'm becoming a nurse) after talking for just a few minutes she asked if we wanted to come in for a drink. She let us in and we met her family, her husband is very kind and she has a cute daughter. We talked for a long time briefly talking about what we do as missionary and a brief retab. and we talked about families and left them with the family and Temples brochure. We are going back this next week to help them paint and then they want to invite us over for dinner and want to learn more! Literally me and soeur Rutter walked out in shock, they were so kind and so nice. It was such an incredible miracle, we have been praying to find people who are ready- especially families- and we found our family! I'm so thankful Heavenly Father led us to them 😊 <br /><br />There was a talk given in conference by Elder Rasband about God's divine design, and I have seen it so much on my mission that Heavenly Father is in the details of our lives and if we follow the spirit will put us in the right places and the right times. I promise that Heavenly Father has a plan for all of us, and I just hope and pray to be able to follow what he would have me do! <br /><br />Also We went to arcachon today and we were at the beach! We also went to the biggest sand dune in Europe. Seriously it was so much fun! <br /><br />I love you all so much! Thanks for your support and prayers <br /><br />Je vous aime <div>

<br />
Sorry I don't have like any time! But we got transfers calls and I am leaving Toulouse😢 buuuttt I'm going to Bordeaux and I'm companions with Sœur Rutter!! I've known her from Lyon when we were in the same zone and she is awesome and I'm so excited! <br />
<br />
But man I have to tell you leaving Toulouse after only 2 transfers about ripped my heart out, I love the members and JAs there so much and Sunday saying goodbye was rough. It was so hard to say goodbye to Kevin and Marie (our 2 new miracle amis) ugh already I've grown to love them like friends but we had some incredible RDVs this week and they are progressing so well, and wow I'm just so thankful for the time I was able to spend here and how much I've grown!! And of course today saying goodbye to Soeur gowans ugh again, haha honestly she is like my sister we teased each other and laughed all the time! Thank heavens MLC is in like a week and I'll see her soon! <br />
<br />
I can't believe that I'm going into my last 2 transfers already, what!? But ohh I am so so ready to give it my all and work as hard as I can. I love being a missionary so much, I love this gospel, and I love my savior with all I am. I know without a doubt this is his church and his work!! <br />
<br />
Je vous aime! <br />
<br />
Soeur Soffe <br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">J'espère que vous avez passé une bonne semaine:) I feel like i say this every week but I can't believe how fast time goes, it's already the last week week of the transfer when it feels like it started maybe a week ago! We as a mission have a goal of finding 1620 new amis before Elder and Sister Johnson (area seventies) come and tour our mission in Nov. So we have been trying to work as hard as we can, and talk to everyone possible! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Haha also I don't know if I have mentioned this but french people, LOVE, American cookies (because cookies don't really exist here.) I swear this week we have made so many cookies!! Haha it's literally the only way we were able to see one of our amis and some less actives, but I guess you do what you got ta do haha:) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have seen some really cool miracles this week. So two weeks ago we got a text from an ancien ami (old investigator) we told us that he had met with the missionaries a little before and has been reading a lot in the scriptures and wanted to see us again. We had a rdv with him and he is literally so cool, his name is Kevin and he was taught by the missionnaires before through email and <a href="http://mormon.org/">Mormon.org</a>. He has already read through the Livre de Mormon and a lot of D&C and Jesus the Christ! He was going to study to become a catholic priest but then started researching our church more. So now at this point he knows a lot about our church and he has read and prayed a lot trying to find an answer if our church is true. He said that if he receives an answer this church is true he would of course join our church. The rdv was really great and the spirit was really strong. We testified to Kevin about how sometimes to receive our answers we have to act, and trust in Heavenly Father. We invited Kevin to act and live like a Mormon would live and keep praying to receive a réponse. Well that's exactly what he did he came to church on Sunday and loved it (our members friended him so well) and he is happy and wants to see us again soon! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Speaking of faith, we were talking about it this week in district meeting and there was a thought I really liked, it went with this scripture in Ether 12: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">11 Wherefore, by faith was the law of Moses given. But in the gift of his Son hath God prepared a more excellent way; and it is by faith that it hath been fulfilled.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">12 For if there be no faith among the children of men God can do no miracle among them; wherefore, he showed not himself until after their faith.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love in the first verse where it says God has prepared a more excellent way, because faith is often trusting in Heavenly Father and trusting his way is better than ours. Faith is often having to ACT or keep walking even when life gets difficult. Faith is acting and working as if God's promises have come to pass, even if they haven't yet, but you continue forward anyway because you have hope that they will. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's what's been happening for me these past few weeks, our work totally slowed down but we tried to work our hardest anyway and trust that Heavenly Father had better things planned and I am now seeing those miracles come after we showed our faith. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another miracle on Sunday, this young girl named Marie came to church all by her self and as we started talking with her she told us that she had been living in Las Vegas for the past year and she had been staying with a host family who is Mormon. She went to church with them every week and loved it, but she only met the missionaries once. Well she loved church and wants to learn more, and she is coming with us to a members house tonight for FHE! She is so sweet and I am so excited and happy for her. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really do know and believe with my whole heart that God, our Heavenly Father, is a God of miracles and if we put our faith in him all of his promises will be fulfilled. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love you all so much, have a wonderful wonderful week! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Je vous aime </span><br />

Ha we were hoping with vacances ending we would start seeing our amis more... and we are still hoping that will start happening 😬 mais malgré tout we have actually had some really wonderful miracles this week and the work is starting to look up, which I know is all thanks to Heavenly Father. We have been praying a lot to try to find new amis and to know what Heavenly Father would have us do here in Toulouse and then we have been trying to work as hard as we can to accomplish His work. And let me tell you work and prayer really work;) honestly it's the only way to be a missionary.<br /><br />We had two exchanges this week with the Carcassonne and Montpellier sœurs and it was so fun! We honestly have such great missionaries in this mission. One cool miracle we saw is on tuesday I was on exchange with Soeur Kenyon and we talked to this woman on a bus named Audrey and she told us she was Catholic but noticed that there was differences in what the Bible taught v. what the Catholic Church taught. She had to leave quickly but I got her number and fixed a RDV for thursday. Well Thursday I was on exchanges again, this time with soeur Blackham, and Audrey came to our RDV and we had a really great first lesson teaching her the retab! She had some really good questions and has such a pure desire to follow God's will. She gladly accepted the Livre de Mormon and told us she would call us after she had read and prayed. She is so cool and I already love her a lot, the sad thing is we haven't been able to get in contact with her again so please pray for Audrey and that we can see her!<br /><br />We have also seen a lot of members and less active this week, and we were just running around being busy- but that's always the best:) And honestly the only the work really moves forward is members and I am so grateful for the amazing members we have here. Guys I seriously love Toulouse sooo much ❤️<br /><br />Okay here's the funny story of the week, so yesterday me and soeur Gowans were speed walking to church, because we were running a little late *hah comme dab* and then as I was walking my bag caught on a cars side mirror and as I walk I hear a loud noise and the mirror had pulled out of the car and was hanging by wires! Ahh it was crazy! Haha we weren't sure what to do but as we were walking back from church the car was still there so I wrote a little note and left it on the car with my number saying sorry that I might have broken his mirror. Well late that night we got a text and he told us that he just easily put the mirror back into the car and there was no problem- but he thanked us for leaving the little note and thanked us for our "démarche citoyenne" (meaning like civic duty) so that was sparky, and now haha I'm being a little more careful with my destructive missionary bag;<br /><br />Thanks for all your love and support, I'm so thankful to be here as a missionary and share this gospel which brings me more joy than anything else I have found in this world! Never forget how incredibly blessed we are with our knowledge of God's plan and never forget how much he and our savior love us!<br /><br />Je vous aime beaucoup<br /><br />ciao 👋 <br /><br />Soeur Soffe<div>

Week 63<span style="font-size: large;">Bonjour tout le monde!<br /><br />J'espère que vous avez passer une très bonne semaine!<br /><br />Haha literally this week went by in a blur. So yeah, I can't really remember what happened the beginning of the week! But on Friday we had a big tri-zone conference so we had lots of missionnaires that came in and that was a lot of fun- but ha with our little apartment we were a little squished but that just makes it more fun:) <br /><br />Conference was really good, we are talking a lot of course about how we can best use facebook. The APs gave us some really good insights about the safeguards we have in place. Then President Brown had all of us ZL's and STL's come and sit in front of everyone and we acted like a questions panel as the missionaries posed us questions about facebook. Ha well you know your girl already doesn't know like anything about Facebook. It was cool though because it became more of a discussion and i learned a lot! (Ha you guys I really feel so in over my head, but I am learning and understanding why this new tool is going to become so beneficial in our mission.) <br /><br />What Soeur Brown talked about really touched me- it was about giving this our very best. This is exactly what Heavenly Father deserves from each of his children, especially as we are in his work. I still have so much to work to do in this, but I want to try my best everyday to give my Heavenly Father every thing I have. <br /><br />So me and soeur Gowans were in charge of the food for all the missionnaires- the ZL's were nice and helped us but ha after conference we were just running around. It all worked out really well in the end. Then friday night we had a soirée familiale and we had lots of amis and members and it was poppin'. Haha after conference though me and soeur Gowans were so exhausted- ha we were so slap happy and then just crashed in bed. <br /><br />Saturday we had a super fun sportif because one of the Tahitian members taught us Tahitian dance- ia ora na! It was so much fun! After we were able to have interviews with President, and it was so good. The work is going good here, but lately its been really hard for us to see our amis and it feels like people are starting to drop a little. It helped me so much talking with president, and this past sunday as a mission we joined together in fasting and prayer for our people here. We all prayed together at 7 in the morning and the spirit was incredibly strong. I have such a testimony of fasting and prayer. I promise you all Heavenly Father is there and loves us so much! Also on Saturday the elders ami Blanca was baptized! She is so incredible and her faith is amazing- its been a privilege to know her and it was such a happy day!<br /><br />Je vous aime! Passez une bonne semaine!<br /><br />Soeur Soffe </span><div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Bonjour a tous</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">J'espère que vous avez passé une bonne semaine:)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So monday night we flew out to Lyon and on Tuesday had MLC. As always it was so good, and we have some very big changes in the mission and the biggest one is we are now on facebook! (Ps we can be friends with our family and friends at home, so that's why some of you have seen me- and you can be friends me with me!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The really cool thing about Facebook is that we can now really talk with our amis everyday, its going to be (and already has been) such a better way to talk with people and its awesome to connect our amis with members. Ha but I have to tell you, this facebook thing is a little scary for soeur soffe:) Since I've never had Facebook before, the other missionaries are lovingly calling me the grandma because I need help with basically everything about Facebook :) I'm lucky I have a really great and patient collègue. There is definitely a lot to learn (so any missionnaires or returned missionaries who used Facebook I would love any tips you have:) )</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We were also introduced in MLC, a replacement chapter for chap 8 of preach my gospel about planning. This new way of planning focuses on people and what they need and how through setting goals we can help them progress. The way we used to plan felt like we were just filling up the day- but now we are better following the spirit to find what people need individually. I think that's one of my favorite things about the gospel is how individual and personal it is. It's the same thing with sharing the gospel, sure with these new tools we can reach so many people at once, but people will always be converted to this gospel one by one and one heart at a time : )</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's been a good week, we've been busy and yay vacance is finally ending! We had a fun exchange with the Perpignan sœurs too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I hope you all have a wonderful week!</span></div>

Sorry I don't have a lot of time for emails today because we are flying into Lyon today for MLC tomorrow. <br /><br />We have had a really good first week together, I love Soeur Gowans and we work together really well. We have had some really cool little miracles this week, that have actually all been with transport contacting! <br /><br />On Thursday we went down to Béziers to pick up our titre de séjour (legality that lets me stay in France) and yay we are both legal! Coming home we took a big intercity train and ended up sitting next to this really cool man named Marc. He is retired and just finished hiking the alps for a month, and he was heading home to Bordeaux see his wife again(who usually hikes with him.) He was so nice and was showing us all of the pictures he had taken (I loved getting to see the mountains) He gave us some wild lavender he had picked and so I'm exchange we gave him a Temples and family brochure:) He wasn't super interested in the church, but he told us he would read the brochure and I know how much power there is in learning about the temple! <br /><br />On Friday we went out to pass some less actives, as we were going I talked to this really sweet lady who at the start of our conversation wasn't interested at all, but as we kept talking she became more nicer and you could see her heart soften as she and I opened up. As we got off the bus she asked me if I wanted to take her number and then when she gets back from vacance in September we could see her and talk:) <br /><br />We have been able to meet some other really incredible people this week, i think that's one of the things I love about missions is the amazing people that we get to meet and talk with each day. To be honest it is still scary for me to try and talk with strangers, but I'm growing to love it a lot more. It's a really incredible thing to see how different we all are, but to also feel of Heavenly Father's love for all of his children no matter where we are from or what language we speak. <br /><br />Last really cool miracle was on Friday as we were waiting to get on the bus, These two men came up to us and pointed to our plaques then at the sky and smiled and made a praying sign, we smiled and nodded. It turns out they were both deaf, and after one man typed on his phone asking us if we were TJ's (Jehovah's witnesses, soo many people here confus us for them) We explained that we weren't but then the bus came. As we got on, I went to the back of the bus where they were and handed them a pass along card. Somehow we were able to communicate, it was sad because they asked if at the church we have sign language- sadly no, but I showed them where the church website was. At the end they both had big smiles, one pointed to the picture of Jesus and made a heart sign and then signed thank you to me. It was just a really cool experience, and the love of Heavenly Father that I felt for them was so strong. <br /><br />I hope you all have a wonderful week, and remember how much Heavenly Father loves you and how much he loves all his children around you! Everyone has incredible stories , and I'm so thankful for all the people I've been able to learn from. <br /><br />Je vous aime beaucoup! <br /><br />Soeur Soffe <div>

<br />
So soeur tupou'ata is heading home today, and guys she has seriously like become one of my best friends- so yeah that was really sad to say goodbye.... but the good news is I am staying in Toulouse and I am training Soeur Gowan as a new STL!! I'm super excited because soeur gowans came into the mission with and she is so cute and so much fun! She is from Washington state. <br />
<br />
This past week we were running around like crazy seeing so many members! Everyone was able to see soeur tupou'ata before she leaves, and it was really great for me to get to know a lot of them better! One of my favorite days was when one of the cutest JAs (young adults) , whose name is utile, took us to this quiet little church in the county and we had a really spiritual pensée talking about missions (her papers are in!) and then we had a picnic in this beautiful park that overlooked the country. Et ça ma fait du bien (that was good for me) because it has been sooo long since I've been in nature or the mountains and I needed it:) I have loved this week being able to be with members because I really have such a testimony that member missionary work is the only really smart way to do the lords work! As members invite their friends to be taught, they are so much more open and willing to listen to the gospel and having a friend in the church really can make all the difference. I have gained such a testimony of this on my mission, and I feel so blessed to be here in the capitole ward because the members really are incredible. So I invite you all this week to pray and think about how you can be a better missionary. I promise you, you have no idea what kind of impact you can have:) <br />
<br />
Okay here's the funny story for this week: <br />
<br />
So we have been teaching a Nigerian ami named Alex, and he loves coming to church and has been progressing really well. (Also ha all of the Nigerians have problems with my name so they call me Sophia- ha soeur tupou'ata called me Soeur Sophia) Anyways I called Alex last night because he hadn't come to church. So Alex is like 40, but he really wants to get married, and at the end of the phone call he tells me he has feelings for me- but he understands that I am a missionary now, but he wants to keep in contact when I'm home🤦🏼♀️ ohh my goodness it was bad haha. So we are going to pass him over to the elders but it was pretty funny. Haha I promise you though, he understands our purpose as missionaries and he knows why I'm here- but I think it'll be best for elders to teach him:) <br />
<br />
Have a great week everyone!!<br />
<br />
Je vous aime!! <br />

<br />
J'espère que vous avez passé une tres bonne semaine! It's been a good week here, so right now we are in the middle of vacance (holiday.) and yeah let me tell ya, vacance in france is a little different than home. Most people have about a month off for vacance, and they travel or just chill chez-eux, but its like so hard to see anyone. So it's been hard to see a lot of our amis and some people have been dropping- but if there is anything I have learned on my mission its that opposition always brings miracles:)<br />
<br />
On tuesday the Carcassonne sœurs came in for an exchange, and it was a lot of fun! I was able to go with Soeur Chidester who is a bleue and she is so cute. She actually went to SUU before her mission and she is a ballet dancer who took the same classes I did and she was in the same singles ward as me! (Ha sadly she went a year after me, when I was already out, so we never met.) But we had a lot of fun, and even though she doesn't speak a lot of french yet- she did so well and I was so proud of her! We were able to see an ami, who we have been trying for weeks to see and we had a really good lesson! I had never met this ami before, her name is Christine, but when we met with her she had already read half of the livre de mormon, and she wants to finish it! The thing is she hadn't prayed about it yet, so we shared how we knew the book is true and how we had received a witnesses of its truthfullness. She is really open and has a lot of potential:) <br />
<br />
On friday we had a soirée familiale for our amis and members, we made a bunch of popcorn (shout out to best parents ever for the popcorn maker;) ) and we watched rencontre avec les mormons (meet the mormons) and it was so successful. All three équipes of missionnaires had some amis come, and a lot of members! Everyone loved it:)<br />
<br />
So this is something that I've been thinking and studying a lot about lately, and its our divine potential. In thinking about our potential, how often do we put limits on what we are able to do? We always say that, oh I'm just not good enough, I can't do that, I'm not ready. We cap our limits, which inhibits our progression. However this is exactly opposite to what Heavenly Father's plan is for us, he wants us to change and grow. God's plan for us is to become like him, and the potential we have inside of us is divine. In romans 8:16-17 it says, " The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together."<br />
<br />
We can one day become gods ourselves, and if we believe that Heavenly Father can accomplish anything that means that we can also achieve amazing things because of what we have the potential TO BECOME. <br />
<br />
But how do we achieve these amazing works, when we are all imperfect beings with completely impeding weaknesses. Our savior; he is, as always, the answer. The atonement that he accomplished is what allows us to progress. The atonement is the catalyst for change. This is because as we repent, we change becoming more like our savior (and Heavenly Father- as we draw close to one we draw close to them both ) The power of the atonement allows us to begin to achieve our potential, allowing us to move mountains as we overcome the trials and weaknesses of this life. <br />
<br />
So please don't put limits on yourself for what you can do, Heavenly Father knows who he wants you to become, and no it will not be easy- in fact it will be painful and hard- but I promise you it does bring the most joy and in the end is easier! Trust that God us our father, and we are his beloved children, and that he has a plan!<br />
<br />
Haha sorry for who lengthy that was, but I can't really express how grateful I am to bring this knowledge to people- that they have a Heavenly father who loves them, and that he has a plan for them. Guys being a missionary is the greatest, yeah it's hard but its so worth it!<br />
<br />
Je vous aime beaucoup! <br />
<br />
Passez une bonne semaine:)<br />

To start off this week we had a really great RDV with our new ami named Alex, he is the one who came to church last week and loved it! We taught him the retab and he had a lot of really good questions, and was so excited about the BOM. My favorite was that near the end we told him that if he has any questions he can always ask, and we will do our best to answer us. (He is really believing in the Bible) and tells ok I will, but I don't think I need to because *holding up the Book of Mormon* I can find all the answers in here. I just know how true that is, any questions our answers we have can always be find in the Book of Mormon. I have seen it so many times over my mission, that it is our key to lasting to conversion. If any of you feel like your testimony might not be as strong as you would like, or even if you just feel sad and alone- LISEZ LE LIVRE DE MORMON (read the Book of Mormon!!:) ) I promise you that the spirit will come stronger into your life, you will find answers to your questions, and you will better feel gods love! <br /><br />Then on Wednesday it was zone Conference, so we are actually the only sisters in our zone (the sœurs we are over, are in the Montpellier zone.) However me and soeur tupou'ata have succeeded in becoming the cool STL's (because we also decided to match for conference, because all the elders match each other so we had to too;) ) in the bro-zone... well at least we think we did:) Conference was really good, we talked a lot about safeguards for technology- and how we can create plans to protect ourselves while we are online and using our tablets. Me and soeur tupou'ata presented about how this safeguards we have right now can also be used after the mission, and the habits we create now can benefit us throughout our lives! President and Soeur Brown taught us about Christ's love and his atonement and how we can share his light with so many more people with these new tools! And then of course soeur brown had a fun game for us to play, and us, the zone leaders, and president and soeur brown were the evil influences who launched water ballons at the missionaries who caught them in towels and then threw them back at us 😂 it was fun:)<br /><br />We have had some other good, and also really hard lessons. We had to drop one of our amis, because she isn't willing to act or progress. It was really sad and hard to explain this to her, but we did it as lovingly as we could and the spirit was really strong. BUT onto better news another one of our amis accepted a date to baptism, ha she is sadly moving into the other ward, mais quand même I'm really happy for her:)<br /><br />Everything else has been so good, i love my comp so much ha we laugh all the time and it's so fun. I'm just so thankful to be a missionary and to be here in this amazing ville and paroisse! I just love being a missionary and I love my savior and his gospel so much!<br /><br />Passez une très bonne semaine!<br /><br />Je vous aime beaucoup <br /><br />Soeur Soffe<div>

It has been so good here, i just love Toulouse so much! The members are so incredible and love to work with us. We were able to see a lot of members this week and share a pensée with them that our whole mission is doing. It's where we talk about missionary work (1 Nephi 8:12 folks the reason we share the gospel:) ) and then invite them to share something with a friend who needs it on Facebook (because what a good way to share the gospel) The members love it and they are learning another way they can be even better missionnaires:) <br /><br />We had two exchanges this week with Montpellier and Perpignan. Exchanges are so fun and I love seeing our sœurs but they can be a little stressful. The way exchanges work in our mission is that the equipe of sœurs comes into our sector, so we have two days to plan and since we had two in a week- it was a little crazy but we got so much done which was awesome! We also have incredible sœurs too:) <br /><br />We were able to have a really good lesson with one of our Ami's names Olivia. She has two little kids and has known the missionnaires for a few months but is just really busy. Now because it's vacance she has more time to see us, so we were able to see her with one of the incredible JAs from our ward. We taught the whole retab, and she had lots of good questions which us and Lydie (JA member) were able to answer. It was interesting because as we were teaching the lesson you could see her feeling the spirit, and she is very set in her own ways and you could see that she didn't necessarily want to believe it was true, however the spirit worked on her heart, and we watched it soften throughout the time we were there and she agreed to read the Book of Mormon and sincerely pray and ask if our message is true! <br /><br />Yesterday we had some incredible miracles too, Soeur tupou'ata had the thought to contact an old ami and invite him to church, and he said he would come we just had to go and meet him at Jeanne d'arc (bus stop.) Ha it was good he wanted to go there because we ended up seeing so many people! People contacted us who needed help getting around, and then some students from BYU saw us and we were able to help them get to church. We then ran into some recent converts and amis from Nigeria who were with their friends and they all came to church with us, and our ami who also moved here from Nigeria came as well! The bus was late, so sadly we were a little late to church but we had so many people there! And our new ami, named Alex loved church. He said that everyone was so friendly to him, and though he hasn't been taught much yet he wants to get baptized! Such a miracle! <br /><br />Thanks for your love support and prayers, it helps more than you know:) <br /><br />Love you all so much!! <br /><br />Soeur Soffe <div>

It was a lot of fun to see everyone again, yay for seeing friends:) at MLC we started talking about the light of Christ's gospel and how we are the lantern holders who get to shine this light to the people in France. The hard thing is how do we shine this light to everyone, everyone needs this gospel but it's too big for just us missionnaires and members to do. Well now all missions who have iPads are going to be getting Facebook... what!? Ha I think when president announced that we all just about fell out of our chairs. So confession time Soeur Soffe has never had a Facebook and starting in august we will begin to do online proselyting. Ha I'm scared because I have no idea how to use social media, but I know by working with our members this is going to allow us to find so many more people who are prepared. <br /><br />We got backend got back to work:) we had a really cool rdv with an ami who has been one of those forever amis. She is super cute and from Australia and she has a really strong testimony of the BOM, however she has a lot of soucis that have kept her from living the gospel. But as we talked and testified to her, she choose a date as a goal for her to be baptized, ha for her it is just a goal but it's a sign she could really progress. So keep Maria in your prayers:) <br /><br />This week, something that has really stood out to me is our testimonies.This morning as we were walking to get courses a TJ (jehovahs witness- they are so many here) stopped us and tried to Bible bash a little. Well we didn't Bible bash, but we were able to answer his questions with courtise. We have a blessing that elder christofferson gave to our mission over a year ago that says when we teach with a convincing power people will not be able to deny our words- they won't believe it but they won't be able to deny it. I felt that power as we talked to this man, specifically as we testified. Our testimonies are something no-one can take away from us and there is power each time a testimony is born.<br /><br />I know this church is true and I know it with all that I am, the only way to true happiness is through our savior Jesus Christ. He has given us the way and the light and all we have to do is follow him! <br /><br />Je vous aime <br /><br />Soeur Soffe <br /><br />Also shout out to my brother who is leaving to the MTC this week! Taylor I'm so excited for you!! <div class="x_p1" style="color: #454545; font-family: '.SF UI Text'; font-size: 17px; line-height: normal;">

I'm oh so blessed to be here! To explain the title that is a name for Toulouse because a lot of the buildings are made out of this light red brick- It's so pretty! <br /><br />We have been doing a lot this week, the beginning of the week we were passing by a lot of people and checking addresses- which is actually super helpful for me to try to figure my way around. Toulouse isn't as big as Lyon mais quand même it's still big:) We do a lot of service in Toulouse also, which I love because that's how people feel our love and know they can trust us- members and amis! <br /><br />We were able to meet some really cute less active, the family bonbon who is working toward getting sealed in the temple and we also met Soeur berengere, who is super funny and cute and she took us out for ice cream!! (What was funny was the day before she tombez-vous'd us and we randomly met a couple from Utah on vacation who gave us money to go get ice cream- so yeah tender mercies this week in ice cream:) and luckily because whew it is hot!!:) )<br /><br /> On Friday we saw one of our amis, marie- josette who is so cute and sweet. It's sad because she has been having a hard time with her friends, but we were able to teach about forgiveness and Christ's love and we were able or refix her baptismal date:) <br /><br /> Okay onto Sunday, our ward is literally huge!! The biggest ward I've seen yet, and I love them so much. Everyone was so welcome and would come and say hi and ask my name (as a missionary when ward members know your last name, it's so sparky!) and what I love is that they are so diverse but like a huge family. So our évêque(bishop) is really good, but man he is intense and a little nuts (but in a good way and really funny) But before church he told me that my testimony in front of the ward had to be 4 min long and he was expecting the audience in tears because the spirit was so strong... ha pressure... but after I got the thumbs up and he told me it was perfect, whew😅<br /><br /> Something I've been thinking about a lot this past few weeks has been weaknesses. Because let me tell you I am someone who is no where close to perfect (and personne except our savior is) Sometimes I think we can get caught up though in the imperfections. I have already seen so much on my mission that the lord can change our weaknesses into strengths (see ether 12:27) But I have felt that I just have too many, well the other day as I was praying I had this thought come into my head "j'accepte mes faiblesses, mais je ne suis pas contente de les rester avec" (i accept my weakness, but I am not happy to stay with them) We all have imperfections, and we have to understand that- however we also have to understand that our Heavenly Father loves us with our weaknesses because it's through them that we improve and become better. I have seen it on my mission so much, and if you need an example look to me- it's only because of him that I am able to be here and help others the way I have. <br /><br />I am so thankful for my savior and for his Atonement that allows me to change, and I am thankful for my weaknesses because they are how I will grow:) <br /><br />Je vous aime beaucoup!! Et merci pour tout:) <br /><br />Soeur Soffe <div>

Week 54<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Bonjour à tous! <br />
<br />
So to start off we got our transfer calls this Friday, and I am now in Toulouse with Sœur Tupou'ata!! She is from California and she used to be in my zone in Lyon so I know her a little. She is so awesome and I already love Toulouse and have heard so many good things and I'm finally in the south:) it was really hard to leave everyone in Lyon yesterday oh la la, that's what I don't like about being a missionary is saying goodbye. And ohh it was sad saying goodbye to my amis et members who I love so much, and of course my amazing comp who I love! But luckily I'll be back soon for MLC;) <br />
<br />
Well we had a crazy last week, Monday was one of my favorite p-days! It was president's p-day and we had a barbecue to celebrate the Fourth of July and then some of the Ecully missionnaires came running out with water ballons- Lyon grabbed their water guns and all out war happened! Ha everyone was dripping wet and it was so fun!! Work hard play hard, one of the secrets of missionary work;) <br />
<br />
Mardi et mercredi i actually went with some other missionaries all the way to Béziers for our legality- yay! I'm legal in France:) <br />
<br />
Then Thursday Jo actually came to Lyon!! Ohh my goodness it was so so good to see her again! We were able to go to lunch, and I really can't explain how much I love her (she was my recent convert in Annemasse) she is doing so well, and even though her situation is really hard (ask me her story one day- she is my example) but she still has so much faith and she says that no matter what happens she knows that it's god plan and he knows best. She is even helping the sisters in Annemasse teach an ami right now who is Chinese, and she told me she is trying to teach what I taught her because this gospel brings her so much happiness that she has to share it!! That is the reason I do what I do!! <br />
<br />
The weekend we were visiting lots of amis and saying goodbye, ahh I love them so much and since I don't have lots of time I'll attaché some pics. But really guys we have a part of our missionary purpose in our mission we say every morning that says "love is the key" and I just testify to how true that is!! My mission scripture is 2 Nephi 31:20 (look it up its worth it) because gods love is why we are all here, love is how this work progresses, and love is the ONLY way we can bring people to their savior! <br />
<br />
Love you all! <br />
<br />
Je vous aime tous!! <br />
<br />
Soeur Soffe <br />

She was baptized!! Week 53Bonjour à tous! <br /><br />I hope you all have had a good week, I don't have a lot of time to write today so I will share the incredible day we had Saturday!! It was Jacqueline's baptism!! Ohh you guys I know she is one of the reasons I was called to Lyon and it was so incredible to be able to be there when she was baptized. She came early and frère paran (our DMP) and the elders were able to give her a blessing (reminder she has a legit phobia of water) but she is so cute and said she felt so much better after the blessing. Quite a few people came to her baptism which was great. Two members gave really great talk and then me and the other sœurs sang je sais qu'il vit mon rédempteur. Jacquline loves it when we sing and I looked at her and she had a smile on her face and her eyes were closed it was a really special moment. Then her baptism, ha guys literally the most stressful baptism of my life. So she had chosen frère paran to baptise her, and I love frère Paran he is awesome but he is a little older and small, so we were a little worried. Jacquline had told us that she would only be baptized one time, like if a mistake was made she wouldn't do it again she was getting out of the water. I just want to point out how courageous Jacquline is because as she got into the water she was just trembling but she has such a beautiful faith and trust, she kept walking. Cute frère paran was so sweet with her, but as he said the ordonnance of the baptism he forgot to say in the name of the father son and Holy Ghost, he went to lower her in the water and Sr Crispi and his wife yell out NO!! Haha luckily he stopped and then everything was down correctly and she was baptized! Ha they both almost fell as he brought her out of the water *i almost jumped in the font* but everything was okay, Heavenly Father blessed him with strength:) and she was baptized!! <br /><br />I am so proud of her and the decision she made to be baptized, I can't imagine how difficult it was for her. However she trusted in god and "feared God more than man" and now she is on the pathway home to him.She was glowing after she was confirmed the next day, and I loved how happy the ward was for her. <br /><br />Je vous aime tous!! <br /><br />Soeur Soffe <br /><br /><br />Haha I promise you that Jacquline really is a lovely person, ha but she wouldn't smile for the pictures😅<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I hope you had a wonderful week! This was busy but wonderful! We have had some really great lessons with Tiawo, one of our engagés. One of the families in our ward- the blackburns invited Tiawo and Joy over for a soirée familial. Ha we were a little late because Tiawo came late but it was really good, and Tiawo clicked with them really well and know she is friends with them:) Then we had a wonderful lesson about the retab with her on Saturday ha again; but she is totally understanding and is so excited for her baptism on the first on July 1. It has honestly been really incredible to watch her progression and how much she has changed. She has become so much more engaged, and now really has the desire to follow Christ. That is one of the most incredible blessings of a mission is to be able to see people change because they have started to follow their savior. <br />
<br />
On thursday I had a fun exchange with Sr Rutter, she is a wonderful missionary and we always have fun together. We ended up having to leave district meeting early, because one of our sisters has been having kidney stones (no fun at all) so we went with them to the hospital, but she is doing a lot better now. We had a wonderful lessons with Jacquline- who on Friday passed her baptismal interview! She is so excited for her baptism and she is so ready and I feel so grateful to have been able to teach her- she really is my family now:) Anyway thursday night the cute geddes couple invited us and the other missionaries over for dinner, ohh so much fun! They made a Hawaiian feast and have i mentioned how much I love my mission family! <br />
<br />
Sunday we had a really amazing experience. So Arina and Seda are ancien amis who I had meet a few times, they are refugees from Russia and are so incredible and have been taught by missionaries for a long time. Well these past two transfers I have been trying to get a hold of them and they would never answer. Well our DMP saw them and with the Elders gave Seda (the daughter) a blessing for her health. Later that week we called her and she said our number got deleted and she was so happy that we called. We had a really good RDV with them on friday night and it went so well. Then on sunday night we were doing our AAA hour and Arina randomly called and asked if she could see us that night, um bien sûre:) So we had another really good RDV, we didn't have a lot of time but we ended up talking about how they meet the missionaries and come to find out Arina has a beautiful testimony of the Book of Mormon and knows the church is true, and has seen ways the LDM has blessed her life. It was such a testimony to me of how important the BOM is in conversion, honestly it is key. If the BOM is true that means that everything in the gospel is true, and I know that the best way any of us can know of the truthful of this church is to read the book that is the clef to our testimony. So Arian has had baptismal dates in the past but she wants them to wait to be baptized when her situation is more stable. Me and soeur Crispi testified to her that the thing that can bring the most blessing and peace in her life is baptism. She listened and seemed to agree and accepted a soft invite to pray about her baptism. It was one of those moments where we were complete guided the spirit and it was really incredible! <br />
<br />
This email was a little all over the place, but wow I am just so thankful to be a missionary in this amazing country that has my heart! There is nothing better than being in the work of the Savior and I thank him every day for everyday!<br />
<br />
Je vous aime tous! <br />
