It has been a week since I first got to Lyon and I am so amazed at how beautiful it is here. I love my area so much! We have part of the city and then we have a lot of the country side which is one of my favorite parts! Not only is the area beautiful, but the people here are so amazing. This week I went knocking on doors to actual homes! It was so cool! And it was raining and there was a beautiful view of the city, so we had to take a picture or two. We also went to try to find some referrals that we had received. We weren't able to find them, but we got to knock on some more doors! My first Sunday here in Val de Saône was so good! I got to bear my testimony, and as I looked out at all the people in the ward, I felt so blessed to be here and to get to know them. The members here are so kind. I can't wait to be able to get to know all of them! There is a less active here who loves the missionaries. He loves us so much he calls us everyday and always wants us to visit him. We can't always go, but when we do he is always feeding us. It is so funny at church because he will just follow the elders around almost everywhere they go. There is another member who was recently reactivated who is old but she seems so young. We will be going to her house this week and she is going to teach us something like karate, which will be really fun. We went to visit a member this week named H.... She was really nice and she happened to make us dinner. But she made us fish, and I don't like fish, but I was going to eat it anyways. But when I saw it, it still had its scales and everything. I was still determined to eat, because who knows, maybe I will end up liking it. So I took a bite and it wasn't too bad as long as I didn't think about it. So I continued to eat until a bit something's hard. That was when I realized I had actually eaten the bone of the fish. I didn't know what to do because I didn't want to just spit it all out on my plate in front of the member. So I just sat there for a while trying to figure out what to do. Luckily she eventually left and I just emptied it all out. From that experience I realized that I actually don't like fish and I really hope no one feeds it to us again... but that probably won't happen. To end the great week off, we spent the day with the STLS (Sister Training Leaders) in Lyon!
