Wahoo! What a week! Actually... I don't really remember what happened this week. All the days run together, but I know it's been good. With the beginning of the transfer we got some new missionaries here! And one of them is new, a bleu, like me :) . So we got two newbies here tacking Grenoble. Well the big highlight of the week was Le Pâque! (Easter) Which meant sharing le Prince de la Paix (Prince of Peace) video with everyone we saw, and walking past all the chocolate in the grocery store :(. But we got a lot of people at church which is awesome! To start off the holiday we got up early and picked up an Ami, A..., and his friend. Then we picked up another recent convert, Sœur E.... She is funny and I don't know how else to describe it. But she does scare me a little, haha. I just get nervous about her bisous, (kisses) she really plants one on ya. Anyways, she ended up inviting us to have lunch with her. She was so excited to have us over. She got all her nice dishes out and her fancy forks and knives. Then she shows us this chicken. It looks harmless, but she didn't really cook it. She put it in a pot and cooked it on the stove until it was warm. Sœur Calderwood and I just looked at each other like, "oh no". So she starts to cut this raw chicken in front of us, and she is trying to cut the bone of the chicken. But it's a bone, so she can't. So she just ended up ripping it for us. Haha Sœur Calderwood and I did our best to eat it. Haha, but I promise it was nice. She is so nice, I just can't understand her french sadly. So we did a lot of companion tacking with the Easter video. It actually went really well. There was this one girl that we decided to share it with, and after watching it she just told us how much she needed that message. She told us how she believes in Jesus Christ and all this amazing stuff, but she didn't want to take the lessons. Even though she didn't I am so glad that we were able to share it with her. Not everyone will except our message, but we want people to be better than they were before we talked to them. As missionaries we are representatives of Jesus Christ, we need to represent Him in everything we do. It can be hard to always think of it in the big picture, but I can't forget it! France has been great! It's starting to get greener here which is awesome!! And sadly, no one is in Grenoble. There is this big holiday so all the trams come like every 40 minutes and all the stores are closed. Hopefully we will be able to find people to talk to this week! -Sœur Glazier M...-L...'s baptism last week. I promise, I am wearing my name badge! Park by our house.
