Staying in LaMoyne

It seems like every week there is another person that I need to write and just having this hour to do so takes a lot of pulling on those 98 words per minute I had in 7th grade. Ya I am still pretty proud of that and have literally no idea how I managed to do so. Maybe it was because I didn't really have to think about the things I would actually write. Oh before I forget, we received transfer calls and with it the news that I and Soeur Blanc will be staying in Lemoyne for the next 6 weeks at least. *and there was much rejoicing*

Well anyways this weeks addition to the Canadian menu. Maple Leaf cookies. They are at the level of Oreos. Aka a delicious hard cookie sandwich with maple frosting in the middle. I can already feel myself loving maple syrup and am currently debating if I should let my growing instinct to say  "eh!" to finally come out. After all Preach My Gospel advises us to embrace the culture.

This week was amazing! We were able to organize a mini mission with a wonderful sister in the ward by the name of Sister Alvarenga. It was her who introduced us to the magical cookies afore mentioned. We became quick friends. She is just about to finish her missionary papers which is wonderful!  But she pointed something out at the end of the three day mini mission that she understood how the best missionaries are members. And its true. Our temporary companion helped us so much. Her testimony of how the gospel had blessed her opened up so many of our investigators into understanding more of what the gospel can do.

Its a simple truth that missionaries need members. It has also been a subject I have written so much about but it is a truth nonetheless and therefore should be shared. Please talk with the missionaries. Ask if there is anything you can help with. Or even better invite friends to meet with them. Ask them to help you practice to invite your friends. Ask them to help serve a friend who needs a driveway shoveled. you won't regret it in the long run. Just ask the missionaries.

I love you all! Have a wonderful week!
