August 6, 2018

Another great week all the way over here in Nantes. I try to cherish every moment here, every lesson, every french phrase, every baguette. What a blessing it has been to be here! 

We were able to have some really really good lessons this week. We taught two people about the restoration one day and each one came out with the understanding that there is one way back to God and they have to discover and pray for themselves if this is it! One was named Antoine who was an old investigator from a few years ago. He testified of the peace and joy he felt in the past with the missionaries and was so grateful that we came again. The other one was Papis, who we met on the tram a few months ago. He does want to discover the truth but he has a hard time actually reading the Book of Mormon. He said he would pray about baptism though! 

We also saw the family Giraud last week and I ate snails for the first time! They were actually really good haha a lot smaller than I imagined so it was not too much squishy to eat. They were in a really good basil tomato sauce. 

We also had a family home evening with a few members, we had invited a few investigators but they cancelled at the last minute. The members were Spanish speaking and one doesn't speak any french so the spiritual thought was in Spanish by one of the elders who took Spanish in high school. We each learned a phrase and testified afterwards, I testified that I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior! 

Between my companions Soeur Hunt would win a joke contest, she says lots of funny things. It's almost been a year since she came to Nancy with me for the first time!

Last Monday we went to the art museum here and it was super cool! So many cool paintings and some cool modern art things. Today we are going to visit the castle and hopefully go into the museum there, we aren't sure if it is open on Mondays.

I love being able to testify of the restored gospel every single day. Have a great week!
Love,
Sœur Giles
