Thanksgiving Bowl

Hey everyone!

This week was good as usual. I started the week of with an exchange with Elder Lee who is Tahitian. It is fun to talk to him about his home, it makes me want to go to Tahiti way bad--it sounds like paradise. Wednesday we spent the night in Metz and had a BBQ with the Elders there then the next day went to Strasbourg for the Turkey Bowl. Each companionship in the mission brought something for our Thanksgiving dinner and then we played football for about an hour and a half. It was a nice relaxing day and it was fun to see everyone and play football together. Afterward, we had a couple hours before our train so we got to walk around Strasbourg which is a way cool city near Germany. We had fun looking around and now I hope I serve there someday.

Last week we had a pretty good week. We went and visited a partial family and had a really good lesson with the husband who is not a member. The last missionaries that taught him really pushed him to get baptized and he had two baptism interviews that he did pass and so we have to be really careful with him cause he gets tense if you talk too much about baptism. I am excited to work with him though, he is cool and I think if we can help him to get a testimony of the Book of Mormon that he will be ready.

We have also been teaching all of our other people. We have one guy who I think will get baptized this coming transfer. He is really good and loves coming to church.
Other than that things have been the same old same old. This week is the last week of transfers so everybody is getting their predictions ready. I am hoping to stay in Luxembourg for at least one more transfer.

One of the highlights of my week was getting a package with Miller Motorsports Chapstick and decals. So here goes my shout out to Jason Shelley, thanks man you are the best, despite what everyone says about you at the track haha.

This week I have another exchange which will be good. It always makes the week go by super quick. We also found a Christmas tree in the apartment so we might set that up.
Hope you all are doing great.
