Hello!
Well, it's been another dandy week up here in the North. It turned out a lot differently than we expected. Going into the week we had lots of rendezvous fixed, and by the end of the week, lost all of them fell through. A little disappointing, but what can we do?
A couple days ago our car nearly broke down on us as we were driving down the highway. The engine was burning out really bad, so we took it to the shop today to get it fixed and we'll hopefully get it back tomorrow. In the meantime we're walking everywhere, just like the good ol' days.
We were able to teach a new person, Annie, she's a real believing Catholic who loves everything related to Christ. We taught some of Le Rétablissement and she really loved it. When we gave her the Book of Mormon, she began to read it immediately and marveled at the book. It's comforting to know that there are people out here who do accept it fully. We're meeting with her again this upcoming week. We're looking forward to see her progress in the gospel.

Our boy, Pierre
is still in a state of doubt. The man loves doubting. Which will ultimately be
the barrier of his progress. We consider him as a friend as well as
an ami, but boy needs to commit.
Yesterday we had
a killer 3 hours of church. It was Branch Conference and the theme was temple
attendance. Everyone here is so excited for the dedication of the temple in
Paris. The members in this area in particular are very committed to attend the
temple, in fact. There are more Frenchies that go to the London Temple than
actual British members, go figure! Our whole mission will go in a private tour
on April 20-21 before the public open house. Qué Momento!!
I hope y'all
have a very excellent week.
À bientôt,
Elder Aburto
