Bonjour!!

This is kind of going to be a little bit shorter this week but I want to tell a quick funny story then a cool one!!
We work alot trying to reactive less active members and so this week we were at an older womans house who hasnt been coming to church. She is so so sweet and whenever she does come I make it a point to sit be here in relief society and make her feel welcome. This visit was a little sickening though, she has two little furry dogs and throughout the entire spiritual message and while we were talking she kept lifting up the dogs and kissing there stomachs and rubbing her face in their fur haha, i was about to die!!! I embowed Soeur Cedrhe and said, oh no, she is going to want to "beez" us when we leave!! ANd the old women here really beez. So sure enough we are getting ready to leave and she beezed us, after kissing her dogs stomachs like 30 times. Thought you might enjoy that!

On the bright side this week we found a new Ami! His name is Abdou and he is so wonderful! Again he is from Africa, but he speaks great French. We had our second rendevous with him this week and he had already read a bunch of the BOM and had so many good, solid questions about it. We came to the lesson prepared with a scripture to share with him to help him better understand the relationship between the Bible and the BOM, but he asked a question that took the discusion in a different direction. I looked down and the verse after what we thought he would need to know was the exact answer to his question, even with some of the same words he had used in his question, so we had him read it and he was a little amazed. The spirit definitely had a hand in this lesson, it was not us by any means. I am so grateful for the scriptures, I was greatful for them before the mission, but now its like im reading them for the first time all over again and I love them so much. I know that the Boof Of Mormon is the word of God and contains the fullness of the everlasting Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am so greatful to be a missionary and get to share this peace and happiness that can be found only through the Gospel of Jesus Christ ever single day! I love you all, you are in my prayers! Thank you for all you do for me!

 Love Soeur Kupfer!
