Week 34 | Pau, France



the elders in our district
THis pday we went to the Famille Bonet's for the morning where we celebrated a spanish holliday, had killer hot chocolate, watched The Otherwise Man and toured Oloron(the prettiest ville ever!)
Bonjour! I am happy to hear everyone is doing good!
 
We had a lot of fun this week. A member invited us over for New Years day to lunch. They are fron Congo and 4 of the 8 adult kids were there. We had so much fun eating delicious african food! I took a bite of some meat dish and there was a bullet in it haha, they all laugh and just told me that must mean it is really fresh! I was dying. We got talking and ended up havinbg a really sweet lesson with one of our members sons who is like 45 and has 5 kids (they dont live here, he was just in Pau for the holidays) and we got to answer a lot of his questions concerning the church and His sister got to bear testimony to him. It is expereinces like that, that I live for! This past sunday we taught the relief society (when my blue prayed for them she prayed to please bless the societe de sucre, instead of societe de secour, so she prayed to bless the society of sugar haha, it was reallll good. I love training!) Anyhow the bishopric has asked the missionnaries to teach the first Sunday every month to help the members share the gospel with their friends. Soeur Bagley and I had the lesson kind of planned out, but half way through we got the impression to take it another route, it ended up turning into a really good discussion and we helped the members come up with ways they could keep the spirit in situations when people are questioning them, instead of getting defensive. We have great members here in Pau and i am so excited for them to see the blessings sharing the gospel!
 I love you all, thanks for all you do!!
Love Soeur Kupfer
