This week was pretty good! One of our investigators is still preparing steadfastly to be baptized. It's pretty much certain at this point. I love him so much, he's awesome. Although, I'm not sure that I will still be here for his baptism, it is possible that I get transferred before I get the chance to see that. He asked Elder Nilsson to baptize him, Elder Nilsson is a smaller man and the investigator is pretty big, so this will be interesting for sure.
Another investigator is also is doing good, she read the assignment we gave her! Yay! And she also read the chapter after that without us asking her to! That's awesome, she has been growing and progressing pretty well, it's tough to get a hold of her sometimes, but we keep trying.
We had a birthday party for Elder Nilsson! We wanted to go out and eat, but that got complicated really fast because apparently 6pm is way too early for French restaurants to be serving anything else other than drinks. So we just got some kebabs and then some ice cream. We put candles in the ice cream and I sung happy birthday to him. It was fun. Small, but fun.
Tomorrow we get to go a city called Alençon with the district because there used to be elders there and now there aren't. President told us to go over there as a district to clean the old apartment, which apparently is in pretty bad condition. But it will be a nice way to get out of our normal every day routine and do something different.
It has rained here, and I love it. Because the heat tends to make missionary work harder than it needs to be.
I have some pictures! One of me with a giant pistol meant for dismounting cavalry. Elder Nilssons birthday ice cream. And I learned how to poach eggs! Delicious!
Love,
Elder Payne
