Il Faut Profiter! (Week #3 Transfer #7)

Salut! If you want to make a French person happy just tell them that and they'll be like "Whoa!  They know how to say hi like that!"  It's a friendlier hello anyways.

This week was fun, spring started finally and every day has been beautiful with the sun out and everything all green and blossoming, and has been an even 70-80 degrees each day. Perfect weather really, makes it so nice to spend time out all day. We visited a beautiful  town called Oraison and meet a member from Greece who lives there and can't make it to church because of work;  anyway, it was a good time with him and we even did a tiny bit of porting in the spare time before the rendezvous and found a man who was interested! Same name as our member there too haha, both George. Just the version for their country (Giorgos and Georges).  :)

I later got to do my first exchange in Aix, that was fun, beautiful city and it was fun to spend some time with Elder Szutch. We also had district meeting  which included elder Strong's biscuits and gravy! So good, I ate like 8 or something, me and Elder Szutch were real tired beginning our exchange after that meal haha. Biscuits strait from a Kentucky man are delicious, thank you elder strong once again! Haha I was actually looking forward to those biscuits all week, we have them every few weeks. So a good week! Got to see Patrick too! He's doing so awesome, he's running again and getting ready for competitions and he's making a ton of progress in the gospel and getting towards baptism, so cool!  Big miracle with him this week in his progress.  I just wanted to let you all know I love you and wish you to have the best week!


 We studied a scripture this week, 2 Nephi 2:25 which states: 

"25 Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy." 

I know that this life is meant to enjoy in the best ways possible, so in this spring season go Profitez du soleil!! (take advantage of the sunshine!) and have an awesome springy week, make sure you go out and take advantage of the sunny days! In his life we have too little time not to enjoy every minute of it, il faut Profiter (we gotta profit/take advantage of what we got!) Make every day good and spend it with family and friends in good wholesome fun, and when it's sunny go take advantage of the sun! Fun is super important!  So I invite you all to go have a fun week :)

Avec beaucoup d'amour
Elder Laney
