This week was a fun one, went by pretty fast. We got to do service for Jean-Louis twice at the beginning of the week which was fun, he needed help with putting away wood and then distributing some papers so we got to spend some time with him. It's so cool to get to know members and how they are doing, the members here are so cool. And each time we go, Dominique bakes us fresh home-made croissants which are the best things in the world, so that's always a bonus. Elder Strong told me I'd love seeing them!

We got to go to zone training which was enlightening and inspiring. I am grateful for a truly inspired mission president. I know our mission will improve again and again as we all work hard. Here in Mont-de-Marsan we have been working hard, we had an exchange and got to see a member (Claude) as well as an ami who sadly we had to drop. I know we'll find those who are prepared soon.

We saw some cool miracles this week. I got to go on an exchange with Elder Blackham here. So in zone training we were invited to do this activity in Preach My Gospel where we choose a time of the day to teach someone a short lesson we practice in companion study. So we did that, and we had about 20 minutes to do a little bit of finding. So we are getting to the bus stop with our 20 minutes, and we see a man sitting on a bench and we go talk to him, teach him the Book of Mormon, and he was super happy and enjoyed it and took a copy, even if he isn't living in town he said he'd contact the missionaries up where he's going. So that was super cool! Me and Elder Thorley my zone leader did the same thing and it was so cool to see how we were able to teach 2 lessons in a specific place, one of which started because a man stopped us and wanted to know more about who we were. So I know the Lord really does inspire our leaders to help us out, and us in the work! I'm excited for more cool experiences like that. So make some plans of something that you will do to help someone at a specific time today! You may just have a miracle :)
Have a great week as always!
Love,
Elder Laney
