Volume 80: The Québecois Stare.

Tiguidou my friends, I'm here.

 

 

You have no idea what that means haha. Don't worry it's French... kind of.

 

 

Wow this week was HOT!

 

 

For some reason all of a sudden we decided to have 30 degree weather for a whole week. We were not prepared to say the least. Our apartment has been quite hot, and since it's a newer one, we have zero fans. Absolutely nothing. I'm getting flashbacks from last year... not good ones. But it's fine cause while we have been cleaning the members house that has received an "extreme home makeover", we found 5 AC units and 2 fans! She gave us 2 units and 1 of the fans, and we were so excited. In the end only one out of the 3 worked... we are still grateful. Another thing about the heat. The heat that means that we don't wear coats anymore, that means that everyone can see that you are a missionary. There is no big winter coat covering your clothing, it's all white shirts and ties. What does that mean? It means it's time for the "Québecois Stare". Or in other words, all the old people stare at you no matter what you do. When you stare back, they don't look away. When you look back to see if they are still staring, they are. It's like we are famous. But they just think we are the Jehovahs Witness, and they don't like them really here. So not very many people like us. But that's ok, cause all you have to do is speak to them, and they will stop staring, and walk away. Easy. Just kidding, I wish they would talk to us.

 

 

Overall this week was tough.

 

 

We were not able to find anyone new to teach, and no one ended up coming to church. These weeks are hard, especially here in Alma but it's ok cause we have the future ahead of us. There is a lot of people who are interested in the English classes, so we are having success with that. We also after 2 years don't have to wear masks. Glorious.

 

 

I don't got much else to say!

 

 

Yesterday we had a world devotional with the prophet and his wife. It was awesome! My favorite part when he said we need to always keep these 3 labels at the top of our list:

 

 

Son/Daughter of God

Son/Daughter of the Covenant

Disciple of Jesus Christ

Its a great reminder! Never forget who you are!
