As many of you know, my birthday was this week. So thanks a lot for all the emails and/or messages, there were so many! I was surprised on Tuesday when they started coming in, I guess it hadn't hit me yet that I was getting older this week!
But it was a good week to have a birthday since we had two Halloween parties this weekend, first in Mons then in Nivelles! It was nice that they weren't both the same day. We got to talk to lots of the members and their friends and even had one of our amis show up! Activities like that are great for missionary work.
What are even better for missionary work are amazing members! We had two amis come to church in Mons this week, and they had such a great welcome. The members told us after that we had brought such cool people, but it was thanks to their efforts to reach out to them that they felt comfortable enough to be themselves. And that's one of the many reasons members are the best!
À plus tard!
