Hello, everyone. This week was amazing. But I'm very tired so I'm gonna write this email and it may be quicker, so sorry about that.
This week was awesome. We had 3 exchanges. They were all very fun, I had the opportunity to go back down to Charleroi and it was amazing. I was able to see Julian and a couple other friends from there, as well as all the Elders. While I was there, I was with Elder Geissler, who is amazing and from Switzerland. And then the next day we were in Leige, which is another city, and I was with Elder Sheen, lowkey, probably one of the funniest missionaries in the mission, just crazy. We had a lot of time for finding, and at the end we got chocolate so it's great day!
This last Saturday was really cool. We did an exchange with other elders up here, and we went to play some basketball with some of our friends. One of them is named Jerome, and he is really cool. Last Sunday, we had a really cool spiritual experience right after church. We went and visited of our members in the hospital, who has als or louis gehrig's disease. And he was super sweet. We took a couple of photos with him. It's in my Google Photos album.
One friend of ours who I'm beginning a really big connection with is Fred and he is so fun. We had a funny story when we went to Charleroi, we found out that last transfer my old companion did a reference call with someone who spoke Dutch. There was an elder there who is from Switzerland so he spoke German and my old companion told the person on the phone that there was somebody in the apartment who spoke Dutch, so he gave the phone to the elder from Switzerland and he did not speak Dutch. He speaks German, so that was a funny moment when they told us that story.
Also, when I was in Charleroi, I got my haircut by a missionary who had never cut hair before. He did his best, but I'm lowkey a little clapped. It also did not help that we did it outside at night. So he couldn't see my hair. But we still alive, and that's the important thing, and I'm still loving my mission.
Spiritual thought
This week I came across a general conference talk that was given by Lavell Edwards and I absolutely love it. It talks a lot about football and preparing ourselves for missions, but also for life.
