Hello, everyone, this week's been great! So I'm here in Brussels, getting ready to celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus. It's been absolutely amazing. 


This last week, we did so many things and had an opportunity to go on a couple exchanges. This week was really awesome. But also really tiring, we were in Brussels, Liege, Charleroi and Paris all in the same week, but we love our Lord. So it's been good. 


This last Sunday, we saw a couple miracles with a couple friends coming to church.  Especially with one of our friends named Geraud, he is absolutely amazing. But all in all the week was great. We had a fun time. I scared the bejeebers out of my companion with a fake rat one day, and we missed our train twice. There is also a Belgian chocolate store here in Belgium called Leonidas which is soo fire! We love it. I think I was there 3-4 times during the week. 


This last Sunday we saw a ton of miracles. One of the miracles we saw was when we had a lesson with one of our friends after church where we straight up asked him if he was interested in being baptised and he said yes!! So this was a fire moment in my life as a missionary. 



Spiritual thought 

30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.


31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.


32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:


Merry Christmas to all,


Elder Smith

 June 23, 2025 Hot!!!  It was so hot here in Saint-Quentin this week. I've never eaten more popsicles than in the last week. We only had one fan that worked and it is a mini fan, so yeah. But the Lord's work didn't stop.  We did a ton of finding like normal, we also had an exchange which was awesome. We went to Lille and  did an exchange with our ZLs. I learned a ton up there to bring to Saint-Quentin. Also I don't know why but I seem to find and be companions with people from French Polynesia.  On Friday we crossed this family from new Caledonia and they are so cool. It was Elder Tuua and Tupana who initially talked to them. And then we were near the river when I saw them and we started talking about church and all it was a super awesome experience.  Sunday came around and one of our amazing members brought her friend with her to church! She is soo cool and we're excited to teach her it truly was a fun week.  We just went grocery shopping and bou...

 April 21, 2025 By far the craziest week of my mission!!  I'll just take you from Tuesday to Thursday  Tuesday I called the cops. It was late and we just got done with a lesson with one of our friends (who is a little crazy). So we get done with this lesson and all of the sudden I see this guy sitting on the church entrance right outside. His hands were on his head and there was some blood on his knuckles and he was telling us all these crazy things. Anyway, our friend looks at me and says "it's a demon", so she puts her hand on his head and repeats something in her native language (Dutch). In the end, we didn't know what to do so we just called the emergency line and had some police officers take him to a psychiatric hospital. So that was my Tuesday. Wednesday we got lost trying to get home, then on Thursday we went to Institute (which is like a class for all the young adults in the Paris area). This drunk guy walks in and has some problem with the seminary direc...

 September 8, 2025 Hello everyone. Hope your week has been good. I did a lot of things this week, starting out transfers happened. I am now with a new companion named Elder Jones. He is super cool and goofy. We're gonna have a lot of fun together. I can already tell.  And big news from my family, my little sister got her mission call to Mexico, Pachuca! Megan will be an amazing missionary. We went to transfers in Paris. It was fun to see all the other missionaries again! I got my tite de sejour, which means I'm now legal in France. And to cap it all off, we got to eat at 5 Guys sooooooo good! An old friend from the mission sent me a wedding invitation. He's trying to kill me. Charleroi has been awesome. There are so many people to find and teach. Just this last week we had the opportunity to put one of our friends on baptismal date. His name is Benjamin. The baptism is on the 11th of October and we're super excited. He is super cool. He came to church yesterday. He told...
