Hello, everybody welcome back to my email. We had a great week of missionary work, and we saw a couple miracles. We started this week by actually getting my new companion. His name is Elder house and he is from Utah, but he is an absolute dog. He's so cool and we're going to have a blast together. He also eats 10 eggs each morning. Every morning, working out gonna have to start to clutch up for us. 


I'm currently in my last 6 months of my mission so it's time to lock in before I go back. I actually love Brussels so much. It's like one of the greatest cities for missionary work. One of the miracles we saw this week is we're trying really hard on 1 of our friends to get baptized. And we saw him on the metro the other day, and it was amazing. And we just talked chill. 

We're teaching this fun family who has 3 kids. Her name is Ariane. She now has a baptismal date for the 8th of February. And we are so pumped. When we went over to her house this last Saturday, she invited 3 of her nieces and nephews to join us. Then they all came to church this last Sunday. One more miracle is that this last Saturday, I talked to this person on the metro named Clarice, and I asked her if she wanted to come to church and she said, yes! The next Sunday, we exchanged phone numbers, I explained what the Book of Mormon was in the base of our church and on Sunday, she came to church and she loved it. She also had a friend who's a member so miracles everywhere.

Also, Julian that I taught in Charleroi came to visit us in Brussels and we got waffles. He is one of the best miracles of my mission.

Tonight we are teaching English to some Ukrainian refugees. We're currently going to see a bunch of supercars at a car show. So that's what's on the plan for P-Day. I'll throw some photos in my Google Photos album. Je vous aime 

One of the things we're doing for the zone this transfer is we chose a scripture to memorize and we're focusing really hard on the miracles that we see as missionaries because they are all around us. So this one we focus on was Second Nephi 27:23.

23 For behold, I am God; and I am a God of miracles; and I will show unto the world that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and I work not among the children of men save it be according to their faith.

I'd invite you all to look for the miracles that you've seen in your week because we know they're there because God hasn't changed.
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...
