Companions: Soeur Morrow and Kim (note the mom-made jewelry!)Whoa !!! Week long English fast ended this morning (They were committed to only speaking French, hence the "English Fast"), so I have been able to express myself, say what I want to say, with the words I know how to use!! Hehe but the fast was wonderful, really enjoyed it, although it was difficult, my French defiantly improved!So kind

Things in Nîmes are so good! Some amis are taking their time, but it is ok. We contacted this lady and set up another RV, and surprisingly she came, because it was a week later...we taught her a first, she has some weird ideas about Prophets, which I understand her point of view having no religious education, but she believes that we are all Prophets, if we preach the word of God. Therefore, we

This week has been great!! Finding out a lot about myself, the work, the language....it has been a “trying” week! But good! One day, we had 4 RV’s!!! I was so excited...yeah, every single one was ratéd! (I believe this means they were stood up) Kind of frustrating, but we were able to go searching for a lot of people....Well, we had a sorée with Janet and MJ and it was so much fun! We were going

(We had some internet difficulty this morning, so her letter is rather sparce. She was telling me about helping Marie-Jeanne set up her own hotmail account. Jude is doing GREAT!.. OK.. update. I heard from Julia on Wednesday and she was struggling a bit.. just normal growing pains of a missionary, but if you could all remember her in your prayers, I am sure she would greatly appreciate it!)Ok so

Goood week!! but probably the stupidest email I have written...Had kind of a scare, and we still aren’t sure what is going on, but with Patrice and Kamelia! We showed up to their house for our RV and we were all going to Erwin and MJ's for dinner, and there were the police at their apartment. Come to find out they had a friend that was just using their address to mail things to because he didn’t

What has happened this week ? Well Sœur Kim has been sick, not sure what is going on, but some cold, achy, so for about 2 days we took it easy. But she is so wonderful! Words cannot describe how wonderful she is!!! This girl is POWERFUL with her testimony! Moves mountains! She teaches me so much! She is so close to the spirit, so amazing with the French, and we are soo alike! We have so much fun

This is an African family I taught with Soeur Cook in Montpellier on Tuesday!!! Listen to their story, Lillian, she is sitting in the middle with 2 kids on her lap, she has 9 children, she is 39 and from Guyana. She met the missionaries there, and wanted so badly to be baptised all of her children of age were baptized before her, because she couldn’t be baptized because she was living with the

Janet's baptism was the most amazing thing!!! As you know her husband said she could be baptised...and we had "daily contact" with her the whole week! Without opposition! (just kidding...) but we really had daily contact and it was so good!! She wanted to see us, but we made it really exciting, painting her toenails for her baptism, planning out all the gory details, making the guest list, making

Julia has decided to stay in France until October 4th. Her options for her release date were either August 30th or six weeks later in October. I knew she should stay until October, but I wanted her to make the decision. I have a feeling I'm going to have to pry her away in October. She loves this experience and every day is a joy to her.Again, please pray for Janet Lambert this week. I know

Reporting from Le Petit Brazil!!We have been all over the place! Well as you can see, I learned some hard core Tahitian dancing!! It was so fun! We went to Marie-Jeanne’s and her cousin was there and they just whipped out the sarongs (that is a hard word to spell...) and we went in the bathroom and changed....because they told us “you can’t dance unless you have a sarong on” So there you go, can’

Miracles !!Well, the first miracle is we got a message on our phone from a lady with just her number and « I want a Book of Mormon » so I call her back and we set up the RV and she continues to tell me that she picked up a fiche off the ground (A Joseph Smith Fiche) in a store she was shopping in and picked it up, read it, and wants a Book of Mormon! I was blown out of my mind!! I was so excited!

Up Down and All AroundWe are teaching 2 new amis that are Roseline's friends. Roseline was just baptised. They are from Africa, and so great. They don’t speak French, and a little English, so it is very simple...but it is fun!!! They are great!!! We proposed the end of the month for them to get baptized! Their names are Joy and Sandra!We had the most intense RV of my life with the Mongolians!

We had a lovely long conversation wtih Jude on Christmas. She did 98% of the talking, although we did relate to her the story of her car. In short, she is having a wonderful time.What I heard in her voice was a maturity and a determination to serve God at all costs. I made the comment at one point that the sisters in her mission seemed to be great and how remarkable it was that they all got

(Julia went to Marseille this week to get her “Carte de Sejour” which allows her to remain in country) And with Soeur Moore there always has to be drama!

What a Week !!! We have had so much fun, and done so much! As you can see from pictures we went to Patrick’s house, who is a member, but less active, and he is WEIRD!!! I don’t know if you can see the pictures but he has made this HUGE round table that seats 12 people, for the 12 months of the year, there is a spinning round thing in the middle which is really cool, but then there are 7 more

Well!!! WOW we have had fun, I was so excited to hear you got snow, we didn’t, and to be honest, I am glad because I don’t know if I could handle snow as a missionary!!! it is cold enough as it is!!! You say that Nîmes is pretty warm? We hear that it is the coldest in the winter because it is kind of in valley so we have wind like none other!!! It is actually quite cold, but it isn’t bad!!

We pushed back Matthews baptism date to December 10th but we aren’t sure if we can even do it then. He has been acting a little weird. We set the date on Saturday and told him we would pick them up on Sunday morning fro church, and really enforced that if he wants to be getting

We do Family Home Evening for all the people who are alone, they are all old people, we don’t have any young people in our ward, so we have a spiritual thought, someone makes dinner (we rotate) and then we play a game...So Daniel asked us (the Soeurs) to come early and help him make dinner, he is a 40 y/o man who was born with polio and can’t walk all that well, never been married and lives

Well, as for me, things are great, the work is going forth. We are teaching Christina, who is a former ami, but her boyfriend told her he didnt want her to be taking the lessons, so she stopped, and last week we taught her and she came to

As you can see, Antibes is just up the coast from Cannes. It is a vacation and resort town for all of Europe. It is between Cannes and Nice. As Julie, the wife of the Bishop in Aix said to me, " If all the chic people of the world like to vacation there, and Picasso made it his residence in a castle by the sea, I am sure she is going to love it too."

What has happened this week? Other than rain? Hehe BEAUTIFUL things!!! We have been studying French with Soeur Conesa once or twice a week, the first time she thought she would help us with kitchen vocab, which is good but not really important for me right now, I don’t want to teach amis about the kitchen, I want to teach them about the gospel!!!

I am loving it, loving Soeur Michel, she is just on fire and amazing!! Seriously, we have done so much work just in the week she has been here, it is awesome!!

So it was transfers...and man it was crazy!! We got our transfer calls late Saturday night, and all I heard from the closed closet door was, "No you're not taking my Soeur Morrow from me..." and I was like "WHAT?" So there you have it, Soeur Johnson went back to Toulouse!! In the year she has been out, she has served in 2 villes, she blued (greened) in Toulouse, came to Aix, and just now went

Another amazing week of miracles and growth has passed….I can't even think about what has gone on…Little Emilie Marcos that we have been preparing to be baptised just turned 8, but we haven’t taught her in about a month, but we taught them this week and Emilie is reading in her children’s LDM and she is reminding her mom at night to pray as a family! They are doing great!! That RV was a little

I forgot to mention that Julia sent us a cassette tape. Just listening to it was almost like talking to her on the phone. As you can imagine, her personality is very much intact, and she spends a great deal of the time with Soeur Johnson laughing and joking. They seem like a great pair.As close as it made me feel to her, it also made me miss her terribly.4 down, 14 to go.

HAIR:If you would have asked me 4 1/2 months ago if I would do it, I would have said "NO!" But after a lot of pondering and thinking about the situation that was at hand, I did it, the deed is done, there is no turning back...and to be honest, it is darn cute!!I CUT MY OWN HAIR!!This morning I cut the front and Soeur Johnson cut the back, from point A to point B. I was able to get the front

So, we had an eventful week!! On the way home from emails last week we were stopped by 2 girls. Soeur Johnson was on the phone about English class, and I heard “Look, Sister Missionaries…” I turned around and there were 2 very dirty, handed bathed in days, girls. They asked if they could stay at our apartment because their train had been cancelled…this is when it started to get weird. We asked

Music to my cauliflowerBy Leslie BrennerTimes Staff WriterJuly 13, 2005Thursday is Bastille Day — or le 14 Juillet, as it's known in France.For me, that's cause to think about French food. And to bemoan the fact that my husband and son and I won't be going to France this summer as usual to visit my in-laws, who are obsessed with the stuff.It's tough for me to get it into my zucchini that we don't

OK, I KNOW the post looks like Martian, but I can't figure out for the moment how to fix the diacritical marks. If you have a comment on this to help me, please let me know.

Where do I start? At the beginning of the week? So we had a slumber party with Soeur Carson and Soeur Wilcox from Montpellier...because we had Zone Conference in Aix at our new, beautiful chapel. Soeur Johnson and I carried up the dusty mattresses up the very small, spiral staircase...Don't forget that French mattresses are quite a bit longer (taller) than American, so they wouldn't fit standing

HEY THERE!! Now the real letter...Sorry, MSN was WWAAYYY to distracting, I couldn't handle it. I felt so guilty and horrible; I knew that I wouldn’t receive the blessings I could have if I hadn't done that. President Pratt always says, "If you have to ask, 'Should I?' Then the answer is NO!" So there you have it! And I have witnessed the results.We don’t have much time to email today, so I

I am here, alive, safe and starving!! We haven't eaten anything but 2 apples....We haven't had much of a preparation day today because we had a RV (I am assuming this is a discussion) with Ines in the smack dab middle of the day, it is almost 6 and we haven't done anything but teach Ines. It went really well. She is so ready for baptism, she just doesn't know it. She knows Joseph Smith was a

I have decided to create a blog just about Julia's mission experience. I will give her the password so she can post her own messages if she wishes.Last week there was no email because she inadvertantly erased it. C'est la vie.
