Bonjour Famille!

Well things are going pretty well out here. As you could see we spent a lot of time with Chris Morales this week. The guy is flat out a stud.(as with the rest of his family). I love the Morales a lot!! They are really my family away from y'all haha. Anyways Chris is a perfect example of magnifying our callings and just straight up trying to do the best in serving the Lord. He easily comes out with us around 8 hours every week without fail. Its been awesome because I truly consider him to be a friend/brother now! My Filipino brother! Something that really stuck out to me is that he told me in his mission they were really big on BRT (Building, Relationship, Trust) and it's something that I've really tried to incorporate in my daily work. It makes sense if people dont feel like they can trust you, they wont want to listen!

This past Friday Elder Larry S. Kacher of the quorum of the Seventy came back to MTL just to speak with the YSA. It was a great fireside! The topic was mainly on marriage. He discussed some reasons why the Church is so strong on the institute of marriage and not delaying it. It really opened up my eyes! It was pretty cool. Look forward to that day..hahaha

Also this week we had a cool lesson with someone who has been struggling feeling like God isn't there anymore for them. And what it all came down to is just humbling ourselves.

Good to hear Cam and Kacie are well too!

Well love yall so much! Miss yall like crazy! Have a good week!

Avec Amour!
