Dear family,
So first of all I got the information for mothers day call. […] Hopefully that works, I look forward to talking to you.
Well, nothing too new this week to report to you. My companion is still [a challenge], so time hasn’t exactly been flying over here. I keep hoping that things will turn around.
The mail really does seem to go fast here, I got Elysa’s letter only 3 days after she sent it. I hope things get to you that fast when I send them. I was going to send you some pictures this week, but my companion won’t let me.

Hey everyone!
Well we had a baptism this week. It was yesterday in fact. His name is Emmanuel. He is from Congo. He gave up a lot to be baptized. It is cool. I am proud of him.
Well this week went really good up until Saturday. That is when I had to start working with my companion again. I had a work day in Brussels with the assistants to the president on Wednesday. that went really good. We had a good day, and it was fun to work in Brussels. There was so many languages going on, it was cool. My companion spoke Dutch and English, and no French. So most of our contacting was in English. We met a guy there that is super cool and successful, something they really need here in the church in France, and he turned into an elect new investigator for them. It was super cool.

Dear family,
Well I got my transfer call and I went to Lille. My companion is Elder Bertrand. Pretty much, he doesn’t [seem to] like me which of course [creates a challenge]. So this week has felt like a whole transfer.
I really miss my old city, Lille is actually really nice, but its impossible to enjoy [at the moment]. I just just started biting my tongue 24/7. He pretty much just thinks that I do everything wrong, and all this stuff.
