HELLO everyone! Elder Bollard reporting for duty. What a great week and what an even greater P-day now that I have seen that my friend Zack Deleray has been called on a mission to Brazil! Congrats my man :)

So this week started off with an awesome rdv with Lyvanna and Claire. Claire is an all star and she is such a great member. We started with the first lesson and it went well. We are going to their house again tonight!

On Tuesday, we blitzed a ville called Muret.  It was gnarly because there aren't many people who live there but we had several good converstaions. I was with Elder Haskin from Georgia and we had a blast.  We also went to a ville called Foix and it is straight out of Lord of the Rings.  Check out pics on my dropbox, they even nicknamed the city Gondor.

 

After that we had a super cool time with the Johnston family (Toulouse Rugby Captain) and we gave a blessing to his daughter. 

On Thursday, we taught Caroline from Germany. She is a friend of the Van Tonders and the rdv went really well. We talked about the "my family" booklets with her and she was super interesting in doing her own. After that ,we went to the Serrano Millones and had one of the funniest nights of my mission. They are one of the raddest families ever.  Frere Serrano is our Stake Mission Leader and he is a boss. 

Then on Friday, we had Zone Conference in BDX!  It was about alot of the same stuff that was presented to us a MLC. We also watched "Meet the Mormons", THAT was the most intense movie I have seen in a while :)

On Saturday, we had another rdv with the friend of a member and then we went to the Osmans for dinner.  This ward is great and the members are warriors. 

This week is going to be crazy because we have 4 exchanges. Pray for us that we will have energy by the end of the week!

Well that's about it! I am glad to hear the good news coming from home.  You are all awesome and I love you. 

Remember that if you ask God with faith, he will answer you. Even in the toughest of times.
