Baptized Fabrice!

What a great week! for starters i have to give a shout out to my el salvadorian bro in law. Ricky we ate some papousa on monday and it was sooooo goood! but now let's get to the stuff that matters. 

This week we solidified the baptism of fabrice by actually baptizing him. He has changed so much and he loves Thomas s Monson. We watched the talk with him where Pres. Monson tells the story about when he lit the weeds on fire as a kid at his cabin. he loves how modern all the stories were. that's why we call it modern day prophet right? well his baptism was a nice service and everything went smoothly from there. he was so happy on sunday when he got to church and he actually started singing the hymns. he said that since he was a member it was his obligation to sing the hymns now even if he doesn't like singing. oh great! i think all the members need to have that type of attitude.

We also found a sweet brazilian family. we taught the mother and the son and the mother said she will be baptized, the son was a little more hesitant. She is super nice and has lived in brussels for 9 years. it's fun to see all the different cultures out here and to hear all the stories about why people came and how things are going for them.

mission council friday was a super great opporunity to feel the spirit and see the direction in which the mission is going. now we're getting a whole surge of new missionaries so we are focusing on finding. we are focusing on talking to people everywhere at all times. this is the most perfect thing and just some more proof that the people leading this mission truly are inspired. i had been thinking about this for a while because between strombeek and louise people don't like to help one another out. i think that if we're all contacting in the different areas of brussels the work will get going even faster and we will see even more baptisms.  the theme for this transfer is.. I love brussels! all around you see the shirts the say i (heart) brussels so i thought it would be cool to get everyone going on that and having us love brussels. this means we will contact all over and not let it matter whether we are in strombeek or louise. It's so true that everyone loves brussels

much love
