Well after these 2 weeks with elder barr there are a few high points that i'd like to hit on.
the first was the fact that we found a super awesome guy named Arnould. We were contacting on our second day together and we decided to take this path that lined a river which runs through amiens. we had faced a lot of hard rejections but we kept going and we met Arnould. He told us he believed in God and all that. We took a seat and taught him a quick lesson. It's all been good since then. We've taught him and he's been reading and now he's got a baptismal date for the 17th of may. it's super cool to see that we could find someone just the second day of the transfer and just my second day in amiens and he's already engaged to be baptized. He reads the book of mormon all the time and he loves to meet with us. it's also incredible to see the change in him just over 2 weeks. it's so crazy. i can tell the gospel is really changing his life.
This week we had a fun experience where we were porting in a neighborhood and a man pulled up to us and told us we weren't in a good neighborhood. we asked him where to go and he said he'd take us. we got into his audi and he told us all about how he thought what we were doing was great and that he'd love to show us a neighborhood where people would be more open. He took us to the neighborhood and ended up getting his number for a future lesson. it was a cool blessing.
It's good to be with another missionary my same age for the end of my mission. i'm hoping to be with elder barr till i die. dying just means to finish the mission. today he lost his bus pass and we have to walk everywhere. this isn't the best on me because i have 4 blisters but i guess being with elder barr makes it better right? we sure hope so. tomorrow i have my last interview with President and Sister Poznanski because they're leaving before interviews will come around again. it will be a very weird experience but i'm so ready
