Montpellier Week #13

Dear Family,

This week was really great :) I love Sister O. She is from Tahiti, but not actually Tahiti. She speaks French, Marquesan, English and Spanish :) This is the first time she's been in the actually France! like the heart. She has been in Switzerland mostly Geneva her whole mission! She is finished in August. We get along super and she helps me a lot with my french and help her with English and I can't tell you how much I love her :) 

After she got settled in we were able to have some great lessons! With F, D, and E. 

D is doing great :) We taught her the Plan of Salvation and it went wonderfully. She was really touched by the Spirit World. She has an older brother who passed when he was a baby. She never knew him, but the spirit was strong and I know that she will see him again, and he will have a knowledge of the truth. She finally got her question resolved about the three kingdoms too. Our member explained that really well to her. Next is baptism! She has some questions about age, immersion, etc. So I'm stoked for that lesson :) She is so great. So prepared. I love her. 

F called us too! She is really looking. We don't teach her exactly like an investigator, as in consistently, but we do when she needs us. She is really studying the bible. She isn't ready for the Book of Mormon yet, she told us she just isn't ready. It's already a lot to change from Islam to Christianity so I think she is taking it little by little. As she studies the bible she will see things are missing, and when she does, the sisters will be there :) Soeur O is an incredible teacher. So simple. I'm learning so much from her. She showed F the connection between Christ and the Fall. How Resurrection is taken care of, but If we want to be with our Father in Heaven, we must follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Fanny understood so well and the spirit was so strong. We hope to have some bible studies with her this week :)

Then E! It is so cool to be teaching her again. She is incredible.We taught her obedience, prayer and scripture reading. It went great. The spirit was there and when we were leaving she was so anxious to see us again. I hope she will be able to accept . I love her so much! 

Other cool little miracle..... :) We have four Sisters from our ward hospitalized, so Sunday we went and visited one. On our way back, we totally didn't get off at the right tram stop, so we just kept going. In my head, I was like well there must be someone we need to meet then. We we get off just at a random spot and decide to contact. We are walking and we see this guy with a little boy in his stroller, just walking. The spirit was like Go! So we go. We had a cool contact. Cool conversation. He asked about prayer and we said it's communication or conversation with God, and he was so amazed. Said he never heard that before, he loved it. So we were able to set up a lesson for next week. I don't know if anything will come of it, but I know that the Lord needed us to talk to C for whatever reason. 

I believe in revelation and inspiration. I know that we really can be instruments in God's hands if we are worthy and doing everything we are supposed to. He will accomplish what He needs to through his children :) I love you all and I am so grateful for your example's to me. Christ lives and this is His church, led by a living prophet. I love you! 

Love, Soeur Roberts
