La Terre Promise (update #58)

Bonjour tout le monde!!
This week has been so good (and with a few less tears than last week😉).

We saw so many miracles but I'll just share two of my favorite:
We were waiting for our bus to come when a guy named Tom arrived. Our bus was late so we ended up talking for about 30 minutes. We thought we would be getting on the same bus so when a different bus came and he got on we were so sad because we weren't able to get any of his contact information! 
Fast forward to the next morning and we receive this message on Facebook: 

<<Hello, I'm Tom, we just had a talk at the bus stop 😁  It's was really nice bumping into you and Adélaïde, I enjoyed talking with you! ... >>

He asked our first names during the conversation and then he had literally searched and found US on Facebook. So cool. He didn't end up making it to church today but we're seeing him later this week :) 
Another story:   At the beginning of the month Soeur Rutter and I both renewed our bus passes in the machines at the gare (train station), but for some reason mine had not been working. On Tuesday we went to the gare to get it taken care of when the lady helping me said: "I don't know why your pass isn't working, but I know that God sent you to come here to talk to me. I've seen you missionaries before." She proceeded to offer US her number before I could even ask for it.  Her name is Jessica.

Also, Soeur Wadsworth (Millie) came to visit and it was SO FUN!!! 

We went and visited our amie Christina and went to dinner with her parents. 
While we were with Christina she commented "Wow, you are so beautiful now Camilla 1" (she calls us Camilla 1 and Camilla 2 because our names are both Camille.) then she turned to me and said "you're clearly still a missionary, you don't wear a lot of makeup, do you?" Hahaha. She then proceeded to comment at least 3 times that Camilla 1 should keep wearing make up. #missionaryprobs.

I'll finish with this super cute thing we heard about on Sunday. One of the cutest families in our ward is the famille V. They have a little 4 year old and an 18 month old (both girls). We've been over there a couple times and challenged them to read the Book of Mormon every night as a family. Last week we wrapped up a children's Book of Mormon and gave it to them as a present.

On Sunday Soeur V came up to us and told us they had been reading every night, but last night they had gotten home late and she told Olivia (4 year old) that they weren't going to read. To which Olivia responded "mommy, I thought Jesus told us to read the Book of Mormon every day." So then they read... SO CUTE. And the dad is not a member which means he is now reading the Book of Mormon every day with his family! (And he already come to church every week).

Anyway, life is good. France is beautiful. Thanks for all the love and prayers!!
Love,
Soeur Cami Goold
