So Brussels was pretty good. Nothing big happened. No shakira. I got a gaufre and we saw the little peeing dude. All Elder S______ had to do was sign a paper and take a fingerprint. So after that we went and got lunch. I took some pictures.
This week was also "helping hands" (giant churchwide service project for Earth Day). It was SUPER fun. It wasnt like in Chico where the whole stake is there with a big fleet of missionaries. Just the 6 missionaries from charleroi and the 2 wards of charleroi. The entire morning was a clothing drive. People have been donating their old clothes the last couple weeks and we sorted them out. It was CRAZY. Some of the stuff was pretty gross.
In the afternoon, the wards invited an orphanage to come play with our primary kids and stuff. I played soccer with a bunch of 5 to 11 year olds. I beasted them. jk. We all had a lot of fun and I passed a lot. We also played Frisbee. Then we served them a big nice meal and gave them each a big bag of candy. They were SO happy and that made me pretty happy. I wish I would have done more big service projects before the mission.
My new companion and I get along super well. We are kind of having success. We not finding new amies but we are finding people to teach- some people who used to not progress.or people who just moved here from Switzerland and were inactive. So things are going pretty well.
I'm pretty sure our soccer team will be good next year. I'm a lot stronger than i was when i was 18, so i just gotta work on my other soccer skills, but I'm going to be a lot more aggressive and confident....that's for sure.
So I dont know if you've seen it or not... but the church made a new video for Easter called "Because of Him" I EXHORT you to watch it. Honest, I tear up every time. and so has everyone we've shown it too.
well as you can see, it was a fun week... but not too much happened.
