June 24, 2013

Hello again dear family,

So as usual I have a new companion this transfer and am in a new ville. This transfer I am in Toulouse and am serving with Elder Wilson. I know Elder Wilson really well because he was in Marseille with me the first 2 transfers and am really excited to be serving with him. Also Elder Tulley will be training a bleu  and they will be staying in the same appartment with us. Also here are 3 other elders (Wolfenstein, Ashton, and Truman)  that have been in my districts in the past. Basically Toulouse is the new Marseille. We're excited. This is going to be a great transfer.

Last week was a great week as well with alot accomplished. We visited quite a few members and as a result of our commitments to invite members we had 11 amis at church on sunday. We found and taught some cool new people as well and Elder Wheat should have a good amount of rdvs with his new comp (he is staying there and elder Connault got transfered to gap). We also finally got  all of the stuff set up in the new appartment that we had to set up for the sisters who are coming to St Etienne this transfer.

Yesterday was awesome. We had the baptisimal service of the kids after church. It was really spiritual and even resulted in some spirit induced tears of some of the non members who were there. We had a good  time saying goodbye to all of the members and had a really good sunday.

Any way as usual on transfer days i dont have alot of time today because i spent 6 hours on the train today. I will write more and send photos next week. 

Love ya,
Elder Swenson
