Bonjour tout le monde,

Another fine week here in Vitrolles. Today we headed down to Marseille to go on a hike for a district p day. It was great being able to relax and relive the memories from my bleu days. We were also in marseille on saturday to attend a baptism there and i got to see and catch up with a lot of the members there. It is crazy to think how fast time has gone by. 

I also got to spend a day in Aix for an exchange. I haven't worked in aix since my first transfer. I really like it there. It isn't to big but there are a lot of cool people because it is a college town. It was nice being able to have people to contact for a change from Vitrolles.

As far as the work in Vitrolles goes we have been working with a partial member family and our hopes are pretty high that we will see the son baptized here pretty soon. He already knows basically everything and comes to church nearly every week. We talked with him this sunday about fixing a day and he said that he would pray for one.

This week we have a ward activity and we should have quite a few amis coming. We contacted this 16 year old kid a while back and taught him on the street. It turns out that he goes to the same school as one of the members in the ward and so she has been a big help in working with him. we lost contact with him for about a week or so and so we figured that he wasn't interested any more but then it turns out that he just lost his phone and when he got a new one he got back in contact with the member who invited him to come to the activity. Hopefully we will be able to start teaching him again. We are lucky to have such great member missionaries here.

Any way i hope all is going well back home. I'm looking forward to skype home next week. Talk to you then! Love ya,

Elder Swenson
