Dearest Family,

Last week I figured out how to change the keyboard into English but I haven't been able to figure it out at this new place...forgive all the mistakes to come. Good to hear that life is still good in VA/CT. I remember going to one of those seminary reunions with you dad. I am excited at the prospect of one day getting to do the same thing with Sis Delhoyo! When is Josh going through the temple? I suggest earlier rather than later...get in as many times as possible! How was the birthday celebration for mom? Hadley...how is school? Have you started basketball? Have you heard from the Quinns how the wedding went? Love the news from home! Liege remains beautiful and cold! The week has been absolutely jam packed with miracles, love and hilarity. Apparently the other day I prayed and blessed the woman with death and with liver! In short the french is coming along nicely:) Because i can't type very fast i am going to include just the highlights...we were doing a consecrated hour on Wenesday and after a series of events we were reffered by this muslim man to go knock on a door that had a bunch of christians living their. The doorbell didn't work but the door was open so we decided to go in and knock the doors. We climed to the top of the stairase and found this family who had just moved there from Kosovo 3 days ago. The house was COMPLETELY trashed and the family was doing their best to clean. Turns out they could speak 8 languages between them but not English or French...we managed to get them to allow us to return and we spent a while at their house on Friday cleaning. Incredible faith and we are taking a russian speaker zith us next week to teach them. Amazing we have been doing a lot member passbys since i have been here to find out who wants to have home teachers. Last week we found this woman who is so solid. She was so strong in the church but some things happened that weren't so good and she hasn't been back for 12 years. Long story short we had talked to her, had the wml go over and the elders also stopped by. When we went by two days ago she told us she is coming back. Ahh betwenn inability to type and express myself these stories hardly seem as amazing as they were. I guess all I can say is that Heavenly Father is so involved in His work and that miracles are all over the place. We just need to work our hardest to keep up with Him. One last quickish thought. I was studying in Alma 37 and loved where he talks about how we need to teach people to hate sin and then later he talks about how easy it is to live the gospel. Its so hard to see how real satan is and how he is so good at making what the wolrd teaches as the easy and entertaining path. dont let him get you! anyways I love you all... I am leaving tonight for an exchange in brussels and am so excited! I'll keep you updated bisou!!!! soeur powers
