the wheat and the tares of a typical/atypical week









Here is a typical/atypical week. Sunday we taught whatever classes are needed,usually Primary and Gospel Doctrine, oh and before church Temple Preparation. Monday morning 'bright and early"...Le yoga at a Gex ward with two nonmembers last week, The drive back including wheat ready to harvest.After that we shop at Noz and Ed's Noz is a discount overstock- stuck in the 50's, which we love and right next door is Ed's, kind of like the Old Reems in Provo, old fashion but good frozen and sometimes fresh. This week we got abricots for $1.90 a kilo, not bad and home grown..;surplus. Monday night is Spanish Family home evening with many different Spanish, including Chile, Peru, and Brazil ( yes, I know it is Portuguese speaking but that is the day we usually see and work with them. Tuesday we made cookies for FHE, (French/English is held on tuesday nights) and cookies for our neighbor who is very sick with her forth pregnancy. Wednesday is Ballet for some YSA then French class. This week we had a speical Zone conference on Friday as our Mission has now changed to the French/Lyon Mission and we recieved a certificate ,Job well done release from the Geneva Switzerland mission which now longer exists. After we drove 1 1/2-2 hours to Chambery branch for a Fete de la Musique bal. Then bright and early Sat, for the play offs of le match football. Our home town held a Hugh fete honoring Voltaire bringing in crowds from all over,At one of the plays they grabbed me out of the audience (do I look like a sucker?) and made me up for part of the scene..WOW , I am well spent but happy to be here and serving at this time..
