Nov 2nd Excerpt

Family.... I miss you.

When I read all your loving words, I just can't help but cry. I can't believe how much the Lord is molding all of you, Im proud of all of you, and I love your guts!!!! I'm will not lie to you and make things sound all peachy, I am discouraged a lot lately. I don't show it, but I feel it. I continue to pray for strength, and count my blessings, and have faith this discouragement will pass.

We have two investigators right now, and are crossing our fingers for another! We meet with her today, her name is Celine. One of the two, Anne just became an ami, and she came to church Sunday!! She hit it off with the members and she is going to come again! We are truly blessed, we were hitting a dead zone for a while. We were recieving a lot of contacts but they weren't solid, or the adversary got to them first.

Dad I love your testimony of music, I feel the same. Elder Boehme has General Conference addresses on his ipod, and it is a joy to listen to the prophets words. You all look so well!! I loved the pictures and can't wait for you to send more!

We have seen many different kinds of people from day to day. Most in a hurry, the expression is "je suis pressé" ha ha and my favorite expression that I say is "Que Dieu Vous Bénisse" which means God Bless you! Sister Carter likes us to say that. Tomorrow we have a blue's conference, its like a training for newbies. By they way they call us Blues here, not greenies ha ha.

There are 80 missionaries in the mission, 20 in my zone, and 6 in my district!

I love you all, I don't have much time today! Didn't write yesterday because it is all saints day here in France and everything was closed! We have to run to an appointment!! I love you all, baby Mason is so cute!!

Chow!!!

Love,

Elder Petersen
