[Week 40] France

Howdy everyone! It sounds like all is well is Zion still. Thank you again for all your emails, they mean a lot. Not much new though? Other than chandlers great Wrestling performance. What a stud, I love you brother!
Today I decided to talk a little bit about what goes on in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints here in France, more particularly in the tiny, lost branches. So there is this terrible tendacy here to turn every lesson into deep doctrine. Thats usually not good in a High Priest Quorum, and its even worst in an ami's class (The equivalent of what you teach dad). So it started with the Creation and kind of just went off from there. I've decided it maybe impossible to control these habits.. its just part of the culture haha. Sometimes I feel like sacred things are sometimes taken too lighty. So yeah thats the first oddity I wanted to share. The second was a pretty hilarious thing I've never seen of our heard of happening before. Yesterday during the Sacrament, a member stands up and confesses his sins to the congregation. He told us how he had drank a bunch of wine thursday night and has been deathly sick ever since, and now after the Sacrament he feels healed, healthy, and happy. You can see several problems there, I wont point them out. Haha you never know what you are going to get sometimes during the fast and testimony meeting!
Well shoot I dont have much time because now we only have an hour for emails instead of an hour and a half so I kind of misjusged the time . I got to go back I hope next week I can tell you all about some great miracles that happened!! I love you guys so much and never forget that! Stay Classy.
Forever Love,
Elder Gruber
