La Différence

It sounds like President or Sister roney sent an email to you telling you the news. So this week Elder Heck and I reentered la suisse to see a doctor. He was a good guy and I felt like Kobe Bryant going to Geneva for medical reasons. He said I had a nasty kidney infection and said that it should clear up with meds. So I hope to be back en plein forme soon. Also while we were there we profited and went to Gex to pick up ma titre de séjour. Every time we rentre en suisse it becomes crazy haha this was no exception. But I love going there its a great country. We were waiting for a bus and long story short my drugs got left on the bench and 30 minutes later we realised and turned back around. Lo and behold they were sitting right where we left them. Thats the second time something like that has happened to me there. Its a celestial place Ive decided.
 
As far as our amis go, Hocine is doing fantastic. We fasted with him yesterday and if all goes well he should be getting baptised the 7th septembre. This week we are going with him to President Benazaars house to do a family home evening. Im pumped and greatful for the willingness of such a busy Church leader to take the time and help teach with us.
 
I really have a great respect for the members of the Church, especially the members here in France. Missionaries come for 2 years work hard (hopefully), then go back home and water ski. These members are always fighting and are always 'down range'. Theyre an inspiration.
 
I love you
 
Elder Gruber
