Hallo mensen!
I hope that your
Thanksgiving was awesome. Elder DuWors and I kinda forgot about it, so we ate
spaghetti. Oops.
We had a really
good week! Lots of exciting stuff. Calithos is still progressing well, and we
are hoping to put him on baptismal date later today.
Joris just came
back from his vacation in America! He came to church and brought us some
coveted microwave popcorn, something they do not have here. He is still doing
really well, and we are also planning on setting a goal for baptism with him
tonight.
Transfers are
this Wednesday! And I will be headed to Roosendal, right at the bottom of the
Netherlands. My new companion is Elder Jean Freau (I hope I spelled it right)
and we will be co-district leaders. I have been a single district leader for
nearly 8 months, so hopefully it means that I will get a little more free time
at the end of the day. I am going to miss Antwerpen, but I am excited to go
back to Nederland and get to know a new city!
I had a pretty
life changing experience this week. Even though I won't share a lot of details
as it is personal, it has really made me appreciate the sacrifice of Jesus
Christ. He suffered all of the pains of everyone, so that he can understand us
all even better than we can understand ourselves. I pray for at least a little
bit of that understanding so that I can better my relationships with my
companions and others.
The bike
shed!
I love you all!
Have a great week!
Love,
Elder Thornton
