A Haitian Missionary

With Moise and Calist

Hey Everyone!

This was a great week.  We are working really hard and giving everything we have and it’s an amazing feeling.  I'm loving this work more and more every day.  

We are working with a lot of people right now who have a lot of potential.  Anita quit smoking and has really changed her life.  She felt the spirit so strong in our last lesson that she was in tears.  

We are teaching several other Haitians.  I love the Haitians here and am working hard to learn Creole.  Some of them have a hard time coming to church some Sundays because they do a “pololo.”  I don't know the English word for it but it's when they stand on a corner and someone hires them on the spot to do a job for a couple of hours. 

My companion, Elder Almeida from Brazil, had his birthday this week.  We planned a little surprise for him and someone bought him a Harry Potter notebook.  He almost had a heart attack he was so excited haha.  Like he was legit grabbing his heart haha!  I love that dude.

We were able to provide service this week by painting a house.  One of the guys painting, Tomas, serveda mission in Washington D.C.  He really loves American food and we enjoyed talking about his favorites like cheesecake and chili with cornbread.  The other service that we provide each week are Spanish/English language classes.  

Thanks for all the support.  Please pray for Anita, Calistene, Jean-Claude, Souffrant, Widmelie, Pia, Lenod and Mirella.

Love,

Elder Vincent
