First off here is so much that I want to say but I don't have enough
time because it would take all day, but here are the bullet
points :)
-Geneva is nuts! Literally every nationality is represented! It is
really awesome to go contacting :)
-Going to church felt like a USA ward because the members here are very punctual. To put it short (for everyone who knows my Dad), that is like how a lot of members are, in a good way :) A lot of members here are very educated, precise, and it is really fun to be here as a missionary because they get work done :)
-Ward council was legendary this Sunday and extremely professional and
efficient.
-I have never been in a place where there is too much work to handle, and
here in Geneva I have felt that. There is so much going on and new
faces, a medium to big size city, and new everything. The first couple
days were hectic but it's better now :)
-Elder Roemer my new companion is such a bro and he is from Alamo,
Nevada. He is so chill and he literally never has stress, it's nuts! He is a very caring Elder and hard worker.
-There are 5 missionary companionships in Geneva so you see each other a lot more.
-Over 100 members that come each Sunday
-3 wards come to church here. Each Ward is a different language,
English, French, and Spanish
-There are two members of the seventh in our ward so that is fun.
Sunday school class is pretty epic :)
-There was a baptism this week for Romana. She is from Ethiopia and
she really has a sweet spirit. Her baptism was really a great
experience for her and the ward was really supportive.
There is so many more things but know everything is going great and
Geneva is super awesome! So many people are willing to talk with us
and the members are awesome! It's weird though because a lot of them
are from Utah so not going to lie it's really strange but we ate a
thanksgiving dinner at the Flakes home and I literally wanted to cry
in happiness when I saw the food :)
Lastly, Special shoot out to my sister Jenessa and her fiancé Greg.
They are getting married this week :)

P.S. I ended up not opening my Christmas presents yet. I thought of the marshmallow kid in the Uchdorf video :)
