Uproar in France

Narbonne is pretty small, even so, all of France is in an uproar. For those of you who haven't heard, there was a bombing on Wednesday in Paris, another shooting there too on Thursday, and on Friday there were multiple smaller attacks throughout France. There is a massive movement worldwide for French patriotism and standing against terrorism called "Je suis Charlie" (I am Charlie), and many huge public things have gone along with that. Here in Narbonne we are ok, though one of the high schools here in town had all the windows busted out of it, in an act of rebellion against some of the Arabs here, even though they didn’t do anything. 

Other than that, for the missionaries this week was pretty normal, we spent a lot of time trying to find people, a lot of our amis our still gone from vacationing. We did a lot of less active work this week, which was really fun, one of the less actives got us tickets to go see his rugby match, so that was a blast! All is well, we had Branch Conference here yesterday in Beziers, and that was really good, I ended up teaching Gospel Doctrines to one of the amis the beziers elders had at church, and didn’t do half bad, so that was great! Au revoir!
