2nd letter from Kortrijk, Belgium - Week 56 & 57

Hey Everyone! 

Man these past two weeks have been crazy, so busy!!  haha I love it! 

So this week on Monday we had the chance to go to some World War I sites and man was that crazy, very sobering.   The conditions those men lived in were simply inhumane.  I think now I have a far better understanding of why people say "Never Again" It was truly eye opening and an experience that I'm truly grateful for.

We walked through trenches, like actual trenches from World War I, we went to places where thousands of men died and read letters from wives to husbands and mothers to fathers.  It was a very special experience.   

On another note, the work here is really picking up we have found some awesome new investigators and yeah the branch is doing fantastic!  

It is truly a blessing serving here.   Also this Saturday we get transfer calls!  Crazy so I will let you all know what is going on there.

I love you all have an amazing week!
