Mission Week 38, Eindhoven Week 18

Hi, everybody.
The work in Eindhoven is going really well. Pastoor Koopmans has said that he thinks that the Catholic church is doing things to try to push him to make a decision about what he wants to do. They're currently jerking him around, telling him he's going to stop being a pastor one day, and then asking him to stay until they find a replacement.
We do have a baptism scheduled for Saturday. It was announced in sacrament meeting yesterday, and we've scheduled the baptismal interview. There are just a few things that need to be ironed out, like my temple pants and who're doing the things that aren't ordinances. But Isa's really excited, and all the members are excited for her. A lot of the Young Single Adults are going to go to an activity late so they can be at her baptism, which is at noon.
On Thursday, Brother Jones called us to let us know that something had come up and that he was probably going to be going home and not coming back, and he told me that Sister Jones had visited you. He also notified me that you can apparently buy American macaroni and cheese here. I probably miss corn dogs more than mac & cheese, but I'll probably get some through the Knudsens and the airforce, if I end up staying in Eindhoven.
It's scary to know that Aaron's doing sixteen-year-old things. My second date was on my half birthday, and my first time driving on the high/freeway was driving home from the airport via Bangerter with Coach Briggs and Courtney Ogzewala in the car. I'm glad to know that Aaron hasn't crashed yet. So we're still tied for the number of crashes.
I would've participated in the Flat as a Pancake run at least once when I was in high school, but I could never afford the entry fee. I hope they have fun and raise enough money to go to the Footlocker invitational. I remember hearing about all the fun the cross country runners had there.
Hmm...Not much has really happened this last week. We've been super-busy with random appointments with our two progressing investigators, as well as a meal appointment almost every day. I did eat more than a kilo of clams again on Wednesday, but that's pretty much it.
I love you all. I know that the church is true and that the Book of Mormon is true.
