This has been another great week. We've seen several miracles,
especially through service. Early last week, we met Christine while
knocking on doors offering service. She didn't need anything, but she
referred us to her friend Sandy whose mother just passed away. We
called Sandy, who promptly invited us over and said, "I have one
question: where is my mother now?" We read from Alma 40 with her and
were able to answer her question, and she's invited us back to teach
more, and she referred us to her father. We'll be teaching both
Christine and Sandy this week, and we hope to get in touch with
Sandy's father today. Yay!
On Saturday we went to the home of Jane--a returning member--and her
daughter Amanda--who belongs to a different church but is very
supportive of her mother--to do yardwork. We were raking leaves on
what might have been the windiest day of the year when we met Andy,
who lives in the apartment in their home. We chatted briefly and
invited him to church, which he said he'd consider. A bit later as we
were leaving we saw him again. Jane offered a ride to church, and he
readily committed to come. Sure enough, he was there yesterday and
stayed for all 3 hours! He's been religion hopping for a while, and
is curious about what we believe, so we hope to start teaching him
this week.
Alas, time allows only such a a small sampling of the great things
that are happening here, but we are truly seeing miracles. I love it
here; we're working hard, we love the people, and there are great
things in store. Have a great week!
