Okay, I just got done chatting with Taryn through e-mails a few seconds ago. very cool!! she is an awesome missionary!
so this week was very interesting. We had zone conference on Wed. and it was so good! We talked about how important The Book of Mormon is in our contacts. So what we did is that our President gave us these big posters with the picture where Jesus came to the Americas and we go talk to people about that. And instead of contacting just focusing on getting their address or phone number we focus on giving them a Book of Mormon. He said if you dont feel the urge to ask for their number, dont! Just give them The Book of Mormon with my testimony and an invitation to read and pray to know if it is true. It is so cool to see the difference. We have so much more success when we focus on helping these people and not just numbers to send in to our leaders. It is so cool to see people walking down the street with B.o.M.'s in their hand.
So this week we found one new investigator. She is sweet! her name is Jessy. She has a baptismal date for the 14th of August. It is going to be alot of work to get her there but she is ready. She wants it. She has been searching. We also got into contact with the brother of a member named Charles-Henri. His only problem is the word of wisdom. He has been taught for the past year or 2. He knows ALOT about the gospel. We set a date for him to stop smoking Aug. 8 and for him to be baptized for the end of Aug. He is very ready.
Still no news on the date for Vanessa's wedding. She is still awesome though. She brought Benoit (her fiancé) to church yesterday and it was so good!! We are having a family home evening at the church (like every Monday night) but we are having a crèpes party!! I am so excited! we have quite a bit of people coming too. I will take some pics mom dont worry.
Well happy birthday to all the birthdays last week and this week! July is always nuts with the birthdays! Hope you all had a fun time! I am going to write my mommy now but thanks for all the support you all give me!
Peace!
