Excerpts from Mom's email:

So yeah this week was pretty good, but I can tell it is still in a rut... Each day is different and has it's different experiences, but at the same time hear and see the same stuff quite a bit. My new companion has made things a lot more interesting that is for sure! Finding is pretty crack up now because he reminds me of myself when I first started out. I can tell now I am a little bit seasoned and have come a long way since when I first arrived hear and it is cool to see. Training has its challenges of coarse, but nothing I can't handle because the Lord blesses his servants. I am starting to notice that more and more as well.

Remember how I said finding has become a little more interesting lately? Well we have had some interesting experiences this week that I want to mention. So just a few days ago, we were door knocking for a few hours and we were off to our last door not seeing much success. Coming to the end of the street, I see that there is another locked gate ahead (I hate those). When we walked past, we just barely see a man walk out and sit down out front so we start talking to him and come to find that he isn't to into it. All of a sudden, a miracle happens! That very moment a WHITE DOVE descended right in between us and him and he says "Wow, never in my life have a seen something like that... That's a sign of peace.. you blessed me!" It was really crazy how fast his attitude changed. If you remember the story when Christ was Baptized, what descended as a sign? If that is not a sign for someone that we are the Lords servants, idk what is. He acknowledged all of this and you know what happened? He then told us he is not ready to change... It seriously reminded of me of Laman and Lemuel. Still we were really blessed to see something like that, because it helped show me that it isn't because of me that we see rejection! I have felt discouraged sometimes feeling that when we see rejection, it is because I didn't contact them right or say the right thing. However in a tender mercy, the Lord corrected my thinking. We are the Lords servants, this is a true fact! We speak the truth! Just because people say we are not or reject us, that does not change truth. Truth Never Changes!

Love you heaps Mom! Have a good week!
