Ronnie got Glasses!?!? What!?! That`s
crazy!
Sorry this is on Tuesday. Yesterday was a
Quebec holiday so we moved p-day to tuesday for this week so we could still buy
groceries. Tell Cade that I am extremely excited to hear about his call. I got
an e-mail from Andrew (college roomate who is still 17 and attending BYU still)
that this incoming class at BYU is 3000 students rather than the usual 5500 and
only 1 out of every 3 is a guy. Truly the world is being flooded with
missionaries.
Not too much new stuff this week. Still working
with our investigators. Gabrielle now has a date for the 19th of October. We
have a new investigator named Chantal. We found her when it was 8:30 and we had
just finished making some calls and doing some pass-byes. We decided to knock
for the last couple minutes before we had to head home. For some reason we
decided to start this massive appartment building. We climbed to the top,
knocked the first door and it was some college guy who didn`t really want to
talk. The second door was Chantal. She is a middle-aged woman living alone and
struggling with some powerfull addictions. She really wants to learn about
Christ and follow his teachings. She knows Christ can help her with her
problems, but feels like she needs more faith. We gave her Alma 32 and she
loved it. She understands the metaphor with the seed perfectly. We have a lot
of hope for her (she is also meeting with the Jehova`s Witnesses, but she told
us she doesn`t like what they teach. Man those guys are everywhere in
Quebec).
I get better and better at French each day. I
can make myself understood pretty consistantly now, and I often times can
understand what`s going on. I wish French had the possesive form (``Bob`s
boat`` is ``the boat of Bob`` or ``Le bâteau de Bob``) Before long I`ll be able
to understand what`s going on at sacrament meeting.
We are trying to reduce our knocking and focus
on member work and less-active work. We believe that this will bring us more
referals and more solid investigators.
I know this gospel is true. Every day is a
witness to me that I am working on the Lord`s errand. I love you all.
BYE!!
Elder Hardy
Oh and we had my first Transfer calls on
Saturday. No changes.
