Miracles!

So it's been quite an amazing week this week! Elder Ozmun and I have been doing great still! It's been getting a little warmer, but it's still pretty cold, (usually below 0 Celcius), so we're trying to do other things than just talking to people on the streets. One thing we have been doing a bit this week is trying to visit inactive members. We got through all of the members in our area, and most of them didn't live at the same address anymore.

However, this week has been a week of miracles! First, we taught this guy for the first time who we talked to on a tram. He came to our meeting and the first thing he said was "I'm gonna be honest guys, the only reason I came is because..." which isn't usually something you usually like to hear at first. Continuing "...because when you talked to me, I could see you had a great spirit about you. I could tell you have a lot of faith to come all the way out here from America to do this". Which is something that was really awesome to hear! Probably one of the best things I've ever heard. He just accepted all the commitments we gave him and told us he would bring his mom to church! So come Sunday, he did bring his mom to church, and she brought her friend!!! That was a miracle if I've ever seen one. Just such prepared people. We will meet with him again this week!

Other miracle, also takes place on a tram. Saw this girl from Afrika, so of course I talked to her (sometimes it's nice to talk to people in English). Told her about our church, and invited her to hear more. She said probably not but took our card anyways. So Saturday night we get a phone call, and it was her friend! She had given our card to her friend who was calling to see if she could come to church on Sunday! So she came on Sunday as well. She is studying in Brno and is also from Afrika! Just such cool people we are meeting.

Our investigator, has been on volno all week (break from school), so we haven't seen him. He lives far and has been home. However, we are going to meet with him tonight! He is a great kid.

So I've been realizing that things don't always work out how we want them, but they work out how the Lord wants them. I'm glad to hear everyone is doing great, and I'm praying for you when I can! Hope you all have a great week! Love you all!
