Miracles

I am doing great! 

We didn't receive a call from President Peterson on Tuesday 
so that means that I will be here in Metz for another 6 
weeks with Elder McKnight!  Although I do like to travel 
around and see new places, I love Metz, which is 
argumentatively the most beautiful city in the mission 
architecture wise, and I love Elder McKnight, and 
I am excited to continue the upward trend of work we 
have been having here in Metz!  
We had so many miracles this week, too many to write about!  
I can't tell you how many people stopped us on the street 
and asked us to tell them about what we are doing and 
about our church; it was great!

One instance in particular was on Saturday, when we had 
a scheduled rendez-vous with a less active who had bailed 
on us the last 4 times.  On our way there we 
felt inspired to call a former ami who had also bailed 
on the previous 4 rendez-vous; but, he answered and we 
set one up for an hour after our rendez-vous with Albert, 
the less active. Well, we got to Albert's and he was 
there, with two people he wanted us to teach!  So we 
shared a lesson on the atonement and added the two 
women there as amis!  Then, as we walked to our 
other sketchy rendez-vous, a man stopped us in the road 
and asked us if we had another Bible.  After explaining 
that no, we believe in the Bible, but we also 
have another book of Scripture, the Book of Mormon, 
we asked if we could come in and talk more and he said yes!  
That really doesn't happen here.  We talked about 
the restoration as he poured us glass after glass of coke!  
It was amazing.  We have another rendev-vous with him and 
his wife, they are both Portuguese, this Thursday!  
Things like that have been happening all week and there 
is no other way to explain it but miracles from God!  
I am so lucky to be able to be doing this work!

Our car broke down and we had to have it fixed.

I will be writing you this Monday because that will be my 
new preparation day, so, if you would like to write 
on Sunday that would be great!
