When your brain is mush, so you can't think of anything creative to title the email...

So, this week has been crazy and dull at the same time! But Some highlights...
Eric! We found Eric last week. But, he made sure we knew that he was Catholic. But, we made him and his two roommates, Minor and David, investigators and we set up a time to come again. When we came, only Eric was there! But the COOLEST thing. Where last time he was not super solid, he had completely changed. In his broken english, he told us about how, when we left the time before, he had felt differently. That we had mentioned prayer, and how prayer can give us the answers that we need. So he prayed. He prayed about his family. He prayed about his religion. He. Just. Prayed. And, as he was tearing up, he told us about how God had answered him, and that he knew he was supposed to meet with us. When we first arrived to our return appointment, we were a little late. And he had sat by the door, waiting for us to get there. So, he will be coming to church, and we will be meeting with him every Friday so that he can learn more about our church. It was one of the most amazing moments ever, where the Spirit was so strong! Sister Dalton and I were holding back tears after we got to the car! definitely a miracle!!


Me with some dinosaurs!!
