Mission Work in Moncton

Salut mes chums,
(Rue Argyle in Moncton)


This week was a good one. We are still hunting for investigators, but Saturday we were able to find one. He is a 64 year old Catholic. We met with him after calling him (he was a former investigator) and we had hands down the best first lesson in the history of first lessons. He asked us to keep coming back, included by saying everyday, and he read the testimonies, introduction 4 times in one day. We will be meeting with him today at 7:00 and we are stoked.
We have been working a lot, (since we got to Dieppe) with the members especially the less active or part member families, and one in particular is from the Congo. They started coming back to church and their son will be getting baptized soon:) they will be meeting with the bishop to talk about when. FYI he is not a convert, he is 8.5 years old, but he will bring his family with him into activity:)
We have really realized how big a role the members play in the progression of missionary work. Missionaries cannot work effectively without them and we have witnessed it. The members here in Moncton are fantastic. They have a huge desire to help others either come unto Christ for the first time, or help them return. When the members are doing their missionary work, which is being an example, and inviting people to learn more, the work hastens.
Not too much to say this week other than that:) oh and we accidentally broke and fixed a snowblower... we got snowed on again. We have the record for most snow in Moncton history since 1930! Love ya!
