Hey Family,
I had a feeling that President Jarvis would get released pretty soon because
he's been in that calling for a long time. We're still trying to get to see his
mother and law but she's super busy and it's hard to catch her. But we'll keep
working with her because she's super nice so we'll see what we can do when we
start inviting her to keep commitments. We actually just picked up a family the
other day and they seem super solid. The mother is super nice. She's a non-practicing Muslim from Africa and she speaks a bit of french because she lived in
Quebec City for a little while. She has one 15 year old son and I can see them
both joining the church in the near future.
We also got a huge dump of snow the other day...It was crazy! In the morning
it was super nice out and it was actually raining a bit and then it started
snowing and didn't stop all day. We walked though that day and it's always nice to
be out of the car and meeting all kinds of people throughout the day. That's how
we met Chee Wee actually, we just street contacted into him. It's funny because I
always remind him of that day and he always tells me how crazy it was.
Oh and the members are feeding us really well in this area, we actually have
a member that calls members of the ward to feed us and fills our calenders with
meeting members of the ward and helping them with their missionary work. Of
course there are the occasional few who don't want anything to do with
missionary work but we just keep inviteing them. So far we have one solid family
that help the whole stake out with missionary work. Arbour Lake ward actually
baptized a family because of this family in our ward which was exciting to hear.
But overall the work here is moving along and this other member helped us out
with this cool finding tool that we actually found one man with it but we just
need to get back to him. The tool we used though was a flyer that we placed all
over our area and it has a scanning code on it and when they scan it it brings
them straight to our phone number and calls us. So we got a call from a man
named Matthew and he told us he'd be interested in our message. We're also going to
start making another flyer that has our stop smoking program on it so we can
help people and maybe find some new investigators.
Well that's about it for this week!
Love you guys!
Elder Justin Gagnon
