September 30, 2013

Yes, sign me up for Team Wes! I'm praying for you my friend, keep it up. 

We had a good week here in Sherbrooke. Lets start with the super positive:   Gabrielle didnt come to church (again... she had some school project) but Jeremie did!! Hes doing really well. When we visited them this week, he said he didnt understand 2Ne2 when they read it together, but then as we finished it and discussed it together, it started to work on him. Hes really starting to see the Spirit in his own life. Awesome! 
Carol is doing really well. She came to church, and even stayed for the ward linger-longer and brought two of her grandchildren hah. Shes slowing down her cigarette intake, which is wonderful. She just seems so much happier now than when we first met her, which is a good sign. She's committing her self to it. 

But, this week Chantal dropped us. We saw her on Thursday, everything was perfect, and she was committed to come again, but then she must have talked to some friends between then and Saturday, because Saturday she told us she's done, and wouldn't explain why. The biggest thing Ive seen here in Quebec is this problem, talking to friends or families who scare our investigators away. So, we're going to try to work on how to help them know how to deal with these situations when they come up. So we're going to give her a couple weeks, and then try her again. Im sure she'll talk to us more next time.

I've been really grateful for the sacrament recently, the power of it. I love the commitments we make through baptism and the sacrament, that we can be renewed in our efforts, and even forgiven for our shortcomings. Its so great!!

Love you all so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ill keep praying for you, keep it up. I think I need to put more exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (huh Brandon?)

Love
Elder Murphy, Austin.



Stay strong.
