Letter #86 (July 26, 2010)

We had a good week. We are having trouble with getting into the homes of many of our investigators. They have been many re-scheduling of appointments. It seems like there is always something that pops up with our investigators to cause them to reschedule. Either they're out of town, facing difficult trials with family members, or something else. Stephen Brown is working a lot and we haven't been able to teach him. He did come to church on Sunday. But he has an addiction to cigarrettes which has plagued him for the last 15 years. He's also still recovering from his wife's miscarriage. I'll keep you updated on his status.

We were still able to find new investigators and witness some big miracles. There is a lady in her 40's who we contacted on Saturday morning outside her apartment complex. She said that she use to get literature sent to her home from our church. We found out that the literature was actually from another church. But that prompted the thought that she has been searching for something spiritually. We asked her if she feels that in the last few years she has been searching for what is true. She said yes. We then explained to her that we prayed the night before to know where we should go this morning, and that God led us to her path. She paused for a little while. She then said that she prayed the night before for God to send her someone in her path to touch her heart. She then had tears in her eyes. She then exclaimed that she had chills run down her body. She started to thank the Lord publically. She then went towards us and with her big arms, grabbed both of us and gave us one hug. She was deeply touched. And so were we. God is a God of miracles!
