Keep on Buidling....

Well, if last week was a tough week, this week was even harder. Boy this was really a tough one. It's just one of those weeks that you have so much planned for, but it just all falls apart on you even when you do your best in the area.

It was just a week full of fall throughs. We had appointments set, but for the most part people didn't keep their commitments and we got our whole week messed up because of that. 

We came up with a new method of tracting though. When we tract, we usually introduced ourselves and explained what we did and try setting an appointment. Now, we decided to briefly teach about the Restoration and invite to share more about it in a future appointment. We haven't had much success from it, but I get a better peace of mind doing it that way because the people we come into contact with actually know WHAT we believe in.

We did though get the chance to teach one new investigator this last week. We were tracting on Saturday in Area 47, and a lady who we contacted actually invited us in to share more, and she was very enthusiastic too! Her name is Moire, and potentially we will be seeing her again this week. It is really exciting because she was really receptive to us and was really grateful that we were doing missionary work like this. She even gave us a referral. We may just progress with her, but time will tell. That said, it really is great to see fruits from your labours. That's the catch about finding ideal investigators sometimes: You have to invest a lot of work, time and effort just to get a small taster of success. Really, it's going to take a lot to really get things going well for us, but at least that experience gave us a glimmer of hope!

Best of wishes everybody!
