Who Needs Google Maps When You Got The Holy Ghost?

Hey everyone! Hope everyone had a great week! This week was exciting! Here's what happened:


Highlights:
- P-day in Victoria with all the Elders there! Got to stop by Le Belle Patate to have some great Poutine and see Matti(the fire member that owns the place)!
- Exchange with Elder Gonçalves! He is a brand new Elder from France! He is sick and has a super strong testimony!
- Our friend Wes & our new friend Shane!
- We were able to start up Volleyball Nights!
- We met a lot of Members this week and set up lots of lessons for next week!
- Miracle with our friend Amir!
- Found some pretty cool picture spots!

Lowlights: 
- Its been 3 weeks into the transfer already and it feels like I got here a week ago haha its going so fast!

Wes & Shane: Wes is our referral friend we got last week, and we were able to teach him and he is SOO elect! He has the desire to change, and to grow his relationship with Heavenly Father! After our first lesson, his friend Shane was talking with Wes and said he wanted to meet with us! Yesterday we taught both Shane & Wes! Shane is going through a hard time, everyone please pray for him🙏. But it was a SUPER spiritual lesson! Shane also has that desire for change and to grow his relationship with Heavenly Father! AND... Wes was able to bear his growing testimony to Shane! Them progressing off of each other is incredible! They are going to start coming to church together too!

Amir: A few days ago, we were driving to the church to do some social media work, when I recieved a prompting to go Street Contacting. The Spirit persisted, so I told Elder Walcer, and we went Street Contacting! What's crazy is the Spirit told me to go to the park downtown, and even GUIDED my driving! We got there without the aid of Google Maps! Once we got there, we started walking around the park. Thats when I saw Amir, he was standing on the pier admiring the scenery. He was the FIRST person we talked to We! We walked up and started talking to him! He immediately sat us down, and we had an HOUR long lesson/discussion with him! The spirit was SOO strong! He wants to learn more and read the Book Of Mormon, however he is from Afghanistan, and him and his entire family is Muslim, so he can't meet with us :( But he is super spiritual and is SOO elect! Hopefully we can meet him again at the park!

Anyways, sorry its a bit shorter this week! But still the work goes on! The spirit guides others day by day! Have a great week everyone!
