WEEK 22

Hello, everyone!

 

Well, I finally have more than three minutes to write so I thought that I would let you all know how things are going in Petaluma. This past Saturday and Sunday was General Conference. The messages were all very uplifting, inspiring, and thought provoking. I would like to share an experience from the Friday, April 1st, that made it all the more better.

 

I had the priviledge of meeting with an investigator named Jeremy Cooper. He's been taught for some time now. His hangup is that he considers himself to be an agnostic-atheist. Jeremy wants to know whether God is truely there or not. The problem is that he does not want to be "fooled" by his feelings or emotions. He has an experiment, which would take some time to explain, as to how he may come to know the truthfulness of our message.

 

As our appointment ended, we promised him that if he were to watch General Conference that he would receive some guidance as to how he can take the next step forward in coming to know God and that he may even receive some inspiration on what he may want to include or subtract from this experiment of his.

Three people at conference spoke on our relationship with God in one way or another. Some spoke on how a witness rarely comes instantaniously or miraculously. We will meet with him on Friday and better understand what might have inspired him. We are also meeting with some other great people I hope to tell you more about next week.

 

Again, my time is short. Those 11 minutes I once had are now down to 30 seconds. I love you all and wish you all a great week. Take great care! 'Til then.
