Montréal-Est Week 15

Exchanges with Elder Brough
This past week was great! Lots of miracles, and we have a lot of people that have been progressing fast. It's been super cool to see some success from our efforts recently! Here are some cool highlights from the week!

We had a TON of people come to church on Sunday, it was insane! One of them, Bordeaux (who is a newer investigator), absolutely loved it and never wants to go to another church again! He will be baptized soon for sure. We also had Maxi come, who is the fiancé of one of our members. He used to be getting ready to be baptized in another church, and didn't understand much about Priesthood authority or anything, but for some reason everything clicked and now he wants to be baptized too! We are so excited!

Jhonel looked like a missionary at church on Sunday,
so I gave him my name tag to  make it complete!
He's super excited to serve a mission!
We had an awesome lesson with a new investigator named Blaise (I think I may have talked about him before) the other day as well. He is SO legit. We read in the Book of Mormon with him, and he absolutely LOVED it! He even got out notes and things to mark the book as we were reading; it was an awesome experience. It was super cool!

We also had the opportunity to go on exchanges with the Elders from St. Jérôme and Repentigny this week. It was super fun, I was able to go with Elder Eggenberger and Elder Brough, respectively. It was cool to be able to learn from them and receive advice. It's always great to have another perspective! It was also really cool with Elder Brough, we saw tons of miracles on our exchange. We had a chance to go some quick service for a member, but we were a little early so we decided to knock some doors for only like 5 minutes. It wasn't a good time to knock at all, and we totally could have done something else more productive, but we both just decided to do it anyway. After only a couple of doors, someone opened up and invited us in right away! We got to teach the whole restoration, and he loved it! He was super excited to meet with us again.

Anyway it's been such a cool week, it's always awesome to start seeing people progress. We hope it continues!! I hope you all have an amazing week, I love you all so much!
