Mon. July20

Hey, thanks for the email, sorry you had to use a psp.
Thats good Molly is doing good and getting some exercise.
Did you all have fun at Disney World? Things have been
really exciting here... and super busy. This last week
alone we got 5 new investigators. We even have a new
baptismal date named T.J. Teaching him will be especially
hard, he doesn't really believe in God or that he helps
people, but wants to and wants to change his life.
Please pray for him. Then theres Marra, Laura,Erika, and
Brother Petricek (not really a member but his wife is and
hes pretty much a dry Mormon). The funny thing is the
last 4 all live on the same street. So looks like we're
going to have another awsome week. O, when we were on
that street about to find Marra I got 2 doors slamed in
my face(thats a first for me)! It was funny. The second
one was hilarious. We knocked on the door and a lady
answers and immediatly says sorry I dont have time I
have a crying kid and I'm very busy. So my companion asks
'OK is there another time that would be better for you?'
She just stares blankly at us for a good 5 seconds then
slams the door. Apparently she didn't have a backup plan
:) But as the Lord says, 'ye recieve no witness until after
the trial of your faith.' Also another cool thing that
happened as we were trackting Marra's street was that her
little boy started following us down the street. When we
were next to their house he said something like 'come to
our porch next,' so we did and Marra was there ready to
hear what we had to say. My companion told President
Barret that and he made the remark 'wouldn't it be cool
if that little boy grew up to be a missionary.'

So everything is going great; nice weather, its car week,
good people to teach, haven't been held at gun point....yet.

Love you Elder Julian.
