Belgium - Week 39 (Liege)

11/18/13
 
Hello everyone!
I had an interesting week! The miracles started right after I finished emailing last Monday. After emails, while we were on our way to the grocery store, I heard someone yell "Attendez, les garçons" which means "Wait, boys!"
I turned around and saw an African lady running after us and pushing a stroller. Her name was Lou, a young mother from the Cote d'Ivoire. We talked to her for a little bit and found out she was baptized a member of the church in Africa, but then lost contact with the church when she moved up to Belgium. Its kind of a long story of how and why she came to Belgium, but because of her tough living situation she wasn't able to find the church here in Liege. 
Which explains her reaction when she saw us. We were able to get her contact information, visit her later in the week with a member, and then she came to church yesterday!
She was so, so, so happy to finally be able to go to church again. She had been hoping and praying for something to help her with all the trials she is going through right now and the Lord provided!
Another miracle!
This ones small, but really cool. To make another long story short. Elder Aleccia and I got on a wrong train this week and then missed the train we needed to take back to liege. We were stranded outside of Liege and had no way of getting back... There was a train that was going to come by really late that we had to take. 
On the train that took us back to liege we ran into an old investigator (a really cool, married father of 3) who we've been trying to get a hold of for a long time. He actually saw us, came up to us and we were able to set up an appointment with him. I didn't know why we were on that train at the time but now I know why! We needed to be there to see him.
I love you guys, have an awesome week!
Elder Davis
