This week was really great! We have really caught the vision of finding the lost sheep and have been making it our go to activity. We have been using the baptismal records that President Doru made and it has been really cool to see the blessings that have come. We were planning on finding one member late in the evening a week or so ago and didn't feel right about it and so we went a different way and found someone else. We saw that night that God had had another plan for us but still wanted to find the original member. So this week we ended up going during the day to his house. When we went there he wasn't home but we got to meet his exwife and his grandkids. The wife gave us information on where her other children live (all of which are members) and told us they would all be glad to meet us. They were a really sweet family and wanted us to come back. We then went back on Sunday and got to meet one of the sons (the father of the little kids) and his cute wife. He talked about reading the Book of Mormon and all the blessings that he had received from God as he was coming to church. We set up a day to meet with Marian and Alexandra and their two little kids. I know that God lead us to them. We are so excited to teach Marian again and Alexandra and her kids for the first time and help them to come unto Christ. We also feel really good about the other members of the family all across the city and can't wait to visit them as well. Other than our work with the lost sheep we have continued to find wherever we are and we have been blessed to meet a lot of great people. We met a sweet lady named Daniela who has really been prepared for the Gospel. We got to meet with her this last week and she is already reading and really excited about the Book of Mormon. She has a lot of questions but also has a lot of faith and is willing to listen. It will really help her as she is searching for answers. Something else that was really amazing this week was that I got the chance to talk to Lorena from Cluj! I haven't had the chance to call her since I got here but she got my number and called me. She told me that she is reading the Book of Mormon every day and that it has been such a blessing to her. She said that God has given her a new life. I am so grateful for the blessing that this Gospel and what it means in these people's lives and that I am blessed to see it changing them.
Love Sora James
