Peter, 1.24.11

hey

Isaac and simeon i got your book marks! thank you so much!

Mom i'm doing amazing! thank you so much for the letter and your thoughts its so fun to hear what your studying and doing. we have reacently taught about the story in matt 8 we started by watching finding faith in Christ where there is a depiction of when they lowered the man with the palsy through the roof and Jesus told him his sins were forgiven him and only after forgiving his sins he healed him physically. its so amazing. we used this in the lesson that Christ can see the real problems and addresses things that may not even seem relavent to us but He Knows us personally, and will do what will help us most in the long run. 

 

so friday morning we woke up to the sound of rain hitting the window in our room and it wasn't just a slight pitterpatering on the window it was pounding on it and woke us all up more than once. and the lightning here is amazing! it was lighting up most of our room. it was the most real storm that has come through since i've been here. when we went out at about 1:00 friday afternoon it had mostly cleared up and we began trackting and after a couple hours the rain struck again and we just had to accept it and go and get wet. we ended up going to a part members home and taught a lesson while we waited out the remainder of the cloud burst. such is the wether in florida.

 

the church is true! and its Great to be in the service of the Lord!
