Great week in Gouda! Last full week of the transfer and its going to be the best ever! Here is a story from us this week!:

 

Miracle of the week! Kind of a long story so lets see how i can type this out.. President De Jonge shared this at priesthood session of stake conference in Rotterdam.  The De Jonges went to a pinkster service in Moordrecht after praying to have missionary opportunities.  There they met a super friendly lady who wanted to make them feel comfortable at her church.  They started a simple relationship from there and started saying hi after school and such.  The De Jonges then decided to fast specifically for ways that they could share the gospel with this woman.  They saw each other once more at school and this lady told them that they should get together for coffee and chat! Exciting! Then the best part.  Sister Garnder and I left an appointment in Gouda and saw this lovely lady walk out of her house and stand on the curb. So of course, we rode on over and started up a conversation.  It was a great contact and we felt uplifted but she had her own church and we left it at that.  Sunday we found out that this was the lady that the De Jonges were fasting and praying about.  She called Sister De Jonge so excited and told her that she just met two wonderful young ladies from her church and that she had just happened to walk outside at that time and she never does that! She said it was no coincidence and that she just loved our questions and conversation and kept saying that it was no coincidence! oohh how the Lord works through us! The De Jonges are uplifted, we are uplifted and this woman has more interest than ever in learning about the gospel!

 

till next week!
