Hello!
Thanks everyone for the emails! I really love hearing from you! Sounds like you are living fun, fabulous lives! I hope you realize how much i love you! So guess what? Im still here! And I am still with Sister van den Bosch! Crazy eh? Yeah its unheard of in this mission for sisters to be together for three transfers...but....the Lord knows best! Also the Lord answers prayers and Deanna, Sis. Lebrun, Sammy, and Sherry(our best friends here) all told us that they have been praying that we would both stay! Isnt that great? and apparently the Lord still has plans for us here. We have a lot of fun together....and though we are very different we each have strengths where the others weaknesses are so we work very effectivley together.
So 6 months in Port Coquitlam! Can you belive it? I just love the people here and we have many progressing investigators so it's best that we both stay here to help them along!
So.... we are teaching Patricks friend Taylor at the LeBruns house. He really likes learning and going to church. And we had a little neat miracle. Patrick lost his moms cell phone trick or treating and after our lesson the next day with Taylor, Sis. Lebrun asked me to pray for them to find it. We did and then left and a half hour later they called us and someone had called them to return the phone that they found! So it was really neat because Taylor, and the LeBruns were all able to see the power of prayer! God is amazing!
We will be teaching Davids friend Sam, with his family tonight! They have had missionaries before so the seed has been planted...The father is from Nicaragua and the mother is Italian! NeatI willl let you know how it goes....

We are also teaching a family from Mexico.....the spirit was so strong the last time we were there! Wow! We are praying for them to find thier answer....you can to... Arturo, Rosa, and Sara Ortega.
We found out from President that we have to call Salt Lake to get permission before any Muslims are baptised because thier family back in Iran under law is supposed to kill anyone in thier family that converts....this is very serious business and we have to be very careful..... So as you can tell we teach such a variety of people! it is so neat! I just love people! Well i wish i had time to tell more stories..... I love you !
Love, Sister Flake
