Dear Family,

Well this week wasn't a complete bust, we meet a whole lot of new people! we are constantly talking to people, and even though there aren't as many people on the streets of napanee like there are in the city, if you seek out people to speak to you find them. 

 ive learned alot recently about putting in the extra effort, i feel like i have been putting in the effort, but its in that moment when we put in more that is required not only do we see the work change for the better, but we see ourselves change too. I am so ready for this area to hit its peak and it will be there soon, we are just building its foundation right now. and in doing so i have also learned that working with the branch leaders and having a good relationship with them is important one set up of trust and understanding, we are working on that, seems like it may have been a bit rough in the past but it will get there. So much good is happening and there isnt a moment to rest!!

we lost two of our investigators this week, but have lots of appointments to meet new people, so we are excited for a new week. in that process of meeting people we met a man the other day who is from another religion, hes very strong is his beliefs and i admire that of him, he honestly felt like he was doing what was right and there was no convincing him even show him the evidence, i took my thoughts from that contact to heavenly father and asked him to confirm to me that what i had said was right and correct and in doing so i came across 2 nephi chapters 29 and 30 everything that man said was the filling of those words, it was an incredible experience for heavenly father to confirm that the missionary work we are doing is his work. The church is true God DOES love his children!

I hope you all are well, Love you all tons!!

Love Sister Hadley
