It's finally sunny around here! Well, most of the time anyway. It's been going from cloudy to sunny, but at least there hasn't been rain for a few days. It seems like it's harder on people to have this mild chill and lots of rain, than it is to have it be freezing cold and all snowy. I know I've been feeling kind of sick for the last few days, and it seems like everybody that we talk to is sick too. You'd think that living here your whole life would make you at least a little bit resilient to the weather 'n such. Guess not. New Zealanders must just be really sissy :)
Not a load of things different this week, but we did get two new investigators. They were a bit of a surprise to me, because they're dairy farmers, and are extremely wealthy. For the most part, people on that side of town or out there in the country don't like to talk to us. They're all comfortable where they are and they don't want to change. It was really nice to be able to meet a couple that has everything they could want as far as material comforts go, but are still open to hearing the gospel. Another thing that really surprised me was that they're a little bit older. Mid 50s. For the most part, the older people get, the less inclined they are to talk with us. It seems the younger the person is, the higher the likelihood they'll be open to talking to us, and learning about our beliefs. I'm going to chalk this one up to a tender mercy of the Lord.
Other than that, not a whole bunch to report, but I do have pictures!
