Good morning!
Groningen is doing great! It was a little rough with
investigators, but we have found some new people, so that is nice. We spend a
lot of time finding this week, and it was really fun, even if we didn't see a
lot of solid investigators come from it. I worked really hard this week on not
letting people get away with weak excuses on the door, while being extremely
nice and polite, of course. If they were willing to listen, I just kept on
talking to help them understand the importance of Joseph Smith and the fact
that he saw God and Jesus Christ. It amazed me how many people could be
confronted with a solid argument and a personal testimony and say that it is
cool but that they don't think it is for them, or one of the many different
ways of just saying no. These people are really really hard-hearted... But
there are people who are ready and willing to listen so we are going to keep
searching. We did find 3 new investigators, so we hope we can help them
progress.
All of our investigators who were progressing dropped off of
the map, so we hope we can find them again, but I think they are purposefully
avoiding us. We were pretty bold with our purpose last week, with love of
course, but I think it scared them off. That includes Sander (the deaf
investigator I talked about last week), and a couple others.

Last P-day we went to a Pannenkoeksschip! So we ate some
tasty Dutch pannenkoeken on a boat.
We also climbed Martini Toren. That was pretty cool It is
super old and it was over 300 steps.
Love,
Elder Thornton
