Here is the reply that I got, weird how the *understand* in the last paragraph is all accented characters...Also I added the colors that the message showed up in in my email.

Greetings. We are sorry about your difficulties, we do not have as many representatives in as many locations as we had in the past. We can serve as your representative at the moment.

I hope that I can help you in your struggles to find enlightenment, and I know that the best joy will find you if you continue on in pursuit of our truth.

I know that there is a way to be pure again and use the gifts of the Glass Heaven that have been given to us in a just way, and if you'll join us, we can train you in these gifts
.

The greatest of all is life in enlightenment. I hope and pray that you will continue to seek out enlightenment through your entire life.

If you have any questions about how to begin on your path, please do not hesitate to write again, but üǹđěŕšŧäǹđ that only you can start on this path. We cannot do it for you. You must have the desire.

JoyPurity Life

Greetίngs. We are sorry about your difficulties, we do not have as ₥any reṗresentatives in as many lόcations aṡ we had in the paṡt. We can serve as your representatίve at the moment.

The rest of the message is the same but without any more accents on any words.

Interesting, so we have (unaccented cause i'm lazy):

From Stuart133 = i m p o s s i
Prophet = u n d e r s t a n d

Oh shiny, the plot thickens...Ok, so I think at least right now that the accented letters are the ones that are going to spell out a message, we just need to get more information as more people get responses we'll add more and see if we can piece a message together (I think the accents are just telling us which characters to take out of the whole message IMHO).

Perhaps Romanised forms of different alphabets? Found [url] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_(diacritic)[/url] about the dots above the letters ... not sure about the m with a slash through it

The letters are m, p, o, s, and s. Part of the word "impossible"? Maybe it will spell a message if more people get replies?

Anyway, is it possible that the second block of each encoded message uses a different method than the first? I made my own little chart of possible characters based off the pattern shown in the first letter, and most of the “verified” letters matched up. But I still get nothing on the second parts. I mean, with this newest letter, how can “E” be a word on its own?

Actually the letters are imposs, hit preview on a reply and it will show the code such as &#<number> and you can see exactly which characters are not straight ASCII.

The message could be ROT'ed again, making the alphabet we have worked out different for that message.

Oh and no luck on the phone number, just got a reply from Will.

EDIT: How many people have actually sent emails to the church? I think we need more accented letters

Sorry that came of a bit snarkier than I had intended, my apologies.

I'm starting to think that the second block may be coded differently too, unless it is not in english.

Oh, I understand. It's hard to have things come out like you want them to sound over the internet. Actually, adding to that, i noticed another accented "i" in the second "representatίve".

Good point.

Absolutely, I had the other i in the first post, but forgot it in the second, thanks! I edited the post to fix my oversight.

I sent another email off to the church asking for help on how to "begin on the path", though I suspect that the answer will become clear when we assemble the accented letters message ...

So this is my first taste of ARGs, and already I cant bring myself to go to sleep, and I'm getting sucked in by this creepy seeming church Razz
