WOW. i have been out for a long time. things are great still. Sister
Chirchir says hello to everyone.
we were teaching a seventh day adventist the other day, ironically she used
to be a seventh day adventist herself. threfore she could relate so well to
him. it was a very interesting lesson to sit in on. it wasn't the first time
she has shared her experience of conversion with a member of the sda faith.
normally when they hear that she changed to become a "mormon" they say she
is lost and decieved. in that lesson we were able to find the man is
actually rather prepared, we gave him a baptismal date, and when he heard
the story it was like someone turned on the lights in his brain. he
understood the whole thing and what was greater, he felt the truth of what
she said. turns out he has been studying our literature, especially the
lesson pamphlets that he inherited (found on the ground) from his house
mate. i guess sister chirchir uses her story to test the preparedness of the
people we teach. this man passed the test
a muslim investigator i taught with sister clendon was baptized this week! i
am learning more and more that the true gospel of christ doesn't care who
you are, or what religion you are. it is the truth, and if you aren't living
it, you must re-adjust your path. also, there are prepared people everywhere
to receive the gospel. keep looking and you will find em! God is great, the
gospel is true, please pray for me that i can learn scriptures better.
the diet is going great, i have lost 7 kg's! only a few hundred more to go
;)
please keep praying for the missionaries out there, they need your help.
