Okay! So this week was pretty interesting! We've been teaching this guy named Randell (Who's actually sitting next to me at the public library right now). Don't worry he can't see my screen. So anyway, we've been teaching him and It's been hard for him to see that God loves him. He's been in accidents that have left his right side of his body mostly immovable and wears a few braces and limps everywhere. I've been able to relate to him on the physical pain aspect, which is why he's been willing to listen to us in the first place. We finally got him to read the book of mormon and he said that he would read it from start to finish! I was also able, through the promptings of the spirit, to promise his full recovery through time as he reads and prays daily. That was super cool!
I was also able to go on exchanges this week. Elder Cloward and I were tracting with a member who actually served in the same mission we served in! He had 52 baptisms while he was serving so we were trying to learn from him as much as he could. There was this lady who screamed at us and said "I DO NOT TALK TO MORMONS" and brother king was like "That's fine, we see that you're not ready to let Christ into your life. When you are ready, let us know."
And she absolutely freaked out at us! She was like 'NO NO NO you listen here! I read from the Torah and I am saved!" And he said "You wanna talk about it?"
Haha it was super funny!
Have a good week everyone!
