The Book of Mormon is true!

FAMBAM!

 

We had a great week! The weather was sure weird, and we certainly had some weird experiences (as always), but it was much better than last week! Which is cool, because last week was hard, but in the end wasn't so bad! Also... All of our cool stuff this week revolved around the Book of Mormon. Which is cool.

Ib. is progressing slowly but surely. He came to a fireside that we had on Tuesday by a BYU professor about DNA research as related to the Book of Mormon. He's a doctor (he studied for six years in Guinea) and so he seemed pretty interested in all of the biology-related stuff that was talked about. I loved the fireside - basically, the conclusion was that the Book of Mormon can be neither proven nor disproven through DNA research because the odds that DNA is at all the same as then is little to none, and that the only way to truly know is to read it and to pray to know for ourselves. We liked that - that's what we've been trying to get Ib. to do! He reads it but I'm not sure he's been praying about it yet.

Ro. is another one of our investigators and she's doing so well. She has so many great questions and really wants to know everything! She's been reading in the Book of Mormon and understands it pretty well which is cool! The Spirit is really strong in her lessons and I think that there's potential for things with her to go pretty quickly!

Ha. is also doing well. He's starting to TRULY make connections between the Bible and Book of Mormon. He loves the Joseph Smith Translation. He found it on lds.org and he's been reading it and sharing things with us.

 

Me. is also back! Still excited about her baptism in October. We'll meet with her tomorrow.

So cool miracle - we were getting our bikes out of the garage where we park them (for free! woohoo!) at the station and one of the guys that works there started talking to us! Turns out he talked to the elders a few months ago and they said they'd bring him a Book of Mormon and never did. So we gave him one and we're meeting with him soon! It was super cool.

 

IIII love you all. Until next week!

 

Love,

Sister Anjewierden

 

PS I saw pictures of FSY (european EFY) this week and it made me want to be a counselor. Haha. Maybe next year?
