We put a Book of Mormon on Facebook market place, and got ROASTED left & right. Look in the images attached to see my FAVORITE message.
THIS WEEK WE MET ETHEL.
I have no words for Ethel. She is everything good, brave, & wonderful in this world.
She RAN up to us while we were street contacting & BEGGED to meet with us.
Our first lesson with her was POWERFUL. The Spirit was just ENVELOPING us like a massive blanket! There wasn't a dry eye in the room. When we told her we had a Book of Mormon just for her, she was OVERWHELMED with gratitude.
Our next meeting with her was 2 days later. She told us she finally got the courage to leave her abusive husband YESTERDAY and he is now in jail. He was upset with her for meeting with us so he threatened her, but she said that NOTHING could stop her from studying the Book of Mormon with us.
She RAN from him while he was attacking her!! Her injuries were so bad she had to go to the hospital & the doctors wanted her to stay overnight, but she told them "no, I've got to study with my sisters!!!!!!"
With bruises and scars all over her poor body, Ethel bore her testimony to us of the love and peace she feels when she meets with us and when she reads the Book of Mormon.
I love her and her love of the gospel.
Also she told me I look like I should be an actress so that gives her bonus points for SURE.
While knocking on less active members doors we met CHRIS!! The member who had lived there moved years ago, but we were MEANT to meet Chris.
We taught him the restoration and this man's mind was BLOWN, "you guys just answered my question!!! You just came over and answered my question!!!" Apparently he's always wondered why there are so many churches. I love providing clarity for people.
So many people don't even REALIZE they are searching for the gospel!!! WE NEED TO HELP THEM FIND IT!
We got a little nervous at ULM the other day, so I channeled my inner ricciardi and JUMPED onto the nearest bench! Put my arms UP & yelled "I FEAR NO MAN!!!!!!!"
I highly recommend it.
The people around us thought I was crazy.... until we told them about the restoration!!!
Then they thought we were insane.
BUT we aren't here to make the Gospel likable!! We are just here to make it ATTAINABLE!!
Open your mouth.
