Anyukám és családom,
What a week you all had. I can't believe Zach's farewell is
coming up. That is super fast.
My week was pretty awesome. I was a able to find quite a few
people.
A few weeks ago I knocked on a guy's door as he was
showering. I know this because he stuck his head out the window and it was
covered in shampoo, and he told us to try later. So we did. Then he said he
wasn't interested, but probably his wife was, and to come back in a week. So we
did. His wife let us in, and sat us down with his daughter, and asked how she
could help us. I told her to listen for 20 minutes, and then I taught the 1st
lesson, I gave a BOM, and the daughter prayed. Family as investigators?
YES!!!
Next stop another house we tracted. We rang, and old lady
came out, she said no, so we moved on. The typical ya know? As we were talking
to the next guy at the next house, a younger lady stuck her head out from the
door we were just at and asked us, "Are you mormons?" I said yes, so
the guy we were talking to went inside, but the lady told us to come in, so we
did. There we found out that she had a husband, and they had met with
missionaries in England for a few months, and come here to Hungary to get
married so they can get married. We also found out that because of life, they
had gotten a little sidetracked from that goal. New investigators? Yep.
Next stop English Class. Some Young woman (found out later
she was 27) came to English class. She was smilely (not normal here) and
excited about things, and at the end of English class she looked at some of the
pamphlets we have on display at a table. I was distracted because there were like
five people (I will admit it. They were all girls) that wanted me to play the
piano for them. So I did, but meanwhile I told my companion to go talk to her.
That brave new missionary went and talked to her about the stuff, so once I
finished showing off, I was able to come over and join the better thing of
life, which is sharing the gospel. We ended up getting in a conversation with
her for 2 hours about the gospel and everything, and at the end this strong
catholic girl accepting the challenge to read the BOM and to pray about it. It
was super cool to talk to someone that was so real, and honest about things.
She will be a fun investigator to have.
Gyöngyi is still doing really well. She is progressing, and still
making steps toward baptism. Keep on praying for her :)
