Hey everybody!!
So we had an awesome experience with a guy named Andrew this week! We were chilling at the door to sacrament meeting, the missionaries are the greeters here, and Brother Marsden from the ward comes over to us with a man in a rain coat and jeans. He introduces the man as Andrew and we invite him to sit with us through the meeting! He accepts so we go sit with him and have a goooood sacrament meeting (He LOVED the testimonies given!!) We had 3 baby blessing so there was an abnormally large body of people there, and they ran out of sacrament cups! So it was about 20 minutes of the sacrament being past, which is a pretty long time to sit quiet when you've never done that before, so I expected him to get restless and start asking questions, but nope he just read about 4 chapters in the Book of Mormon! It was really awesome! So after the meeting we went and talked a little, and found out he isn't in our ward :( But we are excited about him because he is definitely ready to hear the gospel!
That was good! And last night was good too! Elder Shuman and I were actually having a pretty bad night, our dinner cancelled on us so it was grilled cheese for dinner! And we just had an abnormal amount of hecklers yell things at us, anyway we were feelin pretty low! When we decided to go check on a guy named Matt, he is a member and is struggling with life right now. Anyway we read a chapter in the Book of Mormon with him, and it turns out Jacob 2:8 doesn't lie! The word of God really does heal the wounded soul!! So yeah we had a really good night after that! It was just a great experience and testimony builder!!
Have an awesome week!
Love,
Elder Pickett
