Hello everyone!!!
So this week consists of finding a lot and getting caught in the rain
and loving life and teaching a Muslim family.
So we knocked on a door and a Muslim lady opened and we stood their
awkwardly (cause....she's Muslim....) and I said the first things that
came into mind and asked if they would like to see a video of Jesus
Christ and she went and got her 12 year old grandson and he translated
for us and before we know it she was smiling and motioning for us to
go inside. So we go inside and show the video and as it's playing the
spirit filled the room and it was so hard to hold back tears as I
thought the love Heavenly Father has for all his children and how this
gospel really can reach every nation, kindred and tongue possible.
After the video they said they liked it and fed us Arabic cookies
more then his pics make us eat tacos and then the 12 year old boy
started telling us about all their beliefs and it was crazy cool to
see how similar our religions are to each other. He talked about Jesus
Christ, Mohammad, and other prophets they believe in and then showed
us the book they read out of and it was ssooo cool and how that book
was written by prophets and stuff and that's when we said " we also
have another book that was written by prophets " and basically taught
about Joseph Smith and what the Book of Mormon is about and he was so
interested and he restated everything we told him in his own words and
he told us how he has read the bible the King James Version and how he
wants to read a Roman Catholic bible and stuff and he was so
intelligent it was crazy! So we left them with a book of Mormon and as
we were walking out his grandma kissed us and hugged us a million
times and he said " you better come back, I'm gonna have questions
about this book"
It was the coolest thing ever!!
