We are teaching a stay at home mom who is very
interested in reading the Book of Mormon. She is so awesome! The way we
came in contact with her was actually something that happened before I
got into OKC. Sister Bowles and her other comp were getting in the car
and the little girl (4 years old) yells out to them from across the
parking lot and asks them their names. She then asks why they are
dressed like princesses. :D She is so adorable!!!!
Then my first week here Sister Bowles and I went to
their home to introduce ourselves. The mom is super sweet and is just
looking for the truth. She has such a love for Christ and His atonement
already. She is very interested in reading the Book of Mormon. We've
been over 3 times already and her husband told us we were welcome in
their home anytime. They are a wonderful family. They told us they
were surprised we came back a second time. Every other time anybody from
any other church comes over and they find out they will not go to the
church they never hear from them again. I guess they were impressed that
we keep coming back to see them.
Last Thursday we went to read the story Christ in the
America's and blessing the children from the Book of Mormon reader to
the 4 year old. [Name withheld] daughter, is very hyper and full of energy. As soon as I
started reading to her she went silent and her mom came behind us to
listen to the story. The Spirit was very very strong and I was able to
bear my testimony of the Book of Mormon to [name withheld]. She got a little
emotional as we talked, I know she felt something. She is amazing!
There are so many miracles happening here in OKC, even
if that miracle is to just keep us missionaries going. :) OH! We made
homemade sushi at a member's home this week. It was so good. I also
tried Kimchi. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
We had a thunderstorm that shook the walls of the
house, that was incredible! Then, there was a clap of thunder that made
car alarms go off. >:D It made me happy inside. Anyway, all is
going well here in OKC. The people are super friendly and very nice.
It's a little tricky though because they all pretty much have a church
they go to and already believe in Christ and think thats all they need.
Like I said though, some of the nicest people I have EVER met. :) I
love y'all very very much! I'll talk to you soon and be expecting my SD
card in the mail. Have a GGGRREEATTT DAY!
Love, Sister Record
