Book of Mormon Read

Hi Y'all. 

This week was great! We had some incredible experiences! 

We met this adorable family from Egypt. The mom was home with their kids and we knocked on their door! They moved here about 5 years ago and are both Christian but of different denominations. She let us in and we taught her the Restoration and about the Book of Mormon. She loved it and had her kids kiss the Book saying "Be gentle it's a bible. Be nice to it." It was so tender!

We also started teaching a new friend named Betty this week. She is a cute YSA girl the Elders found contacting by the beach! She grew up in the foster system and found religion along the way from a family she lived with.  She now is an inspirational speaker for kids in foster care. We taught her the Restoration yesterday and gave her a church tour. She loved the idea that God continues the way he always has. She asked for a Book of Mormon and we are teaching her now! She is amazing. 

We start the Book of Mormon read tomorrow!! I'm so pumped! Its pretty cool! IWe will be reading the Book of Mormon every day from 9am to 4pm. The goal is to read the whole Book of Mormon before Sunday night. President Nakken shared with us how powerful it will be to read the book straight through. It is going to help us teach more from the scriptures so much!

I love my mission and this work! Miss everyone lots! Have a great week! If anyone wants to join me in the Book of Mormon read, I will attach a picture of the schedule!

Love,
