Hey all!
So the bad news of this week is that the second iPad they
ordered for me also got stolen before getting to me...along with any mail that
any of you sent to me in the last 6 weeks. C'est la vie. But I'm not that sad
because the good news far outweighs the bad!
The good news is the baptism of our investigator, Roger!
This man was so prepared. He was found before I got here, when the missionaries
went to the residence of his friend, and he just walked down the stairs with
the Book of Mormon in his hand and joined the discussion. Turns out he was
taught in Congo, already knew it was true, just never got to be baptized before
coming to Belgium.
Small story to finish: we left the apartment and walked a
couple minutes before I realized I had forgotten to put on my nametag. So we
went back and got it and that somehow put us in the perfect position to be
contacted by a guy in the street. He asked us to pray with him, gave us his
number to set up a rendez-vous, and then left. Uh...ok! Sure! We taught him the
Restoration in the chapel. He told us after the lesson that during the First
Vision, he felt something, "like the feeling you get when you win a
race." He felt like he had finally gotten something, like he had found
what he'd been striving for. We're seeing him again tomorrow.
That's all for this week! Stay tuned for the next episode.
Love you all!
