MIRACLE OF THE WEEK:
Yesterday an older man showed up at church, just completely prepared for the gospel. He stood up and introduced himself as a friend of someone in the ward and said that he attends the Presbyterian church, that he really likes the feeling of this church, and that he wants to become a member. The whole congregation just looked back at me and my companion like, “TAKE CARE OF THIS.” Haha.
So the ward mission leader came up to us after the meeting and was like, “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!” And we went in the other room with him and talked. He’s so cool!! He said that when he was in college, he had a roommate that was Mormon and that he went to church with him and even met with the missionaries but didn’t convert. Then he got all serious and said that it was the biggest regret of his life because he’s only just now coming to church so late in his life (I think he is in his 70s) and that he’s committed so many sins that he could have avoided. We told him that the great thing about the gospel is that we always have the opportunity to repent and be forgiven and he said he knew that. It was so exciting!
The only bad thing is that he actually lives in Seoul! So we have to refer him to different missionaries :( But he’s definitely going to be baptized. He’s read the Bible in English TWICE. He taught himself English that way! Insane, right?
