It was so good to talk to you today! I enjoyed it, even
though it was brief. I, too, look forward to your letters every week.
This week we had a miracle with our Nigerian investigator, KEN. He
was planning to meet us, but for the moment, he's living up by 의정부 (Uijeongbu), but
he's moving to Seoul soon. He was coming to meet us, but he had a
sudden job interview, so we thought that we weren't going to be able to
meet him that day, but later, our other appointments canceled, and KEN
showed up! He seems to really enjoy learning about the word of God. He reads the Book of Mormon avidly. He read the first 20
chapters without us even asking him! Since he lost his job, all he does
is study the Book of Mormon.
Then he came to church yesterday, and saw a
baptism, and we taught everything else needed before his baptism next
week. The other 용산 (Yongsan) elders found a less active from Nigeria, and when he
came to our church, he saw KEN, and it turns out that they know
each other! So he was a great help in that. He even had a job offer for
him that would move KEN right by our house. Everything worked out
perfectly. He has such great faith and truly believes that through the
grace of God, he can do anything.
Also, his friend that we met with on a different occasion, JOE, at
first didn't want to be baptized a second time. We explained authority,
but he refused it. We prayed so hard for him, and when we met on Saturday, he said that he could see himself getting baptized later, after he studies more.
I know this is the Lord's work, you can't trust 19 year olds with
much, let alone the future of a company. But the Lord guides his true
church, so we cannot fail!
