IT WORKED OUT JUST AS IT WAS SUPPOSE TO

Email May 18, 2015 Hello family! So this week was really good. We had zone training meeting this week and interviews with President. It was SO GOOD! My interview with President was exactly what I needed. It was my last one with him though! He is leaving the first of July. We also bumped into a crazy man who was saying that the Bible is the sign of the beast... That was an interesting conversation. He kept us there listening to him for almost half an hour as he went on and on about how evil the bible was. I finally got a word in and said, "Well, it was so nice to meet you. Have a great day," and then we left. Crazy life. So here is a spiritual experience that I had yesterday: We had an exchange with Brydon (which was awesome in and of itself. We have been trying to get out with him since I got here, him being the branch mission leader and everything) and we were planning on going to see a potential investigator named Josh. We were late getting over to Josh's place though because of our dinner appointment and when we got there we realized that we didn't have his apartment number. Ok...so we gave him a call with no answer. We decided to wait for a few minutes to see if he would call back, and while we were waiting I saw a dad and his son standing outside across the street from us. After a few minutes I thought, "Well this is stupid," and walked over to them to start up a conversation. I am so glad I did too! They are awesome! The dads name is Jeremy and his sons name is Zach. Golden. Jeremy has been struggling with his faith for a little while and we were able to have a great conversation with him and share our testimonies. He agreed to meet with us again and said he would love to talk to someone who converted to the LDS church and hear their take on Joseph Smith and stuff to see how they came to know that it was true. Anyway, as we were wrapping up our conversation with Jeremy, Josh came back! We were able to talk to him a little bit, not for too long because it was getting dark and we didn't have another girl with us so we couldn't go inside, but we got to set up another appointment to meet with him and maybe his room mate too, Chris. After that we had just enough time to finish talking to Brydon about some people, and then send in our indicators for the night. Basically, everything worked out totally not how we had planned, but just how it was supposed too. SO COOL! Have an awesome week y'all! Love, Sister Cryer
