In our house we have 4 missionaries who live together. Two weeks ago
one of the missionaries finished his mission and so we were in a trio for a week
and a half until transfers. the missionary who joined our companionship is doing
physical therapy for his knee becasue it is really messed up. While we were at
the physical therapy office, some of the receptionists started to ask us about
the church. While we were giving our spill and bearing our testimonies, an older
man who was waiting for his wife piped up and entered into the conversation. At
that moment we were explaining about the Book of Mormon. The man proceeded to
explain that we dont need religion and religion doesnt save and God does and
that the BoM is false. Stuff we hear every day. He then was telling everyone a
bunch of nonsense and then my companion step in and bore his testimony. it was
awesome because he bore it very strongly, and then the man went at it again. MY
comp then was getting worked up, i just was trying not to laugh out loud because
that was the only thing that i could do in the situation to keep from getting
frustrated. We tried to teach and help that man but he wanted none of it saying
that what we had to offer would benefit him in no way and he already had the
knowledge he needs. I was kind of sad because he was so hard headed and hard
hearted. It was a very interesting experience and i am learning so much each
day. I love being a missionary and testifyiing of the truth. I am grateful for
the gospel we have and know it is true! I love you guys!"
