On a recent hot day the young Elders were riding their bikes in an area of the city of Solo and a woman motioned to the missionaries to stop and talk to her. She initiated a conversation, and she had many questions for them. After speaking and answering her questions she invited them to teach her husband, and their 3 children about their message. They meet in the church to answer all their questions.
It is amazing when missionaries prayers are answered to be in the right spot, at the right time, speaking to the right person. It makes the hard days easier when we meet those who are searching for their own answers to their personal questions. We are surrounded by people. We pass them on the street and visit them in their homes and as it says in Preach My Gospel, "many people are searching for purpose in life. They are concerned for their families. And it is our purpose to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ, and His Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost and enduring to the end.”
We were invited to go with the missionaries out to their home in a beautiful village in the mountains. It was a spectacular 1 1/2 hour drive to a beautiful village surrounded by rice terraces and many other agriculture farms.
