Dalllin Rogers Mission: August 11 Email-Martin Luther King Jr Street

Elder Rogers Testimony - July 9, 2008

“I want you to know how true this gospel is. It is amazing how much your testimony grows and changes bad habits when you devote yourself to the Lord. When you are too busy doin good you have no time to do bad. It is amazing how happy I am, even though I have no worldly things around me like an iPod or computer or phone. I am so filled with joy loving other people and devoting myself to the Lord. I know he loves us, and I know Jesus Christ is our true Savior. It is unbelievable what he did for us. I know that Joseph Smith is a true prophet of God and I know that he translated the Book of Mormon. I know that Thomas S. Monson is our prophet now just like Lehi, Nephi, and Jesus. It is weird to think of it like that, but I know he is. I love you all and will pray for you. Love you!” Elder Rogers

August 11 Email-Martin Luther King Jr Street

We went tracting on Martin Luther King Jr Street, right in the middle of the the trailers and the Hood. It really is so humbling to see these people and what they don't have. We went through there and started tracting. Every person there accepted a Book of Mormon. It was AMAZING! They were so willing to hear ANYTHING about Jesus Christ. We were walking and saw some black kids that were like 7-13 years old playing football. There was 6 of them, so we started to play with them. It was so much FUN! It was tackle football and smear the queer together. Not one of the kids had shoes on. We played with them for about 30 minutes. They were so funny. This is seriously a foreign country. Its crazy!
