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

Commitment to be Baptized!

We had a lesson with a woman in Prichard. Her name is, Arllinda. We taught her the plan of salvation and she absolutely loved it! She said, "this sounds so familiar, it makes sense." We were like YEAH! and so I asked her to be baptized, and she said she WOULD, so that is AWESOME! She has about eight kids. They are so funny. We are teaching the kids now. They are great. It's crazy tho, when we get to Prichard, usually kids ask us for candy, money or something, but these kids ask for water. They say I just want some water. It is sad. Their water is so nasty in Prichard. It is like yellow. It is so interesting to see the difference in cultures in our area; southern redneck and ghetto.
