My companion and me
Dear family,
The other elders in our ward had their contract expire for their house, so they got to move in with us. It is a little crazy to have four elders in the same house, and not just have it be for a night or two, but it is pretty fun.
We had a really jam packed week this last week. We found a family with a less active dad who hasn't been to church for like 10 years, and so his kids and his wife aren't members. We finally had the chance to teach them as a family, and it was an amazing lesson that we had.
We brought one of the members with us and ... we all started crying at the end of the lesson. It really hit the dad hard. He is a big tought looking bald guy, so it kind of shook me up to see him start to cry, but it just shows that when the Spirit talks to us, we will recognize it, if we want to. He really wanted to. He started to explain to us how he has wanted something like this to happen for years, but he didn't want to force his wife to come to church with him. He wanted her to find out for herself. He still has a pretty strong testimony, but he had lost his hope. He found that again, and told us that he was going to do what he could to help his family come to church and to pray about what we had said.
God loves all of His children, and will send them the things that they need in the time that they need.
I know that is true!
Love,
Elder DuBose
