Hi everyone!!
We had snow this week for the first time!
We met with our friend Vladimir this week, and had a great experience sharing the message of the Restoration with him. He seemed to take it well, and hopefully we will continue to work with him!
We also had an exciting experience with our friend Danil, who loves coming to church with us every week. After church yesterday, he asked the bishop how one would go about joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. That was the start of a very good conversation about baptism and the Restoration of the fulness of the gospel of Christ.
One of the most exciting things I've got to do as a missionary is to go contacting in public, or to walk up to any person in public and start a conversation about religion. This has resulted in some very awkward as well as very rewarding and positive interactions. My companion and I were about to go home when we started a conversation with a woman. We told her about the Book of Mormon, and that it is evidence of God's love for us. She seemed very touched by the Spirit and our message, and accepted the Book and told us she would read it. I'm glad we had the courage to open our mouths and share the message that she needed to hear.
Have a wonderful week
Elder Olivier
