Bus Surfing

Elder Broman and I decided to try out a finding idea that I'm pretty sure is crazy. But it worked out great, and was a lot of fun! Usually, the biggest downside to working in San Francisco is the travel time. On bus, sometimes it can take an hour and a half to get to some appointments... BUT, this week, we set aside two hours JUST to travel. We had NO destination in mind.

we just Jumped on a bus, sat by two different people, and started to teach them whatever we could. When they got off the bus, or it was clear they weren't interested, we would get off the bus and get on the next one! It was super fun, almost like a game. AND we got like 3 or 4 new potentials out of it, including an 18 year old Columbian that Elder Broman found. He's looking pretty promising. We'll probably keep doing that for a while.

Also, Felipe got Confirmed a member of the church yesterday! The Young Men's President confirmed him, and it was super powerful.

We challenged him mom to be baptized, and she said she would be too scared to change from what she grew up with (Catholicism). which is totally natural. Her brother converted to the church a few years ago, and he talked about how hard it was for him to make the change as well. Actually, he was kicked out of him home when his parents found out he had been taking discussions. He prayed and asked to know what the right path for him was and he received a clear answer that the LDS church was the route he should take and that the Lord would provide a way for all those that follow Him. IT. WAS. AWESOME. He is such a great support for her. We think she'll be baptized once she prays about it sincerely. We're not rushing her, it's gotta come from the heart for it to have any impact on her, but we think she'll be baptized in the next month or so. Pray for her! #CeciliaCruz
