6/10 letter

Family-
Today I went to the RC- Referral Center- and I talked to this lady that was calling from Hawaii saying she wanted a Finding Faith in Christ DVD because some guy gave her a card to cal in. So I got her information and we started talking about the DVD and I bore my testimony and she was all- "I want to meet Mormons" so I was all- "You want to go to church?" So I got her the info on church. I asked if she had any more questions. She asked why we called everyone Brother and Sister. I got to pretty much teach part of Lesson 1 over the phone! And it just so happened that I had taught this section of the lesson about an hour previous. It was not a coincidence. So I testified that God is our loving Heavenly Father and he loves us- we are His children. So then she said that she wanted to be part of a church that believed that we can communicate to Him through prayer and that He will answer. I was speechless! I honestly didn't know what to say! She said she had been having a hard time abut needing someone or something to lean on and in this case it was God. So I set her up with the missionaries and told her that they would bring her a DVD and also the Book of Mormon. She asked what that was and I told her a brief history and she said that she wanted to read it! So we said our goodbyes and I made a comment on her request form and I said-"She wants to learn and be baptized- wants to read B.O.M!" I basically helped convert someone over the phone! This is just a testimony to me that Christ prepares a way for people to be taught. Right before this lady called I was about to switch my status on outgoing calls only- but I had a feeling to leave it on incoming. As soon as I did that she called! Christ works in mysterious ways. The Gospel is true. Everything about it is.
