And nah we didn't do anything for Halloween.... finding was dodgy as 
though hahaha... we did 5 hours finding on Halloween and I think I 
talked to a billion zombies.... Like really?... Be original... zombies 
are lame... haha. But I got a 
super cool story....: 
So a couple of weeks ago we taught this Less-Active. He's a Japanese Stunt-Man and 
lived in L.A. for 4 years and did movie shoots there! But this lesson he
 set up with us... just called us one night and said "I want a lesson 
tomorrow"... So we met with him and he asked a TON of questions!... And 
it was super cool... we were able to answer every single one of his 
questions with the Book of Mormon... and then we felt impressed to dwell
 on this topic and focused on the Book of Mormon the whole lesson.... 
then by the end of it he was like "You know, both of you impressed me 
very much today... I actually scheduled this appointment today for the 
sole purpose of returning this... (pulls out the Book of Mormon)... I 
never opened it or had any intention to read it... even when I was 
baptized I didn't see much importance for it..... But now you have 
motivated me to read it now!!".... I was just like.... uhum.... uhum....
 and screamed to myself a little silent "WOOO HOOOOOOOOO" And then just 
as we finished the lesson he got a call... and then he went and took 
it... then came back a few minutes later and was like "ELDERS! 
ELDERS!!!..... Ever since I've been coming to church and you've been 
telling me to pray... I've been praying I can get a job opening for a 
movie shoot because I haven't had one in forever! But I just got a call 
from some people who need me tonight to shoot a scene for a movie! God 
has answered my prayers!!! Thank you!!!!" And then he invited us to come
 and watch hahah, I was so cut we couldn't go hahah but we were super 
happy that things were going good for him now!... All because he was 
coming back to church. So that was a 
really cool experience... I have no doubt in my mind that the Book of 
Mormon can change lives.... even for this man.... it didn't play a 
part of his conversion... thus the statement by Jeffrey R. Holland... 
"One cannot come to full faith in this gospel without embracing the 
divinity of the Book of Mormon"... And so even though this guy has been 
baptized.... as he reads the Book of Mormon... he's going to be fully 
converted :D.... WOO HOOO!!!!
I don't have much time to write like I did last week. So I'll just give you scriptures to ponder on 
hahaha, much easier... So this week is "Charity and Love"..... And as 
you read the following scriptures just think "How did Jesus Christ 
demonstrate Charity?".... Ether 12:33-34....Alma 7:11-13..... Luke 
7:12-15.... 2 Nephi 26:24-28........ Then....... Mosiah 28:3.... if we 
have enough Charity and Love and fully realize what Jesus Christ has 
done for us we can come to be like this and want to spread this Gospel 
to EVERYONE... Then my all time favorite scripture relating to helping 
the poor and being charitbale.... Mosiah 4:15-26..... WOOOO!!!.... The 
more you love your Heavenly Father and your Savior Jesus Christ... the 
more you will look on those perishing souls with compassion.... you will
 feel you will want to take them upon your shoulders and cast their sins
 and burdens behind your back..... So try to focus on that this week! :)
