Occasionally we find that 1 person who happens
to be a "Hebrew Israelite." Now, Hebrew Israelites on are a separate
branch that broke off from the Jews, they believe they are the real Jews and by
real Jews they believe that they are the real descendants of the slaves that
left Egypt and real descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. They also believe
that Jesus was black and that anyone who says otherwise should burn in
Hades We talked with
this Hebrew Israelite and he got so angry with us saying that we’re not
preaching the truth and we’re just spreading around false doctrine. When he
asked us where our proof was, we held out a Book of Mormon saying here it
is. Then he said that was not proof and its
false doctrine. Then he continued to
walk away cursing us and cussing at us.
So that happened but hey, he will hear the
truth eventually and will be forgiven one day so I'm not too worried for him.
The members feed us very well here. Hey Bryce, what spaghetti was for you on your
mission, pizza is for me. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Mmmm delicious.
I was able to go and see Michelle Gallagher’s baptism from
my last area in Pittsburgh. The only requirement from president was I needed to
bring someone from my area to the baptism. She was baptized and I knew immediately that
her life would never be the same. I
knew her life would change forever with Jesus Christ in the center of it. I was
very happy to be there for her and to witness that. She was so happy after her
baptism. She knew she just got a new
start, a new life and she’s very proud of herself for doing this.
This is
another thing that makes me so happy to be a missionary, to help those people
find Christ in their life and endure to the end. That is something, it’s truly love.
