Alma the Younger

Monday: did a little bit of biking and found an investigator who is addicted to marijuana and doesn't want to go to church and stop smoking.

Wednesday: went to a bike shop to fix my bike from getting hit by the car! Thanks dad! 

Thursday: weekly planning and a member took us to a Mexican hot dog place which is a hot dog wrapped in bacon with beans and a lot of sauces. 

Friday: district meeting, got a flat tire so I couldn't do anything. 

Saturday: found a family who are members but their 9 year old isn't baptized but he will be on the 29th!!! 

Sunday: companion got sick during dinner so we stayed with the members for a couple of hours and I did Spanish study with the members. 

Wanted to share a story with you! 

Alma the younger was a baller!!!!!! 

Really quick version of his life:

Young punk teenager who hated the church would go around trashing on the church! And then his dad Alma prayed and fasted that his son's heart would soften. And it didn't but he was visited by an angel of the Lord! And Alma couldn't move or speak for 3 days and he felt the pain of all of his sins almost until he died. Then we called on Jesus in his mind "...O Jesus, thou Son of God, have mercy on me, who am in the gall of bitterness, and am encircled about by the everlasting chains of death" Alma 36:18. And then he felt the joy of the Lord on him! Then he became the prophet and was one of the best missionaries in The Book of Mormon! He was truly a baller! Read his whole conversion story in Alma 36!!!!!!!
