This has been a tremendously successful day. We recently came to learn that we can go into the student's barracks and ask the CQ to have a student come down to meet with us. They will send a runner to the student's room to let them know they have a visitor. When the student comes down to the CQ's office we can go outside and find a shady place to sit and visit. This morning we were able to reach 10 of the students who are members of the church. Most come out to church as often as possible, some have difficulties. During our visit we try to get to know them and help them get to know us. We encourage them to be prayerful and study their scriptures everyday. We were visiting students from about 0930 to nearly 1330. We were also able to meet and talk with a couple of students who have come out to church activities who are not members of the church. We hope that we are able to establish a bond of trust with all our students so that they will feel comfortable calling on us if they should every need anything. We feel this has been a break through day.
This evening we were able to meet and visit with a family in the ward. He serves in the Air Force as a linguist. They have a cute family of three little girls from 8 to 4. We had a nice time visiting with them. We are so appreciative to our Heavenly Father for blessing us with such a great opportunity to bless the lives of these military men and women.
We finally received a photo of the young man who was baptized about 3 weeks ago. He is the one on the left. What a great experience.
