Planting Seeds of Truth

Hello Everybody. I wanted to update you on a couple of our calls. Some of them have even progressed into bible studies, which have been so AWESOME! Remember the call that the young brother offered the bible study to? He gave that study to us since he was going to be starting school. Since then we have been able to conduct three studies with the family. They have four kids, I got to read some of the bible story lessons with them, and the oldest one loved it! They have enjoyed their personal study out of the Bible Teach book so much. We have had a study with them almost every week. This past week the oldest kid had to go to the hospital because his jaw swelled up. We went and visited him and the first thing he said was "I watched the video you gave me!" We had given him a video for him and his brothers and sisters to watch about obedience. His mom said that they loved the video. We brought his mom some lunch and a few magazines. She said "Great, I am so glad you brought me some things to read!" They were very thankful for us coming by. The little boy got sent home yesterday. We are hoping we can get to visit with them more this week.

On another great note, Riley got a bible study (Yay!) George handed her a call on a woman that he had been calling on for a while. The next time Riley went up and offered her a study from the Bible Teach book. She agreed. Since then they have had multiple great studies. She asked great questions like: "Where are the dead?" " Do you guys celebrate Christmas?". They studied with her 2 times a week!!! Then she said "Do you think we could not study as often? Like maybe once a week?" So now they have gotten to study once a week with her. She said that she was already in chapter seven in the book! She even uses Jehovah's name! They invited her to meeting although she didn't get to come to the meeting that week.. She said that she would try to come to the Kingdom Hall next week! Isn't that awesome? She is doing great and we look forward to more studies with her.

So there are a couple of our new experiences. We will keep you updated on how the studies continue to progress!
