Just wanted to share a cool experience with all of you that I had today....
I am with my family on vacation right now in Hilton Head Island in South Carolina. We went to church at the branch here this morning. It's a really small branch, so I basically noticed every person that was in the room. I saw the missionaries with an investigator. He had a shaved head, jeans and a tight shirt on showing his tatoo on his arm. Later I found out from my dad, after everyone had introduced themselves in priesthood meeting, that he was from the Czech Republic!!! So my dad came running out after me. Long story short I talked to him for awhile in czech. It made me so happy to speak in the language with him and see how happy he was from being taught by the missionaries. He speaks very little english, so I am excited because while I am here I going to go have a meeting with them so I can help answer some questions he has. Anyways, it was just a testimony to me that Heavenly Father can always use us in many ways! I am not claiming to be anything special in this story, but I feel so blessed to be able to meet this guy and be able to take a small part in his learning about the gospel while here on vacation. I love the czechs!!
