We have been meeting with the Elders and teaching a family: Daniel, Zinab, Samual (4 yrs) and Abraham (2 yrs). They come from Sierra Leon Africa and have been here about 6 months. They fled Sierra Leon during the war to save their lives and stayed in another country about 10 years trying to get visas to USA. They are now living with a relative trying to get established here. They feel so excited about learning about the true church. Daniel said the Book of Mormon is like food to him; his breakfast, lunch and dinner. Because they have found this church they are able to sleep in peace for the first time in a long time because their situation is so desperate. They will be baptised on Sunday, July 31 and he said they have decided to fast starting on Friday before their baptism because they are so thankful. He said there were not words to describe how they were feeling about the church.
