We had a neat experience yesterday. We were contacting in the evening on the streets Sunday. Being a holiday, everyone was with their family and wasn't too interested in talking to us. We kept trying couple after couple and kept getting rejected and rejected. Elder Porter suggested that we go into a nearby park. We went and talked to a younger couple on a bench. As we asked them how they were doing and told them that we had a message about happiness for them from God. The man chuckled to himself and told us, “I was just thinking how nice it would be to talk to some guys like you both.” We found out in the ensuing conversation that the man (Andrei) is disillusioned with his religion and has some very serious questions about religion. He was more than happy to accept a Book of Mormon and give us his phone number. I hope that it goes somewhere. At the very least, it helped my testimony that even when it may appear that there aren't that many people prepared to receive the gospel, Heavenly Father is preparing people out there. I am thankful for His continued support.
