(Elder Stagg’s conversion story) He never planned to serve a mission and went to college last year. He threw in a Book of Mormon that his mom gave him as a gift. One night he ended up grabbing it and reading it for 4 hours or so. He did that consecutively for a couple of weeks. He says when you know you just can´t deny that feeling, huh. Elder Stagg is teaching me how to help people feel comfortable. He is the kind of person that makes lemonade with the lemons that come to him. I laughed in my mind today as he showed me how cool it was that you could use that fat chunk of gum on your shoe to stick it to the rest of the gum that was strung around his foot. It´s easier to take it off that way he said. I thought that was so funny.
This last week, Elder Stagg and I were walking to find some people from the area book. A man drove up in a car and asked if we visited people’s houses. He said he didn´t have a lot of time, but come over tonight and teach him and his family. We went over that night and listened for about 30 minutes to this man’s life story. I didn´t understand all of it but Elder Stagg helped me understand after. He came to church the next day and we have family night with them and the Leiva family tomorrow at 8:30 or so. Adolfo got back from vacations this past week. I am so excited to see him again. He didn´t come to church yesterday a friend told us because there were some dangerous problems at his house the day before. Please pray for him. He is such a great kid. I look forward to helping him. All is going well for us. The Lord is blessing us immensely.
