Ello, ello!
How is everybody doing on this beautiful day?! I'm doing great! It's a beautiful day here in Birkenhead!
Well, the subject sums up one lesson that we taught this week to two of our new investigators, Kyle and Vicky. They are hilarious, but throughout the whole lesson she was saying how beautiful Elder Starr and I were, and that she could just marry me. It was quite strange, but they are great.
It was a really great week here. We saw a lot of miracles, including just watching the Spirit touch the hearts of the people.
We were speaking to this man named Andy, and he was very contentious, just wanting to tell us that the Mormons were a bunch of hypocrites and that it was all fake and things like that. I tried reasoning with him, but that did nothing. So I did the best thing I could've done: bear testimony. I told him that I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only true church and the only one with the authority of God. I told him that I knew that it was only through it that we would be able to be with our families forever, and the only way to find true peace and joy in this life.
As I testified, he shut his mouth, something that hadn't happened during the whole conversation. He listened. And afterwards, he asked where our church was, and when we meet.
I know that the Spirit of God is real. I know that it is the only way that we can know truth in this life. The Holy Ghost protects us, helps us, and guides us, if we are but willing to listen. So listen to the Spirit. You will not go astray.
I love you all so much, and I am grateful for the chance I have you know you! thanks for everything!
Love,
Elder Ashcraft
