Elder Vanoli and I had a really good week this week! A little unconventional, but we taught two people at the same time. We had an appointment sent with Alex, and some other guy just showed up and started talking to us. When Alex came, Elder Vanoli went and sat on a bench to talk to him and I stayed with the man (named Joseph). Although he started the conversation very negative and not really open to anything, we talked a lot about our lives and at the end he decided that he wanted to read the Book of Mormon in order to find more peace in his life.
My companion shared a really cool scripture this week from James 3, where he states that "But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be." Our words can be used to bless and lift others, or they can be used to hurt and degrade others. We must be kind to everyone, in word and in deed.
