On March 21 I went out to proselyte with the Steung Mean Chey Branch 3 Sisters. (old 4th branch), Sisters Erekson and Johnson. Sarat, our part time housekeeper/cook's daughter went with us to our first investigator. This sister lives in an area that had a lot of smelly garbage. Usually this doesn't bother me, but this area was strong. The home was very small, maybe 5 x8 feet as pictured. It is in a narrow alley with a little sliding door. The sister was so receptive and ready to learn. She loves the Book of Mormon and says she can't put it down. Her little boy had part of a diseased finger cut off and also loved learning. Special lady. The neighbor came over with her little girl to see what was going on.
The sisters have an investigator in the Branch President's home. It is his daughter-in-law with the baby. We taught her to pray. She did pray at the end and did a good job. The Relief Society President, who has her own story to tell, went with us after to introduce us to her friend and while there another neighbor came over and she wanted to learn. We taught about God, the Father. They want to learn and want to know about Jesus Christ and will come to Church. It was a great afternoon where I relearned several of life's lessons. One of the Branch President's daughters was selling fish and other food in front of their home. She has a brush she uses to brush away the flies.
My tuk tuk driver takes me home.
