Ward Canvasing Project


On the 19th of January seven elders from the 52nd ward went around our neighborhood for the ward canvasing project. We met a lot of interesting people and we all seemed to comment afterwards that this was just as good as full time missionary work, if not better. We were even able to meet a couple people that were ready to hear the gospel. Brother Wampler and I met a guy from the Dominican Republic, who had an El Libro de Mormon in his apartment and said that his friends were all return missionaries. Another companionship met a girl that was very interested and said that she had a co-worker who had been talking to her about the gospel. I know that this was an activity that blessed many lives, including those that were doing the work. We also had the opportunity to meet up with the missionaries and tell them about the families that we met with. They were really excited to get some names of people to work with and I can testify to you that they are worthy missionaries that will do a great job with the names that we give them. We appreciate all that they do and that all the members of our ward do for the proclaimation of the gospel. Thank you.
