The following day we went door knocking again in the evening and met a man outside his home and we told him we were missionaries and why we were here. We asked him if there was anything we could do for him. We talked to him about serving others and family. In Cyprus and Greece family is very important. They usually all live together in their homes. Grandparents and great grandparents and all the kids. And they are all close. So, he was telling us about how he has a two apartment house and that he lives with his parents on the first floor and his sister and her children above him. And as we asked him if there was anything we could do for him or help him in anyway. He was shocked at first and then he started thinking of some ideas. And told us we could come tomorrow and help him bring some of his sister's things down to his home, because she will renovate the home. We were so happy to be able to serve him and his family. So, the next day with the elders we went and helped move all of the things down to his house and the family loved talking to us and seeing us help. We were then invited to have lunch with them :) And that was when he started having questions about the church. After lunch we had a combined lesson with the elders on the Restoration. It was amazing!!! It was just a massive blessing to see God prepare His people!! On Sunday we had testimony meeting and that was very good!! We got to take pictures with everyone and say goodbye!
I just want to share my testimony of the Savior. I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior. I know that He lives! This is His church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I know it is true! I know with all my heart that we can come closer to Him through the scriptures and prayer! I know that as we do the things He has asked us to do we will feel His love! I have felt it. I know He loves you all!! I am grateful for this mission! I have learned a lot!! I know He is the true source of happiness! Follow Him:)
I love you all,
Sister Ramsay
