From David and Viola Ricks
Teaching in Germany
Today
we took the elders and went to a family where the mom is a Brazilian
member. She is really nice. They live about 50 minute drive from
the church. The husband is a German non-member and have a six year old
son. The Elders gave such an awesome lesson. The little boy,
Darian, is a good reader, and can read the scriptures with a little help.
They let him read some verses from their new ipads. He was in
heaven! Before he was just a little bored and causing trouble. The young
mom shed a few tears to see her little boy reading the Book of Mormon.
They told the story of Ammon from Alma. She cannot come to church because
she does not drive, and the husband isn't interested in driving so far, and so
early on Sunday morning. Dad gave Darian a copy of the Liahona-----Oh how
he loved it and started reading and doing the activities in the back. So
when we left, dad gave him two more issues, and he jumped up and down in
excitement. We take so much for granted!
