Our running joke is to "engage with as many people as possible" each day and boy oh boy has it given us some stories:
Sister Hicks rolled my window down for me at a red light and said "engage with that man right now." Palmdale people normally ignore us but this man ripped off his headphones and yelled "my number is 661-501.... my treat my treat!" The light turned green and I was laughing so hard as he chased after us yelling his number hahhaha that's one way to engage while driving
Walking through a park that's only safe during daylight hours a man hollered us over to his car "Mormons? I used to meet with you... I think you have what I want." He left and then came back completely dressed up in a nice sweater and chains, ready to learn
Daisy told her daughter "just one more lap." On that last lap she ran into us and as we talked, my heart was full because I knew I was looking into the eyes of someone who was prepared. "I look forward to what you have to share, maybe I can come to your church?"
As we've spent all our time outside #engaging with people we received a miracle phonecall. The Harper kids have permission to be baptized!!!
Engaging = feeling God's love for people. The longer we talk with people, the more love we feel. "The first truth of the gospel is that God loves us with all His heart, might, mind and strength." It's true. I know it and I love Him for it.
Love big! Love hard!
