Today is the start of a new month so I'm thinking about missionary work and wanting to do more about sharing the gospel. I met Lee while on the plane to Seattle and turned out he knew a lot about the church and loved talking about it to me, so it was a marvelous missionary moment for me! He had good memories of working with members years ago when he worked at a steel plant. He had made friends and had actually had the missionaries teach him at one point. He remembered the kindness of the members to his family. One man had played Santa to his kids for several years. He had been to the temple open house for the Seattle temple, and was anxious to take us there so he offered to give us a tour of Seattle and we went there before we went on our cruise. The man in the middle is a bus driver and an old friend of Lee's. (Lee is a retired bus driver). We met him quite by chance while touring a neighborhood in Seattle. Lee has now been contacted by the missionaries again and has expressed interest in visiting the church.. Today I want to drop him a note and ask how he is doing.
