But as we were biking around we two people walk over and sit on a bench. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image1-2017-11-07.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image1-2017-11-07-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-934\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image1-2017-11-07-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image1-2017-11-07-768x574.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image1-2017-11-07-1024x765.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image1-2017-11-07-610x456.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>We stopped and asked them if they could help us out with an experiment. We handed the women a Book of Mormon and asked her to pick any random page and highlight anything that refers to God, Jesus Christ, a higher power, etc. they were willing to help and after a few moments of reading they were quite impressed with the things they were learning. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-935\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11-768x1028.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11-765x1024.jpg 765w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11-610x817.jpg 610w, https:\/\/dakotajsummers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/image4-2017-11-11.jpg 1936w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a>It turns out they had stopped going to church a while back and were looking to get back into going and when we explained our message and what a church service is like they couldn&#8217;t wait to check it out! Every time something like this happens it always puts us on cloud 9 cause it&#8217;s so amazing to watch the spirit testify of truth to these people. <\/p>\n<p>Now unfortunately, when we texted them later the women had given us a false number so we aren&#8217;t able to get ahold of them again&#8230; BUT they have a copy of the Book of Mormon and who knows, maybe they will pick it up one day down the road and read more of it. For now it&#8217;s just a seed. <\/p>\n<p>I hope everyone has a wonderful week and enjoys the fall!!!
