Facebook

Hey everybody! Hope y'all had a Happy Thanksgiving. I did. Bad news though is that I took the pictures on my normal camera instead of my tablet and so I haven't gotten a chance to get those. I will send them next week.

So we got Facebook a while back, and not much has happened this week so I thought I'd share an experience I had this week that has shown me what a blessing Social Media can be if it's used correctly.

We all know how much information is on the internet. You can find data and statistics to support ANY opinion. This can be really good when you're doing a research project or something like that. But when you're a missionary, it means your investigators could run into A TON of anti-Mormon stuff. It's hard to combat that as a missionary but Facebook actually helped a bit. 

One of our investigators came across an article about exaltation and asked us over Facebook messenger and we were able to send her a couple articles about it that answered her question pretty well. Not that impressive, but normally we'd have to wait until the next time we saw her to answer it for her. So she would already have made an opinion about it. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Well that's all for this week
