This morning was spent gathering up Book of Mormon reading charts. We now have charts made for nearly every active family in the branch. Enthusiasm for the reading program has increased, especially among the kids. A bit of competition is in the air to see who will finish first. It is so important that so many of the members are reading the scriptures daily.
Tonight we held a special Book of Mormon fireside in order to start off our reading campaign in style. Elder Blackham counted 34 people present, among which were Irmã Santos, Luis Filho (an investigator of Elder Smith and Elder Christensen), and Apolinário and Idelta. This last was a real treat because it was the first time Apolinário has been able to make it out. We played a few games to start, finally a story game using Arnold Friberg’s Book of Mormon pictures. Since we still have the Three Witnesses film, we showed it once again also. Even though this was the fourth showing, there were still quite a few who had not seen it. This really is a good show, well made, with good photography and acting.
