Anyone out there? Anyone reading this? Does anyone care?! haha well here it goes anyway.
So talking religion at work is kind of difficult and awkward. But somehow it still comes up. Last May I went to a few happy hour get togethers with coworkers, and obviously I stood out. Thanks to the Word of Wisdom. This was an easy way to talk with others about the church. A convo started with a girl only a few years older than I, and she was really interested. Of course I never got around to following up in the madness that is the end of the year.
I decided I would give her one now. Not the best timing, since all summer she could have read it, and now she won't have much time. But better than never. I got a card and wrote a little to her about it and wishing her a good school year. I also wrote a portion of my testimony in the book and underlined some verses. I bravely stuck it in a brown paper bag and left it on her desk when I knew she wouldn't be there! Hey small steps people.
Well she wrote me and email the next day and was thankful for the gesture. She said she is wanting to know more and open to learning about all the religions. All in all it went well. Now I just need to keep it up...
