Albert Gunawan, Wassenaar, May 22, 2011
Elder Davies and I were looking up a former investigator in a student housing area. We knocked and a young man came to the door. We asked if our former investigator was around or even still lived there. He went inside checked for us and let us know he believes she does not live there anymore. Elder Davies then proceeded to tell him who we are and why we where there. We began speaking about Jesus Christ and The Restoration. He said his name was Albert, he comes from Indonesia and he is Christian. He invited us in and said he would like to hear more about Christ. Then we began teaching him once a week. He kept reading in Book of Mormon and always praying. Finally after a Church Tour he began coming to Church. Then Elder Seaman joined us for a time which he said he had read in the Bible that we need to be baptized and said he would like to move his Baptismal Date (that we had set) to a Sunday because it was better for him. From then on he came to church on Sunday week after week. Elder Davies and Elder Seaman left but Elder Mueller and Elder McCarlie and I continued to be instruments in the Lord’s hands to guide him to baptism. Even though English was his second language the spirit is the teacher and by his own study, prayer and the spirit he knew the truth of the Restoration and what the Lord has asked him to do to receive all the blessings. In the prophetic words of Elder Davies “He’s The Man”.
