I read Everyday Missionaries and absolutely loved it. I have always wanted to be better at sharing the gospel, and sometimes my efforts have been pretty clumsy.

I decided to give the principles a try, and I first invited our landscape guy and his family to come to our home and hear the missionaries. The parents speak Spanish only, and the mom had a conversation with my mom when they were visiting. She said she had friends who were members.

My mom encouraged me to go ahead and invite them so I did. I first asked the mom, and she said they would like to come and see.

Then I made a point of calling the dad because I learned on my mission to Argentina that in their culture you always go through the head of the family. He agreed and they came with their two children.

We had a wonderful dinner and discussion, and the full-time missionaries did a great job teaching. They agreed to read and pray and then came to stake conference on Sunday.

I couldn’t believe how easy it was! I simply had to open my mouth.
