Following Jesus Today

One day I invited my friend Vivian to activity day. We had so much fun! Her mom said Vivian really liked it and asked if she can go every time. My mom said yes! Not only did I feel happy, I also felt good inside.

We are friends with a family who goes to another church. I asked my mom if we could give them a Book of Mormon. I gave it to their mom and asked if she would read it. She said yes.

I know Heavenly Father answers our prayers, and I love being a missionary!
