Alfredo-A Humble Family

When we go shopping, we always like to take an opportunity to share the gospel. At the grocery store, there are "bag boys" or "impacadores" who take the groceries to the car for a tip. It is the only income they have so they compete for the chance to take out your bags. On the way to the car, we talk with them and get to know them a bit and then share a pass along card or Book of Mormon. One young man, Alfredo, has a family and lives off of the tips he makes taking out groceries and other odd jobs at the grocery store. We tried for 3 months to get him connected to the missionaries and finally met the missionaries and went with them to his house. It was such a humble home and his little boy and wife were so cute. We understand that he is continuing to take the discussions and we are hopeful that he will feel the Spirit and be baptized.
