(One drop at a time.) My journal entries about offering copies of the Book of Mormon, the Bible, and other LDS church books, mainly to immigrants in their native language, mainly in Indianapolis, Indiana. With 106 translations, the Book of Mormon (along with the Bible) is a good "Rosetta Stone" for learning English or other languages, in addition to being a missionary tool.

Moment #501. English to member. Sun, Dec 11, 2005.
12/11/2005. A man I hadn't met before was at church today, sitting with his fiancee, and the missionaries. I sat next to him in Priesthood meeting. He said he was a member returning after an absence. His words exhibited much humility and faith. He had with him a blue missionary Book of Mormon, and the Gospel Principles manual. After the meetings, I asked him if he needed a set of scriptures, like the Triple Combination and the LDS edition Bible. He said that he didn't have them. I went to my car and brought back a used Quadruple combination that I had bought cheaply on Ebay, and presented it to him.
