(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.

Crystal's conversion story. Donnie O's autobiography, & the BoM.
Crystal has a cool conversion story posted on her blog. Here's the condensed version: She developed a crush on Donnie Osmond and watched the "Donny & Marie Daytime Talk Show." She bought a copy of his autobiography and was intrigued even more. She went to his web site and learned about his beliefs and felt comfortable with them. She told Grandma about reading up on the Mormons. Grandma gave her a Book of Mormon she had bought at a Catholic book sale. [Hence the tie-in to "Flood the Earth."] Crystal goes to college, and finds the LDS Student Associaton. Goes up to their table and says: "Hi. My name is Crystal, and I want to join your church."
Hey, thanks for the link!
