Urdu at middle-eastern store. Fri, Mar 30, 2007.

03/30/2007. 807. I stopped at a middle-eastern grocery store that I haven't been to before, and shopped a bit. I didn't have any books in my car except English, Spanish, and my Chinese/Asian bag. I still haven't fully restocked the car since I cleared it out for a trip I took on March 24th.

I struck up a conversation with the proprietor who spoke Urdu and English. I offered to get him the Book of Mormon in Urdu, and he was agreeable. So I went back later in the evening and gave him an Urdu copy and an English copy of the Book of Mormon. During both my trips to the store, he kept the conversation going as he was chatty.

Where can I get a copy of the Book of Mormon in Urdu? I have two friends that want a copy.
