About 3 years ago, I started dating Spencer Rogers. About 4 months after that, in June, he had obtained a copy of the Book of Mormon and started meeting with the LDS missionaries. By October, he had decided to get baptized, but was not able to until the following June. He was baptized on June 23rd 2007. The next June (2008) made him eligible to serve a mission. He worked full time to raise money to get on that mission. Through frustration, discouragement, and all the other struggles, he finally made it. Elder Rogers entered the Missionary Training Center in Provo, UT today!!
This is Elder Rogers with some of the missionaries who taught him!
Why Is Life Hard?

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about trials- the hard times we face in
this life. I have come to realize that hard times are going to come whether
we are...

Yes, Spencer is so awesome. I am so glad he was able to make it on his mission, as, like you said, it wasn't easy, especially given his family situation. That guy has a testimony!! It's so wonderful that you could teach him about the gospel. If it wasn't for you, he may not be at the MTC, now! We should all be as open to sharing the gospel as you are- and as Spencer is. Now Spencer will convert atleast 20 people in Germany! Wow.
