shopping for investigators

We have just the best time when we go to the store!  We went to WalMart today and Glen found a man with his son that was interested in our name tags.  So Glen talked to him and got his phone number.  He speaks really good English so we may send the referral on but maybe Glen will go with the Elders and see which language he prefers.  He has liver failure and is interested in learning more about God.
So while Glen was talking to this man, I was at the checkout and the lady there saw them talking and asked what ward I go to.  When I asked if she was a Mormon she said her family is but they are less active since her husband's parents both died and he has had a hard time with it. I gave her our number and a card.  We will be going back soon.
We went and visited a semi-active woman in the branch who has adopted four kids and has three of her own.  She goes through the Foster program.  She was impressed we had an indian foster boy and we have two adopted grandchildren. She said she will watch conference on the computer.
Glen and I made flyers up about General Conference and will take them around to as many families in the ward as we can this week.  It is a good way to get in the door.
