Since tracting seemed unfruitful on the fourth of July, our Elders hatched a plan to launch a missionary lemonade stand. We set up next to a firework stand in a Wal-Mart parking lot. When people didn't appear in want of free lemonade (and pass-along cards, of course), we changed tactics. Sister Morrell and I approached everyone in line at the firework stand with cups and pass-along cards (this was well-received), and the Elders acted as welcoming crew of the Wal-mart parking lot. Their "free lemonade" sign wasn't nearly as fruitful as the "Honk If You Love Jesus" sign. The parking lot was a noisy, happy, honking, lemonade-drinking place on the fourth of July.
