Elder Kakau is back
in my ward and had a baptism on Saturday. In the time when he was
changing into dry clothing after the baptism itself and before we finished the
meeting, Elder Corvalan and I taught the restoration with several non-members
there. The spirit came super strong when we testified of the authority to
baptize. It went really well. The air conditioning even cut out exactly when my
comp started quoting the first vision. It was pretty incredible.
F. is doing doing well. He came to the baptism this weekend and got his interview
with bishop and then was at church. We hear the interview went well and he LOVED
the YSA (young single adult) Sunday School class we sent him to in church
this week. We have one of the YSAs in the ward coming to a lesson with us for
him tomorrow night! Bishop basically told him he has to make his decision
between the gospel and playing the drums. I think he really liked it.
Transfers are coming up. People are getting anxious. President
Black announced in the temple this morning that this transfer is goin to
be it. Whichever mission you’re in, you'll stay in. So one week and a couple
days till everyone finds out what mission they’ll be in when the
mission boundary changes come July 1. We’re
getting 27 new missionaries in the mission this transfer and 23 the next – a lot!.
One day this week I
was on splits with one of the district leaders (where one of them goes
with me and the other goes with my companion), and we were tracting when a
17ish yr old black high school kid opened the door. The DL gave
his little intro and asked if that’d be something he'd be
interested in and I quote the reply......."Heeeeeaaall yeah it is!" ‘
