Hey everybody, this week Rosa was finally able to get baptized. She has
been ready forever but we finally finished the lessons and got it done.
To help you all remember, we met her through a series of events all
starting with some guy in the street yelling "Joseph Smith is not in the
Bible." My companion months back Elder Arce contacted a lady who had no
interest, but the guy walked passed us and yelled what I wrote above.
Another lady came out of the house and said she had listened to
missionaries a long time ago, and then she also introduced us to her
neighbor (Rosa's older sister) and found Ivan (their inactive brother)
and then he introduced us to Rosa, who now just got baptized. Ivan is
now also coming to church as well. It was a great day. I know it is true
when Alma says that through small and simple things many great things
come to pass. We are slowly, one by one, helping this family accept the
gospel. Most of her family attended her baptism and really enjoyed the
service.
Today was Elder Beidleman's 21st birthday and had a
barbeque with some members and it was super good. In the morning we
played basketball and board games and a tiny bit of football (american).
Everyone had fun.
Hope you all are having a blast and remember to always be happy. Love you guys!
Elder Evans
