Happy Birthday with a Baptism


The baptism went really well! There was a really good turn out from the ward once again. Angelica asked a couple of the young women to be the speakers and they did awesome. The next person that we were working towards baptism with, Crystil's neighbor, hit some major stumbling blocks and it has really halted her from progressing towards that. But the miracle is that she attended Angelica's baptism because she wanted to support her! So it was awesome that she was able to be there to hear the young women give simple and sincere talks. And the Sister Missionaries, during the interlude time after the Baptism while Angelica and Elder Holt had to change, taught the Restoration and so that was really good for her to hear as well! 

Overall it was a great day. That whole family is doing so well and we are really excited for them. The rest of the week was pretty good. I don't remember a ton of what happened though. But overall it was good! We had an exchange with the Cascade Crest Elders, which was good. During the exchange, we were biking and saw someone far away so We went over to talk to them. They were getting in their car and weren't interested, but as We were about to leave, someone behind us starting talking to us. She is not a member, but her husband is and they have been taught off and on by some other Elders nearby. So we were able to have a good conversation with her ans encouraged her to start meeting with them again. I believe that the elders said that she came to church this week so that was good! We also had a great lesson this week with a less active sister that we are teaching. She has had such a strong desire to get on track and so it has been really great to see her progression. She has been to church three weeks in a row and is changing a lot! 

Brother Sauter from the ward brought Jake a cake and ice cream for his birthday on Saturday!
