She loved EFY, she loves the church, she lvoes it all and knows it all is the truth, the only problem is she is 15 and her parents dont want her to get baptised... We actually where going to baptise her this week, but come the day of her baptism we get a phone call saying that her parents say no... They want her to focus on school first... I dont understand it, but what can we do anyways right? Ifthey say no, we cant do anything... WE are going to go back and see if we can help the parents understand that it is something that will help her in school and in life... One day she will get in the water, I just dont know if it will be us though... We will see.
Yup, you told me about the missionaries teaching PRimary! That is cool though!
The thing with moving up to Utah right away is then I can just get a job up there and get settled up there and go right into school. If I get a job down in Texas then I get settled down there, then school comes around, I have to quit my current job, move up to Utah, find another job, get settled, all that with the stress of school... I dunno I just figured I should start seriously thinking about this as it is only 5 months away... I have been thinking mainly just BYU-P Maybe UVU as well... I have looked around a bit for other colleges but BYU seems to have the best art program.... What do you guys think?
Well, I did have one dunking this weekend. Naomi. She is the daughter of an inactive family that we are trying to reactivate. So far things are doing good! She has a sister that came to church that is not yet baptised either, so maybe she will get in the water as well, guess we will see soon!
Other then them and that girl that went to EFY, we really dont have much else. We found some news last week, that seem pretty promising... Ummm
Well, I have an interesting story to tell.... So we where walking over to the church on Friday I think and a drunk guy contacted us. It was the normal schpeel that drunks give, so we wrote down his address to see if we could teach him. Went to his house and as we approached we saw a big group of people surrounding a funeral car truck thing. We thought, well maybe someone in the family died that lived next door, so we decided to come back later. When we come back we knock on the door and the guys mom comes out and we ask for him. After a moment of a bit of awkard silence, she says he past away the other day... It was kindof awkard, honestly. So we offered our sympathy and help, and went our seperate ways... We also offered to come back and share a message anbout Christ and the way we will be able to see our lioved ones again. IT was cool, and very interesting, so this week we go back to her...
Ok, well other then that, this week was boring... Just kinda chugging along!
Love you guys alot!
Take care
