Week 55: Baptism of Sister See



So to start, last p-day I got to play some tennis and I'm way rusty. I haven't played sports in a year and I honestly feel so uncoordinated now but it's all good. Today for p-day we went with some members to this really strange but cool place. It was called บทเรียนในความมืด which means "A lesson in the dark". Basically we went through this maze in the dark with walking sticks for over an hour and it was actually way cool. It was pitch black and I was really confused by the end of the maze haha. 


This was such a wonderful week as I got to see another person enter the waters of baptism and start on the covenant path. Sister See was straight fire and without a doubt prepared by God. She was baptized yesterday and has such a strong testimony already!! Literally right after her interview she came into a lesson with another person we are teaching and began to help us teach! 


This week we have really been trying to prepare some more people for baptism. We are teaching this guy named brother Q. He has been to church so many times and a bunch of other activities. He is friends with everyone in the ward and will get baptized for sure. He just wants to wait a little longer because he doesn't feel ready. He is such a beast though and is way ready!!! 


Another person we are teaching is this lady named Rose. We have been teaching her for a while and she is progressing. She has been baptized twice already and doesn't want to be baptized again though. She really wants to follow Jesus Christ and says she just needs some time to really study everything out. I'm really excited to see her continue to progress and learn. 

Cool experience:

We went to visit Brother Min, our RC.  When we went to leave there were no taxis around. Brother Min lives in the back of his neighborhood (a long way back) and it was already 8pm. With no taxis or tuk-tuks around, my companion and I started walking to the front of the neighborhood, once we made it out there were still no taxis in sight. Again, we began to just walk hoping to find a taxi even though we were miles away ... and out of nowhere this ตุ๊กๆ tug tug picked us up and dropped us off at the main road. He didn't even want to take any money for the ride.  It was a miracle and such an answer to our prayers! 

Last thing...on Sunday this family of five walked into the church and they are so sick (awesome)! We invited them to attend sister See's baptism and they did. I have wanted to baptize a family for so long, so I'm really excited to start teaching this family!!  Families are the most important in our society.  Helping a whole family come closer to Christ will be a great joy.

Ok love you all!! Talk to you next week.
