Elder Tyler Jones week 83

Sounds like you guys are keeping pretty busy.

Herbert has since gotten cold feet and has decided not to be baptized. He still really enjoys church but he is a bit nervous. So we’re meeting with him Tuesday to talk to him s little bit more and to see if there’s anything we can do to help.

There’s a man named gerrardo in the branch that we’ve been working with. He’s started to get pretty serious about being baptized. He is the boyfriend of one of the members of the  branch. He is married to a woman in Mexico but lives with his girlfriend and 3 kids here. So he is working on getting divorced and then remarried to his girlfriend here in order to be baptized. It’s going to be a bit complicated but he’s determined to be baptized on may 9th. So we’re really happy for them and their family.

Alberto, the father of the ramirez-Perez family has not budged. He really is intent on not being baptized until he feels like being baptized. So we’re going to try to give him some space and hope for the best.

 

Today a member from the English ward gave the elders a giant box of chicken jerky. They own a grocery outlet, which is the west coast equivalent to aldi. They had a bunch of chicken jerky they couldn’t sell so they gave it all to the missionaries. So now we have a giant box full of jerky in our apartment.

So things are going good for us,

I hope you have a great week!
