So it sounds like you're having a bit
of a drought there in Utah? We are too! In fact, some of the
kampungs ran out of water last week and they had to bring around trucks full of
water for people to come fill up buckets. We helped Acha's family get their
water. We were all running around like mad with everyone else in the
kampung. I think they were shocked to see the orang putih in line at the
water truck with a bucket also.
Acha & co. (round one) were
baptized last Friday and confirmed on Sunday! It was a loooong baptism
with eight people, but so good! We’re continuing to teach about 7 others
in the family, hopefully getting them baptized at the end of this month. So
things are good. The most amazing thing to see was the confirmation.
One of the daughters is a bit of a rebel to say the least, but a complete
physical change came over her when she was confirmed and received the gift of
the Holy Ghost. It was a privilege to witness it. I love that I get
that chance to see the progress in people as they come closer to the Saviour.
Jong is doing awesome also, we met
with her husband, Sony (Shony? Shonny? not sure) for a full lesson
last week and he wants to be baptized with her at the end of this month. We
invited him to say the prayer at the end of the lesson and he said he didn't
know how, to which Jong responded by smacking him and saying, "I already
taught you how!" hah they're such a cute couple. Still in
their 20's and all flirtatious with each other…you can tell they have a good
friendship. Anyway, when we taught about the Book of Mormon, Jong shared
her testimony of how she feels when she reads the book. It was out of
this world amazing!
I love you all! Happy Fourth of
July!

Acha & family! Happy Day!
