Brett-June 22, 2009

Well I hope y'all have had as good of a week as I have. It sounds like y'all have. I guess first things first...my new comp is Elder Jenkins from the one and only sin city, Las Vegas. He has one transfer out and was trained by the Zone Leaders up in Amarillo. He's a stud. He's 6'2" about 215, loves sports, played volleyball and football at Silverado HS. But best of all he's excited about the work and is ready to work hard!! The Lord is blessing us for our hard work. This Saturday we will be having the baptisms of Ovidio Reyes and Zuli Ramoz. Ovidio has been an investigator for years and finally turned his faith into action, started reading and praying and coming to church, and is finally ready to get baptized. I guess he almost got baptized a couple of years ago but bailed at the last minute so PLEASE pray for him this week. I know its going to happen this time. Zuli Ramoz is a 10-year-old girl, she lives with her adopted parents so Sis Ramoz had to get the papers this week saying that she is the legal guardian so that we can go ahead with the baptism. So Sis Ramoz told us Saturday that she got them so were going to be having her baptism with Ovidio's. It's going to be a great week. Sunday was a pretty fun day this week. In the morning we went over to Ovidio's and cooked breakfast for him and his wife and made sure that he was coming to church. He brought his wife with him to church which is a miracle as well and she said that she is going to come down for the baptism next weekend. She lives in Dallas...its a long story. We also made some cookies for some of our investigators and members of the branch for Fathers day. That was pretty cool they loved that. Things are going good here in San Angelo. We've got a lot of new investigators and we're going to do quite a bit of finding the next couple weeks so that the work isn't dead after the baptisms this weekend. I know there was more I wanted to tell you about but I can't remember right now...I hate when that happens. Well I hope all is well back home and y'all had a happy Father's Day. Have a great week.
Elder Harber
