So, we have had some very, very cool things happen. I've been in Yakima for almost a month now. When I got here, this area was pretty dead. But now, we have a baptism this Saturday, and another one scheduled for next week. And please don't think that I'm saying that because I think I'm so great, and that I did so much. I'm saying it because I know that Heavenly Father rewards us when we are trying our hardest to improve and to do His will.
Brian, the person getting baptized on Saturday, is awesome. He has completely stopped drinking, is paying his tithing, has come to church every week I've been here, and has an incredible testimony. Right before I got here, he had failed his baptismal interview the day before his baptism. He just was not ready. But now he is. He is absolutely incredible. He has completely changed his life, and is now ready to make a sacred covenant with God.
We have had a lot of cool, small miracles. Like locking ourselves out of our apartment, and only being able to get in because we left a window unlocked the night before when Elder Brinkerhoff burned our pizza. :) And other cool things like that. God is very aware of our lives, and He can take an active role, but only when we ask Him to.
Have a great week!
Elder Plehn
