Ya'at'teh' everyone!
So to explain the title, China Star is a Chinese Buffet here in Tuba City. But that isn't what got baptized. Her name is Andrea, we just have nicknamed her China Star because she worked at China Star for a while, and that's the name we gave her before we figured out her real name, haha. Elder Hudak and I found her and started teaching her, and there is a really funny story as to how this all started but that is for another time. All that is important is that she was so golden and elect and has started taking steps towards returning to Heavenly Father's presence. Here she is...
Oh that is my companion Elder Huff, so yes I am back with someone who is a foot taller than me...
Anyway like I was saying, she is so awesome! She is really smart, and had graduated high school with a 2 year college degree or something like that. She actually was going to a different church when we found her, and for some reason she never got baptized there but really wanted to get baptized. She just does so much for the community and her family, and pretty much everyone, and she is so into the church and all the programs it has to offer, and she has committed to not miss church, because she really enjoys it. She is going to go down to Phoenix to do some college program there in a couple of weeks, and it will last about 5 weeks, but even though it's a three and a half hour drive from here to there, she said she will make the drive every weekend so she won't miss church. Yeah, I was blown away, cuz I don't know that I would have done that. That's obviously something I need to work on, haha. She is also really excited to go to the temple as well. But yeah there are so many great things and blessings in store for her as she continues to follow the path that Heavenly Father has for her.
Transfers are this weekend, so we will find out if I leave or stay. I am praying that I stay, and hopefully y'all will do the same, haha. But that is about all I have for this week.
Love y'all,
Elder Takis
