Dear Family,
It seems that November is flying by.
I can't believe it is getting so close to Thanksgiving. The holiday
parties have already begun in Pohnpei. The other night we went to visit a
less-active woman and she played her ukulele while we sang Christmas
songs with her family.
With all the parties going on, lots of our appointments fell
through. We were blessed, however, because it gave us the opportunity to
find many new investigators.
Wednesday
we noticed a flat tire on our car just as we were about to go out
teaching. We took it off and tried the extra tire in our trunk which
turned out to be too small. After one of the members analyzed the
situation he told us he could give our flat a quick fix that could get
us to Kolonia. He also told us we better get a new back tire because it
was so worn and bald. We began our drive to Kolonia and half-way there
the back tire popped just as predicted. Our zone leaders came to us with
a spare and as they changed it we got a large group of kids surrounding
us who had just gotten out of school. The tire was stuck on pretty bad
and when then Elders finally got it off all the kids clapped and
cheered.
We just put a man, his wife, and their oldest son on a
baptismal date for December. The man, Augustine, is just like a giant
kid and he always seems so eager to learn. It is a lot of fun teaching
them. They all came to church yesterday as did 6 other investigators.
One of them, Cindy, is getting baptized this Saturday. Things are going so well.
Love you all,
Sister Beutler
