Pembaptisan tdk ada, tapi masih baik2 saja :

well i only have 15 minutes to write this, so it's gonna be quick...first, CONGRATS KEL AND ZAK! sweet action jackson! i'll start looking for little girls clothes now...i have a few ideas :) 2nd...the baptism didn't happen on saturday. wednesday night when we got home, sis lie informed me that sis zizi had minorly mentioned that vivi and her husband weren't officially married yet...they'd just done the church blessing thing, but hadn't gone thru the civil stuff, and that it'd all been cancelled because of vivi's dad not wanting to approve the marriage....well, the next day we canceled all plans for the baptism, and vivi went to go talk to her dad (apparently she had no idea, sis zizi hadn't told her), and it wasn't her dad's letter, it was some letter from the Pak RT, or kinda like mayor of their neighborhood, who hadn't been notified or something, and so THAT was why their paperwork hadn't gone thru, and ya...blah blah blah, a whole bunch of other things i don't quite understand, but basically she's done with all the lessons, and she'll be our investigator in Bali from now on, and as soon as their marriage license goes thru, she'll be able to get baptized in bali. so it's all good and well :)

this week has been busy...what i like about sis sari is that she'll go out and work. Its been a LONG time since i've been this tired. we started basketball at a university called Universitas Brawijaya, about 20 minutes from our house. the team is a LOT more competitive than in bandung (there's like 20 girls on the team, whereas in bandung there was like 5 that would show up to practice). friday i just scrimmaged with them, and was lucky enough that i hadn't lost too much of my touch (altho i'm REALLY gonna hafta work on my 3 again when i get home...after i airballed one, there was no way i was gonna shoot again). tuesday i practiced with them, but their warmup is SUPER long and they start late, so i only really had time for like 2 drills with them before i had to go. but it's fun...i love being able to play again! mom and dad, we'll be here on a friday, so i think i'll play while you're here, and you can meet the team. they're super cute.

bro paulus...we had a nice talk the other day, and after i asked him how serious he was about learning, he admitted that it's hard for him to read the BofM cuz his mind is on so many other things (money...) right now. we discussed and decided to meet once a week with him from now on, and we'll see how things go...i know if he became serious about reading, he'd find what he's looking for....but he's just too preoccupied. but i was grateful for his honesty. he liked the story of Lehi's vision

we have 2 new investigators, and they're pretty cool. we'll see how things go there. we're still working on our friend stella, who was super busy last week, but hopefully we'll find time to meet this week. things are good, busy....and i'm exhausted, but loving actually doing stuff! right now we're on our way to teach a new english class, so we'll see how that goes....busy busy busy! anywho, thanks for everything from you all, i love you so much! have a good one~
