Philip is Baptized in The Hague

Philip Elondo, The Hague, June 5, 2010

Philip was found while he was delivering papers at the end of the concecrated hour. He was given a card and asked to come to church and he came. He was taught twice but it just wasnt clicking for him. The third lesson we had President Brubaker with us but we were still wondering what we should do. We didnt want to waste our Joint Teach and watch a movie, but we felt that is what he needed. We watched the movie and Pres. fell asleep. To Philip it was the switch. He had that visual and since the time he was just awesome. At the end of the lesson president invited

him to be baptized. I had done it twice before but it didnt work, but he said yes. After that it was history. He has come to church, he has

been to 4 members houses to be taught and fed. He has loved the church and the other week he was praying and he said he was so thankful for the church, he is excited to be baptized, and he always wants to come to church and read in the scriptures. He was nervous on his baptisimal date, but after he was baptized he was like,"Is that it? That wasnt too bad! June 5th was the magical date for him!
