Letter 4/8/13
Family, well it was a busy week last week. First it started with a bad
p-day. We had to take a jeep for two hours to go to the mission office
so we could have one of our investigators interviewed by the President.
It kind of messed up the whole day but it was good she passed and she
will be baptized the following Sunday. A few days later we were stopped
by a trike driver. He yelled and said I want to talk to you. He cuts
us off and starts yelling at us. He said we paid him with fake money.
We had no idea what he was talking about. We ride like 30 trikes a week
and he said that we rode his and paid him with fake money. We were
just like okay calm down we will pay you. Then he wouldn't take the
money. Really weird then he said I know that your instruments in the
hands of God and that he studies our book and goes to church. So to
finish it off he invited us over to come and teach him later so it
turned out alright. Not sure why he was so mad and then nice all the
sudden. Then the next day we were asked to cast a spirit our of a house
so we are going and first thing you see in the house is a kid chained
to a bench. It was so gross. These people are all crazy. They said if
he isn't chained he will run away and get hurt. He is a handicapped
kid. Then the lady starts showing the stuff she was messing with .
They told us it was a weejee board but it turns out she had just made up
some paper and really it was nothing she was just crazy. So nothing
happened. Then on Sunday we had five baptisms planned it was going to
be great. They all came and are ready. They were all excited and
ready. Everything was going great. The font was filling. Just for a
little bit though. There was no water left in the church so the font
got about 6 inches full and that was it. The whole church was dry no
water. So we start trying to fix it. I realized how helpless these
people are they all would just stand around and do nothing so I had to
go into the water supply room and fix it. I could only get a little
water to come out so we found a hose and we found a way to get water but
it was very slow. We almost rescheduled but Sister Fina said I can't
let Satan win it has to be today. So we baptized 5 people. We had them
sit in the font and I knelt behind them and in about 16 inches of water
we baptized them all. After Sister Fina bore her testimony. She said
she felt like Jesus was holding her and putting her under the water.
she was dead serious so that was cool. So that was all last week. The
baptisms went good and it was all good. It's crazy how strong Satan
really is and the things he will do to stop people from baptism but as
Sister Fina said you can't let him win. Well thanks for all of the
support I love you all a ton. I'll be calling next month. I'll try and
make it so it is Sunday night there but we will see. Email me and tell
me what works best. Love you thanks again for everything your all
great. Love Elder Robison
