We attended a baptism of Jose Amado Cordero Sisa Saturday evening. He is a young man that befriended us at the institute. He has been attending the institute and taking classes there for some time. Elder and Sister Roberts are a missionary couple who are over the Perpetual Education Fund and work in the institute building became acquainted with him when they first arrived a couple of months ago. As they got to asking about why he was not a member he said that the missionaries were going to stop and see him but never did and no one has asked him since! Sister Roberts jumped right on it and within a few weeks he was baptized. He is a wonderful young man who is sooooo excited about the gospel. We attended his ward today when he was confirmed a member of the church and given the gift of the Holy Ghost. He was also sustained and was ordained a priest after the meetings and we were able to participate in that as well. He lives in a strong ward with good supports at the church. His mother is a member but inactive. He is an excellent example of why we should always ask!
