Hasta la Vista, Buhl!

Tina and Junior, who were recently baptized in Buhl, had stopped coming to church because someone offended them over something dumb. So they had been avoiding the missionaries. Finally they caught them outside of their house and talked to them, sorting through all of their issues. And they came to church on Sunday!

The Ehresman family was set to be baptized, but the mom was having second thoughts because her mom was very anti-mormon, but they worked everything out and she is going to do it! The dad is a member, the mom and 2 children will be baptized on April 10.

They met a guy named Travis who said he was really interested in learning about the church. But he was never home. They were eating at a restaurant in Buhl and Travis came in with his girlfriend and was seated right behind Nick. He started asking lots of questions and said he isn't home too often but he really does want them to stop by.

They have a crazy, less active member who constantly asks them to call the bishop for her and ask for money, or she wants them to help her clean her house. So Nick told her they would set up the appointment at church on Sunday, and she wasn't there. So he's hoping to leave Buhl before he has to talk to her again.

Someone brought their two dogs to church on Sunday...only in Buhl. But they got kicked out, so the dogs waited outside.

They had intervies with President Yardley, and Nick asked to go back to Junior companion and to serve with his friend, Elder Neville. President Yardley had said it might happen, but now wants Nick to be a district leader, and then a zone leader before Pres. goes home in July. Nick said it's early, but if that's what President Yardley wants, he'll do it! He's looking forward to going to Kuna, which is near Boise. And here's the funny thing...he'll be co-senior companions with Elder Scott Garlock from our stake. They weren't close friends but do know each other, and I'm friends with Scott's mom, Eileen.
