Our 4th of July was spent differently than we have ever spent it.  We almost forgot it was the 4th until Sister Primali emailed and wished us a happy 4th.
We have been involved in several different things this week but one of the best was going to Negombo for Elder Meyers to interview four people for baptism. Then the next day he interviewed Patricia here in Colombo for baptism.  It is awesome to see these wonderful people embrace the gospel.  We just hope that they remained true and faithful and endure to the end!
This evening we hired a driver and took Brother Muthu to visit one of his home teaching families.  This is a wonderful family that was very active at one point in their life.  They have been to the temple, served in many leadership positions, and due to trials and challenges have left the Church.  Brother Muthu shared a powerful testimony with them.  All of us had tears in our eyes as he testified of the truthfulness of the gospel and the reality of Heavenly Father and His son, Jesus Christ.  The family consist of Brother Castro, Sister Darshiny, Cathburg (a 13 year old daughter), Jedrick (an 11 year old son) and Cazindra (a 9 year old daughter).  They asked that Elder Meyers bless their home and promised that they would see us at church. 
Yohan came to church again today.  He gave the opening prayer in Sacrament Meeting. We were so happy to see him participate.  Just a month ago he wasn't coming to church at all.
Elder Meyers attend a training meeting for auditors.  The couple doing the training is a senior couple serving out of Hong Kong.  They are the Taylors and they are from Nampa.  Several years ago Brother Taylor was our State Representative in Idaho. They knew Brad and Teresa Little.  It is always nice meeting people that know people that we know.
Life is good.  The gospel is true! We are happy serving the Lord!
