Monte got baptized. I had the privilege of baptizing him personally so it was a pretty great experience. I'll attach the baptismal picture. It's a pretty festive picture if I do say so myself. It was definitely a festivus miracle
This is from a earlier letter
“We knocked into this old guy a
couple weeks ago named Monte Ross. I
think I mentioned him last email. We've
been teaching him, and we had a really good lesson on Friday and set a solid
date for him to be baptized because he's been really iffy about it. He said that once he knew the Book of Mormon
was true he would be baptized. Then he
texted us (a 72 year old guy, texts us all the time, like a teenage girl!) on Saturday
and said that he was ready to be baptized. AWESOME. He used to be a preacher for the Church of
Christ - those guys are way hard to preach the gospel to. So yeah, we're baptizing a church of Christ
preacher. We're his 5th set of
missionaries to teach him, and he finally wants to be baptized.”
