Robert

There was a family in the ward who I never met. They never came to church. Single mom and two young kids. Elder frost and I went by every week and they never let us in so we started leaving notes. We sent them notes inviting both the kids to mutual. But then one Wednesday they walked in with their mom. The mom said they are free Wednesdays and they'll be at mutual. We got close with Robert the young man and invited him to church on Sunday. He came and saw the only other young man in the ward (we now have two) passing the sacrament and he asked the young men's leader how he could do that too. Then they had a lesson about the priesthood. Robert asked if he kept going to church if he could get the priesthood. He wants to pass the sacrament just like Simon. Two 11 year olds😂 seriously it is such a blessing for that age change. We will see if they keep coming to church but I count that just as Important as a baptism. Small Stupid notes left under the door has given this kid, a black kid with a single mother, with no friends and no real family, a home. He loved church. Who knows what will happen but if nothing else we've helped this kids life be better for a few weeks. To me that's just as good as a baptism.
