My companion, Elder Akina, is not from China, although that's what was written on his visa. While filling out his paperwork to apply for his visa, he misunderstood the difference between nationality and ethnicity, so he wrote that he was of Chinese nationality. When we recently went to the Foreign Police to correct that error, the Slovak police thought it was their mistake, thinking one of their guys mistook my companion for a Chinaman. So they corrected the error for free, expedited processing. What an interesting turn of events.
Michal, what a legend. We had the privilege of baptizing him (in a swimming pool of all places), and he bore humble testimony that he knows the journey ahead will be challenging, but worth it. He understands that baptism isn't the end, but the start of a life committed to Christ. I see great potential in him, and he's already been quite the example for me.
