Looking for microfilm of a Catholic parish in Yuma, Colorado

A researcher said he saw a Catholic baptism record for one of my ancestors (William Fastner born May 19, 1894, Yuma, Colorado). Does FamilySearch have baptisms on microfilm for Yuma, Colorado?

Were any records filmed from the Diocese of Colorado? Another researcher in 1982 purchased the following roll of film from the Denver Diocese, but I'm not sure if that covers Yuma:

St. Augustine's Church and Missions
Brighton, Colorado 1887 - 1948

I imagine a missionary priest traveled from place to place in 1894.

    Yuma is part of the Archdiocese of Denver, today. You might contact the Archdiocese for help in finding the record.

    I did ask them years ago and they could not find the microfilm or book. My question today was, are the records already at FamilySearch?

    I'm not staff or a mod, but I did not find a specific film for Yuma in the catalog. Mission records are often grouped without that specific information listed in the title; I've seen that in my work with early mission churches in NYS along the Canada border.
