So I´m sending you pictures of the 2 baptisms we had this week, its kinda nice to get to a new area and have baptisms right off the bat. I even got to baptize one haha, it was really cool at the baptisms and the confirmations because the families were all there and they could see how it all goes. The first baptism was of Fernanda who was going to another ward, we taught her for the first time on monday and commited her to baptism for that same saturday, she was so excited for everything, and her mom now wants to baptized as well, unfortuntately she isn´t married to her husband! grr.
And the other young girl, her name is Maybé (my-BAY) haha, she should have been baptized last week but her house flooded becuase there has been SO MUCH RAIN!!!! so we got her dunked this week lol, we almost didn´t get it done because like we did it on sunday before sacrament but there is another ward that meets before us, so we asked the other elders to fill the font. So we went down to double check and they hadn´t done it. So we started it and just prayed that it would fill up enough by the time we got back with Maybé, fortunately by the time we got back it was full enough to baptize her and everything.
The ward has been helping us out a lot so we are very grateful because we have to a lot of things as Zone Leaders to do so yeah, but its going good and now I gotta go because we gotta hit up the office to drop off the baptismal records and what not.
TTYL,
Elder Patrik Connole
