After I wrote you guys on
Pday, we went out to eat as a zone to this Chinese restaurant named Khon Wa. I
had a steak. We then went as a zone to the temple of Kotosh. I didn't see a
temple, buildings, or ruins. It basically was as if we rented a grass field.
Good thing we only paid one Sol. We were probably in the wrong spot.
I got my package from you
guys on Tuesday and oh my word did you guys spoil me. It's seriously
ridiculous, it's all laying out my bed right now, I can't even tell you guys
how amazing it is! I got to organize it all, it all traveled pretty well, only
one of the little toothpastes exploded but that was it. I really like this new
white baptismal tie that you sent me. It's pretty sweet. It's kind of like a sparkly,
snowy camouflage tie. I'm going to wear it at the baptism.
Wednesday we had to drop
one of our investigators. She just wasn't progressing. I basically just told
her when you're ready we are here to teach you. Thursday and Friday we prepared
for the baptism. Johnny had his baptismal interview with Elder White and it
went great. We also had some lessons that went well.
Saturday we filled the
baptismal font and had Johnny's baptism. I was able to baptize him and it was
amazing! It was probably my favorite baptism that I've had so far. I didn't
have to worry about anything, it was nice and organized, people showed up on
time, it was just awesome! I really felt the spirit!! I am so happy! I am on
cloud nine! His whole family was there and now they want to join the church.
Johnny has a twin brother named John and now John has a baptismal date set for
the 28th of March! He has already attended all of the meetings that are required;
we just need to finish teaching him. We had investigators show up late, but
that's okay because I freaking love them! There were so many people there I am
just so, so very happy right now! I just need to remember that when the bad times
come, the good times like this are always on their way. Seriously, please
remember that things always do get better; if you are doing the right things
you will be rewarded! That's one of the things we teach. It's one of the
simplest promises and principles of God. Your obedience will always bring
blessings! I love you guys so much! Have a great week.
