BAPTISMMMMM!!!
We had the greatest baptism of all time. Nobody's convert is as cool as ours. Jose Manuel is the coolest 13yr old ever. Despite the fact that we had the worst week of preparing for this baptism and that so many people bailed on us last minute for the baptism, we still had an epic turn out and so much spirit was felt!!
Lets just say that everyone and their dog decided to be busy the day of the baptism and bail on talks and doing our programs. So, last minute we threw a lame program together and got an awesome guy to give a talk. AND, thanks to our lovely American member, she played the most beautiful rendition of "If You Could Hie to Kolob" on the piano. It was GORGEOUS! Everyone was crying and there were SO many people that came from Jose Manuel's family that weren't members and lots of investigators came as well. It was amazing :) My favorite part was seeing Jose Manuel smiling ear to ear the entire time. It was also very special seeing his whole family there even though they are all less actives and are having a hard time coming back. They were so supportive of him and it was just incredible!!!
Other cool news, we are a few new investigators that we have been working very hard to teach. They are friends and family members of less actives and these less actives have finally given us their trust and love! YAY! I love miracles :)
Our new hija comes tomorrow....maybe. We hope! We are super excited! Lots of work is just booming in Puerto. It's cool to see how right when I came there wasn't much happening. But, now after lots of hard work we are seeing miracles right and left. Let's make this branch a Ward! We just have to baptize like 5 more Priests and they can be a Ward :)
Love you fam! Hope things are well with everyone. Happy almost Fall!!
Love
