rainstorms and creative baptisms


Last monday we got stuck out in a huge rainstorm. We thought the world was going to end. But we got completely soaked thorugh in just one minuit outside, and it looked like we just had jumped out of a swimming pool. (dont worry, my face doesnt always look like this, but i didnt know that the camera was going to take the picture) PS, the awesome tie was given to me by an investigatorr called Nibia who will get baptized soon... if she lives long enough. She is in the hospital with cancer and might not make it out!.

Just a picture of the typical Areoparque layout. 

Us and Alvero with his mom. 


First things first, Alvero got baptized! He is an awesome 13 year old boy that is the son of a Less active member. We found him because the members. The baptism was really crazy. We turned the water on like 5 hours before the service, which is what we always do. But when we got there there was only like a foot and a half of water to baptize him in. So when he got baptized, we said the prayer, then he laid down full-out on the floor of the font, then my companion (who did the baptism) just pushed all his floating clothes and body parts down under the water at one time. haha but the baptism happened and was perfectly valid :) Not even a shortage of water can stop the work of got from progressing. 

Well, thats all ive got time for. Thanks for all your prayers! I love the mission and pray for my investigators and district.
