Santa Rosa

This week we had the baptism of a 17 year old teenager we`ve been teaching. He has 3 uncles that are members in the ward, one of who is the 1st counsler in the branch presidency. It was a special baptism; Many of his family members who are members of the branch attended, including his 3 uncles and many cousins! He studys, and works with his Dad selling Ceviche (a South American dish with shrimp, onion, tomato, lemon juice, etc.) Way excited that he got baptized.

   We are teaching a few other investigators, including a guy who works in the mines, a lady that has a cool parakeet or whatever you call that, and a few others.

   I was way happy that this Sunday the two men of the family we recently baptized recieved the priesthood, the same day my brother recieved the priesthood as well! They came with white shirt and tie which was awesome. I`m loving being here in the mission! I love this gospel and know the hapiness it brings. 

Just keep swimming,
