We had a Baptism

HEy!!! now i am back from a crazy week and now i have some time to catch up with you!! last week we had zone conference, two exchanges and a baptism. i would like to tell you about the baptism that we had!! SO there was a guy that was visiting his family here in Sorriso and decides to go to church with his girlfriend over the holiday! we went to church for 3 weeks here and looked liked he just went to go with his girlfriend. We asked if we could visit him and he was a little reluctant but let us go to his house. We taught the 1 lesson but didn't go to well because of kids shouting and dogs messing around. we left his house and i told my comp that he just was curious about the church and doesn't want nothing more. Then we got an interesting call on Saturday morning. it was Rodrigo (who got baptized) and he told us that he prayed and wants to get baptized. it was a shock and he were really happy. we ran to his house and taught him all the lessons on Saturday, did his interview Saturday night and early Sunday morning he was baptized. then during sacrament meeting he was confirmed. It was a great experience for us and he was really grateful for all that we did. he was a guys that didn't want anything to the church, threw away his pride and followed the Savior. What a great mission story to tell when i get home!! So that was my week and hope to have more like it!!! take care.
