| This is the grandpa and Adrian; the branch presidents wife and her daughter |
Okay well cool ya boy Adrian got dunked!!!
So yesterday Adrian got baptized and confirmed by his grandpa. The grandpa asked us of course to join in on the circle! So that was super fun and very special for this family. They have had a really hard time trying to get the kids baptized in this family with their father not wanting it. Well Adrian is a sweet heart and he always has a smile on and has the goofiest personality. He was super excited to get baptized! Sonia came to the baptism with us as well. They announced her baptism in church and the ward is super excited for her to get baptized. In Adrian´s baptism they mentioned her getting baptized on Saturday like 3 times. After the whole baptism and confirmation Sonia went up and gave Adrian a hug, it was cute.

Okay so I had a good week and it was kinda normal besides the baptism. We taught Sonia a lot, she has been taught all the lessons now and is getting interviewed tomorrow for her baptism. She is so excited, she likes to scream and dance when she knows she is getting baptized. She kinda had a break down on Saturday because we were telling her that she can´t be baptized if she chooses to sin after her baptism. She started crying and then we recommitted her. So we told her this Saturday morning and then she prayed with us right before we left. It was the most powerful prayer I have ever heard someone say. She was literally pleading with God, she started crying at the first of the prayer it was sad. So we left her and told her she needs to figure out what she is going to do about her baptism. Sunday morning came around and she was ready to go to church and she told us that after we left she told herself that she wasn´t going to read or go to church but she woke up in the morning and couldn´t sleep so she got up and turned the light on and had to read and pray and then came to church! haha. She told us that she wants to be baptized. So Sonia is looking good and hopefully all will go well. She is going to go to institute this Friday, well every Friday with all the single adults. A lot of them speak English because they served in England and United States. So we did splits again on Friday because our District Leader had to come and interview Adrian, so I went with Elder Kirkham to teach Jhardelin and Patricio. We taught her the word of wisdom and it was a really good lesson. I love teaching with Elder Kirkham we do a good job together. Jhardelin just loved us! She made us bomb food. We talked a lot about her getting baptized and she said she will be getting baptized super soon. We went over the interview questions and she answered all of them perfectly. She is ready, but she worries a lot about HOW big the decision is to get baptized. She is doing well and really looks promising. We are still just searching for a lot of new people to teach and baptize. That kinda was a sum up of the week. We had training in San Fernando and I got interviewed by President Clegg. He told me that I have been in El Puerto for a really long time haha. So I am pretty much gone! He said he just looks at me and smiles haha I don´t know why! Well I love you family and hope you enjoy the pictures. Have a good week and I want to see pictures of the house.
