HELLLLLOOO!!!
Another week went by so fast! I am doing really really well. Lots to tell you so get ready!
So this week we started and we had a meeting with our Obispado our bishop and counselors about the progress in the ward. We talked about our baptisms and the one we had scheduled for saturday the 25. It was awesome becuase it was planned and everything and it was good to go, they supported us on it and everything. So you guys remember cecilia the girl that two months ago didn´t believe in God and then started to pray and everything? AAAAAHHHHHH she got baptized!!!!!!! it was the coolest thing ever. So the baptism we had planned for saturday with magali was set, but we no only had that one we had two together! it was so awesome. So the story with cecilia we callled her up and were like we are going to baptize you tomorrow this saturday! she said me. and we were like yes you! she then said I need to talk really well with you guys. So we met up in the church and finished teaching her and then she had her baptismal interview! She passed! It was such a blessing! So saturday comes around, ahhhh probably the best day of the mission so far! my first baptism! I was so nervous, I had to memorize the saying in spanish and all of it and I didn´t want to forget it. So I had my compy give me a blessing to help me in it. It helped me so much! My comp baptized Cecilia first! I was standing at the door of the fount and when she came out of the water it was so powerful, she put her hands over her face and was starting to cry, the happiness in her was finally all there! I had never seen it before, it was awesome. Then It was my turn to baptize Selene Magali Rodriquez. I escorted her down into the water, and explained what to do as best I could. then did the baptism. I was nervous but I said everything right and I DID it! ahhhhhhh I was so happy after! I loved every second of it! no doubt one of the best experiences ever! two baptisms in one day! It was such a blessing to see! the next day the confirmations went really well! everything worked out well! There were scares at times, we had to go find Magali becuase she didn´t have a ride to the church sunday morning! Woooo! loved this past week.
Today we all got together as a zone and played futbol and did Christmas in July! with white elephant gifts and such it was fun! The last week before the new transfer! it went by so fast! I will probably be getting anew companion and maybe a new area!
It was such a blessing this week, and I know that those decisions by those two girls to be baptized was a miracle!
I love you all so much! Miss you.
Elder Payton!
