Baptism!

YAY!  Manuel was baptized on Saturday!  It was super cool!  But, on Sunday, we had some problems with his transport (his car is broken, so we have to find him a ride) and so he didn't make it to sacrament meeting and wasn't confirmed... :( :( :( :( :( :( :( but, next week!  When I receive the package with the SD card thingy, I will send you a picture!  And as for Jennifer, we have no idea what is going on... :( :( :( since Elder Nelson and Elder Owens set the baptismal date, we have not been able to meet with them... :( They always cancel the appointments we have with them, or aren't even there... Nor do they come to church, which is a reason the dad will have to not let her be baptized...  So, hopefully we can figure out what is with them soon.  We haven't found Guillermo since we set  his baptism date either...  So, who knows? :(

We had apartment inspections last Wednesday and guess what score we received?  40!  The housing coordinator said this apartment has looked the best since ever!  So, that's cool.  All my inspection scores have been 39 or over.  :)

Saturday was a cool day!  The ward had an activity of the Pioneers (like Pioneer Day).  We didn't go, because we didn't have any investigators :( but, I heard it was fun!  Then, after, we had the baptism of Manuel!  That was super cool.  Then, a member dropped us back off at our house, and the Zone LEaders were waiting for us there because they had a sweet referral that they had received and wanted us to teach because the dad spoke Spanish.  Now, let me go back to Thursday.  We were out contacting and we talked to this kid named Isaac.  He didn't seem super interested, so we gave him a card for the movie "Finding Faith In Christ" and continued on our way.  But, it turns out he CALLED THE NUMBER.  I have given out thousands of cards, and have never had anybody CALL THE NUMBER (that I know of).  So, right after the baptism, we had a super cool lesson with this kid's dad (Isaac was there too).  The dad had talked to missionaries before, and they had given him a Book of Mormon and he said he has read it more than once!  And it shows too, because he has a knowledge of a lot of the stories.  So, the referral from the Zone Leaders was actually a contact from us!  The only problem is that the dad is a truck driver, so his schedule is CRAZY.  But, hopefully we can get something out of that family! 

Sounds like you are going to have a crazy week!  Sounds like a lot of fun though!  Wish I could be there!

I have no clue as to what is going to happen this next coming transfer... There are going to be 7 missionaries going home (3 Elders and 4 Hermanas) and not very many coming in... So... It will be another crazy transfer meeting!  Supposedly next transfer is when we are receiving a whole bunch of new Spanish missionaries. So, we will see what happens!  I think I might stay this one, and then leave the next one to train somewhere.  But, I don't know!  I have been telling Elder Owens he is going to train this next transfer too, just to bug him :) he doesn't want to train.  We don't have as many members in this area as I did in Rancho.  And about half of them are less active/inactive.  But, the members here are really good too!  I just talked a lot more about Rancho because it is my greenie area, and everybody loves their greenie area :)  we haven't had any youth come out with us yet.  There are only like, 2 that are able to do so...  And both are pretty busy... But, we are going to try!

I still have no riden the bike yet... There is a lot of construction going on in our area, and so the roads are smaller and riding a bike is harder...

Good luck on your trips and have fun! Have a wonderful week!

Love, Elder Hunt
