Baptism of Hermano Miguel Angel
Just another cool sunset.

Hola familia!

How is everyone? I love you all so much! I am doing dandy here!! We had an awesome baptism this last weekend! Hermano Miguel Angel! WOOOOO I am so excited for him! He is the coolest guy ever! I attached a picture of his baptism here! I got to baptize him and it was really really cool! I love it when I get to do the baptisms! He has such a strong testimony of the gospel and especially about the authority and the priesthood! He studies a lot and does a lot to learn! He loves reading the Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants! I love it!!

So anyway, I love hearing from all of you each p-day! I love hearing the news and how everyone is doing! Thanks for all the pictures this week! I love seeing you all and seeing that you are all doing so well!!!

So this week was really good! We had the baptisms like I already told you guys, but it was really cool! Another really cool thing happened this week! So we were looking for a referenece and we couldn't find the house, so we started knocking doors looking for the person. At one house, a lady had moved. I asked her if she knew where the person lived and she told me she didn't and that her and her family had recently moved there. I asked from where they came and she told me that it is from San Marcos! That is part of my old zone! So I told her that I lived there and I asked her if she had talked to missionaries before. She said no but that her husband had! So her husband came out and told us how about 12 years ago, he met the missionaries and that he LOVES the church! He has read the Book of Mormon and loves church but he could never get baptized because of his dad. So, we went into the house and started talking to him. He told us that his wife as well didn't like the church but that he really wanted him, his wife, and his daughter to go to church! So we gave him our phone number and said we would come back this week. Anyway, Saturday morning he called me up and asked if we could meet! We said that we had a baptism and that we would be busy but that he could come to the baptism. He said that something really good had happened, we asked what it was and he told us that his wife had decided to give the church a chance! He said that they would be coming to the baptism and that she wanted to see how it was there! And then the real miracle, they came to the baptism!!! WOOO it was so cool! They are so awesome and I love seeing them! They look so happy and just like a perfect couple! We will be going back to visit them tonight! YAY! Their names are Jorge (Dad, 28 years old), Maria (Mom, 27 years old), and Rut (Daughter, 7 years old). They are awesome!!!

Anyway, that was about all that happened this week! I am really excited to keep working and hopefully the Familia Abregos baptism will be this week or next week! It's going to be cool!!! Sorry I didn't write very much today but I hope that you all like the pictures!! I love you all so much!!!!

Stay close! Love you!!!

Love,
Braden
