Well, we had a really exciting week. We spent a lot of time finding and getting ready for the baptism, and we had a really great time. We also had exchanges with Elder Leavitt and Elder Sharp from my MTC group, and it was a lot of fun to serve with Elder Leavitt again. We taught János, one of the investigators that was baptized, and we had a great time overall.
We also found an investigator from Nigeria. His name is Kingsley, and he let us in after we told him we were sharing a message about Jesus Christ. We had a great lesson with him, it was really weird to teach in English, but it all worked out. He's really nice, he even fed us, which was unexpected. We had some Nigerian food, with Chicken Liver and heart in it, which was weird. The food was really spicy, but also rather tasty.
The best part of the week was the baptism. It was really amazing, everything worked out well. It was really great to see our investigators get baptized. They were all so ready and it was a wonderful baptism. The primary here (which ended up being 4 kids, and one of them was being baptized that day) sang "I like to look for rainbows" which was really nice. The whole baptism was a great experience, and there weren't any crazy mishaps, although two of the people did almost slip and fall. This Sunday will be their confirmations, which will be really exciting.
We also had the chance to watch General Conference, which was really great, although we couldn't watch the Sunday afternoon session. We're going to watch it later this week during district meeting. I really loved Elder Bednar's talk about meekness, and President Nelson's about getting personal revelation. This conference was really amazing, and I'm really excited to study the talks and learn more.
Szeretettel,
