This last week was week seven in the transfer, but that usually doesnt happen. In a transfer like yall might now there are six weeks but in this transfer we had seven because the change of the mtc with native speakers spending three weeks instead of two. so that is cool i got an extra week with my first companion elder cortes.
this week we went and said goodbye to everyone, well elder cortes did i figured out how to say... no i am staying here only elder cortes is leaving... very very good. haha we also had what missionaries dream off a baptism.
Maria was baptized this wee and i was able to do the baptism which was awesome and i loved it. we baptize in a little pool in the back of the church and the spirit was so strong. i also had to learn the baptism prayer in spanish so that was fun. haha i am just really happy right now and the mission is getting to feel more comfortable.
this week with easter we didnt do much because down here it is not that huge of a holiday besides at church where it is really the true meaning so that was good having the focus entirely on christ and not bunny rabbits.
anyways we went golfing one last time together for my dads birthday and a last hoorah. We in a whole just had a great time this week and having my first baptism was a great experience.
Well next week i will tell yall about my first week with Elder Peterson my new companion that is coming to Calafate tonight. I know that our Savior lives he suffered and died for each of us individually and i know that he is waiting with his arms open to accept us and help us in all of our struggles. He knows you perfectly and knows how to help. Please go to him and ask our Heavenly Father in prayer for his love and help. I know Jesus Christ will be there and He WILL help you in what you need. I love Him and can feel his love down here in the end of the world.
I know that we have living prophets and i invite yall to listen this weekend with an open heart to search for one thing just one little thing to change in your life to bring you closer to our Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ. I love you all and i am praying for your health and success in all your doings. Keep doing the simple things and you will be blessed.
Elder Saunders
