Apurado!


Hey Everybody!

I apologize in advance, we travelled today to play soccer with another zone, so I´m short on time again!  I´m here with Elder Hakes, one of the zone leaders, because he´s going to interview more of our investigators!  Also going to help me with a big family that the other missionaries are teaching.

This week Maria Elena got baptized.  She´s Consuelo´s older sister (see previous emails!).  She is doing really well now, and we had to wait a little longer because of the interviews, stuff like that.  But it all turned out well.  She´s a manager at one of the grocery stores here in Guaranda, so we had quite a few of her fellow employees attending the baptism!  Some of them in uniform.  Ha!  It went well though, besides the fact that somebody disconnected the water heater and the font was cold!  Elder Cruz was telling me how cold the water was as we filled the font, when Maria Elena called me and said she wanted Elder Cruz to baptize her!  He was happy to do the baptism, not too thrilled about the cold water!  All went well though.

My pictures didn´t turn out too well, so I´ll be sending some next week!  We did get to know the new mission president.  He was working in the area offices before in Peru.  He´s a nice guy, so is his wife.  We got interviewed by them both, and they´re really great.  They´re from California, several children, he´s really tall, etc. 

More updates next week!  Off to get some interviews done!  See ya!

Love,

Elder Wallace
