Baptism :)

This week was awesome!!
Or weekend i should say  i had my first baptism and he's a way sweet guy who really deserved it :) It was this saturday at 4 and it was definatey a cool experience too. So, first of all the font. The font looked normal and was pretty normal except for a big yellow spot that came from the faucet...um and so when they turned it on it got all smeared around and i was like//holy cow..that'll go away right? cause it was really gross...it did though but the water here doesnt have chlorine here and well it was really gross. The water was like a yellowish brown and you could kind of see the bottom of the font. I didnt want to go in there let alone totally immerse someone in there...but when the time came around and we got in the water... it all went away and i really didnt care. Wearing that cool white clothes was awesome too :). What was even more interesting was we didnt get the water high enough and even though we checked many times...it still was too low...so bishop had us kneel..yah kneel in that dirty water...but it still  worked out anyway. Then on sunday we got to see him where the white shirt and tie i gave him...and it was cool to see :) 4 of us 5 elders gave him a tie...so that was cool. Then he got to be officially become a member of the church and received the Holy Ghost :) Then later he received the Priesthood and that was really cool to see just because ive had friends that ive dreamed of this for and none of them have come this close and it was just like a dream come true just to finally see someone i care so much about, who was my friend, take those steps. Later he mentioned how happy he felt and just kept repeating it :) i was like thats the Holy Ghost :) Youre gonna feel like that all the time :) and so that was it :)...he was really shy on sunday but it was still just cool to see him take those important steps in the gospel :)
Thats it for now...the work is moving :)
