Hello
This week was way sweet! So I finally got to baptize Jemba. Funny story so at kind of the last minute i changed the baptism from the river in Grafton to the wellington chapel because they have a font outside and so i thought it would be better to be safe then sorry if the river was dirty again. So i called up the wellington elders they decided to join our baptism and then they arranged it all and so it was going to be good. So then that morning we get to the chapel and the font is empty. Now your all probably thinking why don't you just fill it up really quick. But when there is no running water that is a very difficult task. Our only options were to either gather the ward members and have them start drawing water from a near by well and carrying to the chapel in buckets and filling up the font. Or go hike up the mountain to this really cool pond with a water fall. So we chose the hike. So we called president and he approved it but he wasnt happy about it. So we hiked up the hill and it turned out to be a very cool experience. We had the service under this big tree with a little stream flowing next to us. Then we hiked up just a little bit to the pond and the water fall was in the back and we did the baptism i did it like a pro didnt even drop her haha. Im going to send pictures next week i tried to this week but the computer is all freaking out i don't know whats wrong with it. Anyways it was one of the most spiritual experiences i have had on mission. tomorrow Elder Cardon comes for a mission tour then on Wednesday we have zone conference with him I'm really excited. Being Senior companion is... very stressful my numbers were really low this week when turned them into the zone leaders and i didn't even have a senior companion to blame it on this time. But they said they new the numbers were going to be low because last week was a crazy week so they said it wasn't my fault.. and its not about the numbers right? But that's about it for this week. Thanks for all the love and support. I will try to get some pictures sent next week.
