Elder gave us the news that he had the special privilege of baptizing a young boy named Jesus. He shared the pictures today in his e-mail.
"We had a crazy week! The two highlights are that we did 140 contacts in the week (I've never done more than 60) and that Jesus and Daniel got baptized and confirmed!!!!!!!!! The baptism was awesome. Look at the pictures for a surprise. Jesus wanted me to baptize him. I was pretty nervous. I got out my sparkling white pants and tie out of my suitcase for the first time. I went slowly through the baptismal prayer. I was so nervous that I had forgotten his second name and asked him again in the water: Jesus Fransisco Ortiz Ortiz. The family is so awesome. Mauricio is progressing more and more. This past week we sat down with him and taught him personally the word of wisdom. We invited him to make a plan to stop drinking. They've been coming to church now for almost 2 months."
