On Saturday we had the baptism of Jairo. and then on Sunday he asked me, the bishop and the 1st counselor to confirm him. I also had the chance to give a talk in the sacrament meeting. It was a good day.
Well this week went well. We had a baptism on Saturday in La Rita. It went well. We had ask the missionaries that were in the chapel to fill up the font and they said they would and we arrived for the baptism and they were by the door and said the key never worked and they couldn't fill it... so it wasn't filled but the good thing is. is that its a new baptismal font! and so it filled up super fast! so every turned out okay. It was a great Baptism. As I said in the other email. He investigated the church for 2 years and then finally decided it was time and accepted a baptismal date and was baptized!
That same night we had a ward missionary activity. We had to make about 95 sandwiches because the elders quorum dropped out and couldn't bring refreshments so with the sisters we made a bunch of them haha.
On Wednesday, the district meeting went well. And then I went to Puerto Viejo, Sarapiqui. I did a few baptismal interviews. We had to take a small boat to cross the river to get to the house of the investigator! I was doing some baptismal interviews. To get there we had to take this boat. : D
I went to go do some baptismal interviews and in order to arrive we had to cross the river in this boat!
Over all this last week went well. We have a baptism this coming Saturday as well. We are working with a good guy named Felix, We have been teaching him but yesterday in the lesson something clicked and he looks pretty excited now. We are working with a few families. Norbell and Rocio and their kids, Brandon and Cristal. Pray for them. They are set to be baptized in June.

Today was a good day. We went up in the mountain to a place called Bella Vista. A member let us go to their house. They came and picked us up in the morning and took us to the house about a half an hour away in car. they fed us breakfast and lunch. We played Volleyball and behind his house is the jungle so we took his machete and hiked into the jungle haha it was just like Tarzan making our own way, cutting pathways and vines.
Tarzan-----ahhhhhhhhhh!!!! with machete and all !!!!! :o)
Some Tender mercies. Well We had a really good lesson with Norbell and his family. He really expressed his desire to become better. He expressed those feelings of sins that one carries and we were able to talk about the atonement and Isaiah 1:18 and how he can get rid of those feelings and it was a good spirit.
Have a great week!
Love you all--
