This week was pretty crazy, but pretty cool. So it was already crazy because of transfers, then, one of the sisters in our branch got transferred. She told one of their investigators on Sunday and he asked when she was leaving, her train was for Thursday morning, so he said he wanted to be baptized on Wednesday night!! So Monday was at Pompeii, Tuesday we spent planning the baptism, and getting his interview done.
He is a twelve year old boy that I have taught quite a bit and was incredibly prepared, and it took one of the missionaries leaving to give him that final push. And I didn't know at the time, but he wanted me to baptize him, and he told me 20 minutes before! haha So it was a rush to try and find clothes and everything for everybody! But it was a super awesome experience, his name is Alfredo! Cool huh?!
Thursday was transfer day, so a lot of that time is spent in Napoli making sure nobody is alone and everyone catches their train. Friday morning we went and set up for the carnivale party, and we had to be there to fill up the font (because it takes 6 hours) because the Caserta Anziani had a baptism there, pretty cool we got to see 4 baptisms in a week! And so that makes 4 baptisms for our area this year!
We have been working a lot with our new converts and helping them continue to become integrated to the branch and getting them ready to receiver the priesthood!! This transfer will be super fun because we have gotten so many member referrals lately that our days are so filled we barely have time to eat!! The party was cool and we had tons of members and investigators show up and they all had a good time. And we have a new American family here for a month who is from Ucon and was the wrestling coach of some of my cousins at Bonneville! haha He said he wants to come to my homecoming! So that will be sweet!
That is it for this week, I promise some pictures will come soon, but I tried uploading some here at the Internet point so now my sd card has a virus so I don't know what to do, help Ryan! Love y'all!!!
