Dear Everyone,
On Saturday we had a baptism! Antonio was baptized and it was a challenge to make it happen, but we did it. He and his wife live 40 minutes away in car and to get someone to drive us is a hassel. We ended up calling the entire ward the day before because the bishop told us he´d figure everything out and didn´t end up finding anyone. We finally got a British couple who had just moved into the ward to lend us a hand and pick Antonio and Gloria up for their baptism. Antonio has an impediment where one leg is shorter than the other and he doesn´t have much control of the shorter leg, so both me and my companion had to be in the font to help him. Gloria was so happy for her husband and now they have the goal to go the temple and be sealed in as soon as they can. This week as I kind of mentioned before, a British couple moved into the ward with plans to retire here. We spent a few hours helping them move their things and got invited over to eat with them on Wednesday. It´s completely different teaching and associating with people who speak English. They seem super excited to help us out even though they don´t know the language.
Elder Coleman
