Another happy Monday to yall. I´m a bit tired, Imma try to make this email short and sweet.
Transfers came. Nothing changed haha. I will stay here in Loulé, Quarteira, and Albufeira for another at least 6 weeks. And, I will be continuing with Elder Jan. So, everythings pretty chill there. In fact, there wasnt a single change in my district haha.
This last Saturday, one of our investigators, Maria, was baptized. Elder Jan performed the ordinance, everything ran pretty well. She is a very special woman, and it was a pleasure to teach her for the short time I did. In fact, in her conversion, I did virtually nothing. Elder Jan and his previous companion found her and taught her everything.
The baptism ran well, but unfortunately no one showed up... only our branch president and his wife, Nina (an investigator), and Luisa, Maria´s cousin, and a couple other missionaries.
Even so, it was a special experience for her. She was confirmed in church yesterday.
Just before the baptism, I got to hold a baptismal interview with an older fella, and investigator from the sister missionaries. The interview ran well, it was cool to get to know him and his life a little bit, and help another soul be baptized.
This week we did an especially large amount of teaching. We have a decent handful of really cool investigators who should start to progress soon. Weve been awfully busy and fortunately with this new transfer nothing changed to we can just keep steaming ahead!
Sorry folks, it´s actually been a very good week, its just that so much has happened that it is quite a headache to write it all down. However, know that Im fine and happy and enjoying the work.
Ciao,
Elder Ward
