This week we had a baptism for Patricia! It was really great! She didn’t think she would be ready for it this date when we first met her. But, as we motivated her to keep reading and praying she came to know it was true and wanted to get baptized. So she had asked her parents what they thought about her getting baptized. Her mom thought it was really quick so Patricia didn’t go any farther with her about it. She’s 18, so she just wanted to do it and tell them later. Her friends at church tried to get her to talk to them beforehand and invite them but she didn’t want to. Anyways her dad came right in the middle of it and didn’t seem mad but didn’t stay to watch it. He just came because they were wondering why she was there so long with conference and the baptism. I think it’s all good but we’ll see. She still came the next day for conference and loved it. We have a couple people we are trying to get ready for next weekend too! Anyways I love you all so much and hope everything is going well there at home! I love you! Take care!

Love, Alex
