Elder Pugmire did
not need the car today so we took full advantage. We met with Elder Rydalch and Elder Gardner
at the mission office and created the baptismal program handout for them. We went to the Harris’ so I could help her
reformat a cookbook that was created in Word.
We took them with us to Portones to do some shopping. They don’t have a vehicle so they are very
appreciative when they can get a ride.
They bought some bigger items because they didn’t have to carry them
home. We bought some speakers for the
laptop. Our presentation at some ward
buildings may not have a sound system we can plug in to.
It was quite stormy
today, but I saw my first rainbow! Since
we were on our way to a baptism it reminded me of the primary baptism song, “I
Like to Look for Rainbows”.
The baptism was in
the Malvin ward. There were dos jóvenes
being baptized.
We printed the
programs with their picture that we had taken and stepped in to help set up a
video presentation because their equipment didn’t work.
I gave my first
public prayer in Spanish.
I was asked to lead
the singing. I did a lot of humming with
the first song. “I Like to Look for Rainbows” isn’t quite in my vocabulary
yet. “Come Follow Me” was easier because
they sing this song frequently and it was more familiar. Mike was asked at the
last minute to give the baptismal talk. The Dad of the kids was muy feliz. He
wants baptism too, but has to wait for other things to clear up. He graciously
let his children get baptized so they wouldn’t be held up because of him. He
was very touched by Mike’s talk. We
arrived home around 9 pm and had a late small dinner.
