A few months ago the younger brother was baptized. In December the decision of the older brother started our Christmas season. He was now ready to be baptized.
The younger brother had the proper authority to baptize his brother. This was a first since we have been here. Usually the missionaries do the
baptism. Letting new members use their priesthood helps them to grow faster.
It was a very happy time for the missionaries as they came up to the end of a year with lots of work, lots of walking and lots of high
temperatures to make their missions interesting.
This was an exception rather that a rule, but we celebrated a few days later with American food. Both of these young men love everything American. They were amazed at this
restaurant with surf board on the wall and
License plates from every state.
