Our Baptism Before [Elder] Bednar [Comes] (week 27)

I'm writing on a keyboard that's so sticky it's like someone spilled glue on it. If there's errors in my English, it's not my fault!

As you would have already guessed, Martin was BAPTIZED!!!!! That makes baptism number 2 on my mission (I won't take any credit for this guy though, but he was technically "my investigator"). The whole thing was actually pretty crazy, because up until Friday, we were planning on the baptism happening on Sunday. Right before he was to have his interview, he mentioned to us that he wanted to be baptized on Saturday so he could get the Holy Ghost the next day. So Saturday translated to... the next day. We pulled some strings and got someone to give a talk in English and asked Elder Hays to baptize him and BAM! He went down in the water and came out a new man. After he got the Holy Ghost, he walked back to his seat with his hand on his heart and a huge, content smile on his face. It was an honor to be a part of.

Sorry I don't have much more to say this week. Here's a bunch of pictures.

Hey! Read your scriptures! And while you're at it, read D&C 50:24 cause it's my favorite scripture.

Martin's even smaller than Sister Meyer... that's sayin' something!

Berlin is gorgeous.

Elder Hays bought Sister Meyer and I fans because
we mentioned ONE TIME that they would be nice.
He took it all the way.
These are our friends from Utah from a few weeks ago! #merica
