So Elder Halpin and I will be comps again this next transfer, which means I will kill yet another companion!! The Noah's Ark activity last week was an idea that one of the sister's shared with us in district meeting, she said it ws in some EFY Counselor book.
With Lucas this week, yes there certainly was progress! He got baptized on Saturday night!! ANd then confirmed on Sunday in Sacrament Meeting. But this was the last Sunday of the month and we were really close to our goal for the month and President Genaro had authorized people to be baptized even if they had only gone to church one time if they were living all the commandments. Last week there was a girl, Leticia, who hadn't gone to church yet and didn't that Sunday either, unfortunatley. BUT this Sunday she went and she had agreed that if she liked and felt good at church she would be baptized. Soo..we went by bus and got her because only like 3 people in the ward here have cars, and that made us get to church pretty late, missing the entire first class. But she still really liked it and got baptized! Plus we had permission to have her confirmed outside of a sacrament meeting as well! So she was confirmed right after! It took us all the way until the last weekend of the transfer but we finally baptized!
We've got 2 potential families for these next weeks and so that's who we'll be running after these next weeks! Oh and like two or three months ago we beat the old mission record of baptisms with 168 but this month right now (September) we just beat it again and got 182 in the mission!
