December 20th 2010

There is a little gap between his last e-mail and this one, but this is all I have. At this point, Liz and Jake were married. It was a beautiful ceremony and a wonderful night. Love you both! I bet it would be cool to be baptized in the beach and the dolphins would be really awesome to see. Just another witness of God's wonderful plan and design.



OK entonces, para empezar, ustedes van a markar a la casa del Presidente de Rama a las 7 de la tarde. Su numero de casa es 001-616-166-8940. From what I understand that should be enough. The call will be between 30-45 minutes and my companion's family will be calling him at 8 so will also be very excited.
And Liz and Jake Felicidades!!!!!!!!! ya voy a tener otro cuñado.

My companion and I had a baptism this week. Her name is Flor Karina Reyes Rodriguez. She has been a golden investigator from the beginning. We talked to her the first time whill getting off a bus. I started talking to her about prophets and that peaked her interest. She gave us her address and for the next few days we tried knocking on the door but no repsonse. She later told us the she saw us pass by once and tried whistling to us and then following after us but she saw us speaking to another person and decided not to approach. After a few more days we felt the urge to try looking for her one more time and this time she came to the door and we taught her the Restoration and invited her to be baptized. She accepted. In following visits she read the Book of Mormon and described to us in detailed memory what happened, and actually started reading all the scripture references she could. She was convinced the Book of Mormon was true and already had her conversion. We taught her with members and she accepted everything and liked the church. Her baptism was was amazing as the members went and after her baptism we ate cake on the beach, sacamos almejas and some members tried fishing and playing footbal. At the moment of her baptism I remember seeing dolphins swimming in the background which added to the special event. It was also the day of the wedding. She was confirmed on Sunday and is going strong and knows the church is true. I will send pics.
Got to go,
Love Elder Baria
Talk to you all soon
