Mexican Night, and BAPTISM!!!!

Welll what a week we have had here in Chilpancingo Guerrero.
So this week was pretty rough. We worked real hard all week and wednesday we went and talked to one of our investigators Carlos, and told him that we think that he´s ready for baptism. Because he is. And said that he should get baptised this week, and he said OK! haha it was really a miracle. he´s progressed super well over hte last month. To tell the truth, my first lesson I was thinking that he wasn´t going anywhere because he didn´t seem like someone that would progress. Then he read, prayed, and came to church, then got an answer that it´s true and got baptized!!!! yeah!!!! It was such a great day. I was super happy. I haven´t been so long without baptising since the beginning of my mission. But it was really a blessing these last 4 weeks. And now we have a cool family of 5 that we´re working with. They came to church for the second time yesterday and we´re going with them everynigth this week to seee if they want to be baptised this week. haha. Well the works goings well right now.
We also had a Mexican night this week, because the 15 of September is mexico´s independence day. We had to be in early becuase people get crazy and shoot lots of guns in the air. People die sometimes. haha, But nothing happened. The Noche Mexicana was pretty cool in the church though. They had dances, and songs, and Tamales, Horchata, agua de Jamaica, and much much more! haha but sadly we had to leave early so we didn´t see it all.
Oh and last week I weighed myself and I oficially weight 200 pounds! that means that i´ve lost 47 pounds in the last 14 months.... wow. And speaking of that in 2 days I complete 14 months! wow! ONLY 10 LEFT! When they say time flies by. it really does. Thats not a lie. haha But i´m loving every moment of it here with Elder Munden. And now we´re going to go eat Pizza!! yeah!!! p.s. Good pizza in mexico is expensive. Crappy pizza is also expensive. Good thing for rich members! haha eyah!!!! love you all tons!!!
Love
Elder Summers
