1. from last week when we went to the crocodile zoo of only crocodiles and a leopard and some birds. and an iguana that was just hanging around...
2. some pretty nayarit wildernessEsta semana tuvimos un bautismo muy hermosos y muy espiritual! oh sorry that was in Spanish... It says this week we had a very beautiful and spiritual baptism. and it was. So great! I'll send pictures. We were able to pull everything off and it was perfect. The closing prayer was a bit interesting but heartfelt. and I loved it. Irma and Urbano are so excited to be memebrs and to take this new step. Urbano wants us to convert his own family but especially his brother Juan. But it seems like Juan doesn't really want to, but mostly because of his wife Esperanza, so there is still hope. That's going ot be our new project. Also whats the coolest is that one of our less active members, Ventura Rodriguez, is the godson of Urbano. We didn't know and when we found out Alicia the wife of Venture wanted it to be a surprise. (ventura and Alicia haven't gone to church in forever because of certain things that happened a long time ago etc... Ventura was once the branch president so they were super active before) anyways Alicia got Ventura to come and you should have seen the look on his face when he saw him and when he heard that he was getting baptized. and lo and behold Ventura and Alicia showed up to church the next day and are going to come again next Sunday! So miracles do happen. Right now he says that he's coming only to support Urbano and Irma but at least he's coming and while he's there his testimony will grow. We've been using a different technique with Ventura we don't teach him. We hand him the book of mormona and we tell him to find and explain to us a scripture so he teaches himself. It seems to work they aren't the most spiritual lessons but it has been helping him to stat thinking again about spiritual things. Its been fun and interesting.
