Charles was baptized this last Saturday and confirmed on Sunday. The interesting thing was we the missionaries were the only ones setting things up. The Bishop and councilors were out of town same with our ward mission leader. I ended up playing the piano, Sister D conducted and gave a talk on the Holy Ghost and the High Priest leader was the one presiding and conducting. The Brother who baptized Charles also welcomed in the ward. (Just goes to show, spring break is not a good time to hold a baptism, but the Lord will make it work anyway.)
I made him a cake that said, Charles #1, then I did a picture of the Engels emblem from the NFL because we did the Plan of Salvation lesson as if it were a football game and told him that he would have to be baptized before he could truly be on the team so he said that his number would be 1. :D It was fun! I'm so excited to see how much more he grows.
We got transfer calls, I'm staying in GA and Sister D is being transferred, it will be interesting to have a new companion. I'm excited!
I love you! SOOO Much! I'm so happy know that I have so many people thinking of me and I want you all to know I'm praying for you! Bless you!!

2) This is a free speech table we did on campus, it was so good to see how the Elders worked and I think I have learned a lot. There were many people who would talk with us. (We couldn't leave the square piece of grass so they had to come to us.)
