uneventful. Thing in CT are pretty much the same as they have always been. It is finally starting to warm up and I am reminded of the knock-you-over humidity of New England Summer. When we came out of church yesterday, it was 75 degrees and the humidity made it hard to breathe at first. Not sure if I'm quite ready for that but I think it definitely beats the cold.
The work rolls forth. We (might) have a baptism this Saturday if everything pans out. Please pray it will. If not, we will just move it back a week or so.
I think that is all. For more information, you can write to the address on this page. I love you all. Peace. and. Blessin's.

The Sanchez's Baptism
On Saturday, we had a baptism!
Meet the Sanchez family. Mom (Michelle), Brian (18), Stephanie (13), and Jennifer (11). We met this family because Jennifer found a pass-along card on the ground and decided to call the number. We went over at the end of March and started teaching them. They were instantly receptive. They had LOTS of questions but were able to find answers in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
It has been such a neat experience to teach them and help prepare them for baptism while watching them grow in the Gospel. It was an absolutely incredible experience for me to baptize Brian and Stephanie.
I love this family so much and I know that they are going to make GREAT members of the Church!

A Balmy Week in New England
Did you all enjoy conference? I sure did. It was an uplifting and inspiring experience and this time around, it was also a lot of fun. We watched at the Stake Center and there were about 10 or 12 other missionaries there. Each of the different sessions was also attended by 5 to 10 members. It was so great to hear the council given. I especially enjoyed Elder Holland's talk in which he spoke about the inspiration of the topics spoken of at Conference and where he described those speaking and "mortal messengers delivering angelic messages". That is truly how I felt about this Conference; like I was receiving angelic messages from (extraordinary) mortal messengers. Last Monday we had a cool once-in-a-lifetime experience. We got to tour ESPN. It was so cool! We got to see a few of their recording studios and behind-the-scenes type stuff. My camera wasn't working but Elder Souza got some good pictures I'll upload later. The last piece of news I have is that I'm not getting transferred. Everyone say, "YAY!" 6 more weeks in Hartford! That's all for now folks! Peace and blessin's... Y'all.
