Baptism

 Welcome back to my weekly email,

This week wasn't the most eventful so this will be short.

The main event of this week was the baptism of Kelaia. It was Friday the 26th. A ton of members showed up, enough that a few, including us, had to stand and watch from the hallway. Elder Vega got to do the baptism. Ward members had mentioned that for past bauptims the water had been super cold, so we made sure to fill it up with hot water earlier that day. However when the baptism came it was cold. Lucky Vega! 

Throughout this week we also visited, or at least tried to visit, a lot of inactive members. Constitución has a ton so we are going around and inviting them back to church. Covid hit pretty hard here so most have had a nice two year hiatus from church.

President also announced that we can take public transport now, all except for the metro. So getting around now should be a lot easier and cheaper! This p-day we took a Pesero, the micro busses here in Mexico City, they are crazy. The drivers are super aggressive weaving in between cars, passing on the left or right it doesn't matter. I look forward to taking more in the future. 

Almost forgot this story, but in church this week the stake announced a service activity this saturday for light the world. My favorite part was that they told everyone to bring their machetes. First time I have heard that form over the pulpit.
