Aurimas got baptised! It was awesome.

President Gabalas performed the ordinance and our district president was even able to be there as well. Aurimas's road to baptisim has been so difficult and it came right down to the wire. We had a meeting with his mom to make sure everything was alright becasue Aurimas showed up to church with a hurt hand. We needed to get his mom to sign his baptisimal form and at the last minute she thought about not letting him be baptised. I said an earnest prayer and hoped her heart would be softened. It was, and she said she didn't understand why he was doing it but if thats what he wants then he can be baptised. I was very excited to hear that. This is a change he has been wanting to make for a long time. He used to run with a bad crowd and used to do alot of dumb things. He hasn't smoked or drank for 2 months now. He has a solid testimony. He has been talking alot about serving a mission and that has him and everybody else here excited. He still has 3 years until he turns 19 but that will give him some good time to prepare.



Other than that me and Elder Anderson are doing fine. It has been very quiet since we kind of run out of things to talk about after being together for so long.

This week at church we had 6 investigators come! 3 of them were a part of a family that comes to english class. We have been working earnestly with them for a couple months now and they finnaly invited us over for dinner. They are the sweetest little family ever. Pray for them. The mom and dad's name are Inga and Arnoldas. They would change this branch in SO many ways.
In other news you are all awesome. Sounds to me as though you all have everything under control. I am sorry i have been bad about birthdays and stuff but I just dont think about all that very often. So if i have missed a birthday or two...HAPPY BIRTHDAY/WEDDING/anything else you want to be HAPPY!
Thanks you for all your love and support. I gotta go, love you!
