First Baptism on the Books.....

Hello, what's up?  I don't know if I said this but we have a man named Jason on date to be baptized on the 14th, since I got here he has come to church every week and he asked me to baptize him. He kept not telling us who he wanted to baptize him and said he wanted to pray about it.  He said God told him it should be me .....he was taught for 4 years and wasn't on date when I got here so I'm basically an AP......lol anyway the spirit is always super strong in our lessons with Jason and he's definitely ready to be baptized.

....like I've mentioned my companion is district leader, and our district is actually a "sistrict", meaning it's all sisters...... and they ask for blessings every week and since my companion is district leader we have to do call ins every Sunday night and they take so long because the sisters wont stop talking and my companion is always going along with it .....so that definitely takes a good bit of time.

....one random thing that happened last week was that my companion's lip just swelled up like he got lip injections, we woke up in the morning and his top lip was super fat. It went back to normal by night time and we always got to wear masks so nobody could see but it was super weird since he says he's not allergic to anything..

....we haven't talked with Jamal and his parent's in 2 weeks they just stopped answering our texts and calls....some sad news is that the missionary called 500 had to get sent home.....he has super bad back problems, way worse than mine, so idk why he decided to come out before getting surgery, one of his vertebrae discs is like getting squished out to one side and it frequently smashes a nerve, his whole left leg would go numb when he walk and he couldn't bend down at all....also 500 said he got a scholarship for football to play at university of utah but he decided to go on a mission instead, I didn't think he'd be going home or I would have gotten more quotes. It's sad he's gone, hopefully he can come back soon, in memory of 500 I'll add a pic of him. Anyways it's super sad cause he was in my online mtc zone, not my district but I still knew him especially since we got in the field cause we'd come down and hangout with him and his companions on p-day..

.......there was a shooting in my apartment complex, a 14 year old and a 16 year old did a drive by shooting.  Shot 10 to 15 shots at someone, they both were arrested rantoul is actually super hood there are gangsters everywhere.............well, can't think of anything else adios!
