11 year old Baptized and Thanksgiving with Costco Turkey -- November 21, 2007

hey
all is good here in danshui
we had a great baptism last week with a ke guan yu- a little 11 year old boy- . we are surprised he did so well cause he can go really crazy sometimes and the water was so so cold--- because the weather as been cold. oh ya the best part is our baptismal font--not really a font at all- more like one of those cool little pools you have in your backyard that we filled with hoses-- i have pics but no way to really send them-- a nasty old bluish color--really quite attractive.

i got to go on exchanges with our zoneleaders the other day-- it was way fun-- elder marble(my trainer) came to danshui and i went to shilin -i was with a elder zhao who is a 27 year old native with really bad english so we just talked in mandrine the whole time-- it was great we found 2 golden guys one committed to baptisim on the street and the other was coming to church the next day-- the first was acctually from the main office or the "bu" the guy called in and said he wanted to hear about the church- we had a great lesson with him and he really felt the spirit strong.

the weather is slowly getting colder-- but still not to bad-- we are having a huge thanksgiving feast at our church today for the holiday. it going to be so good- some elders in the other area have a costco so we have a big turkey- stuffing- crainberry goodness rolls pumpkin pie and buscits and a bunch of other stuff--- im so excited.

Well at the baptisim for ke guan yu our other investigator-- a brother yang came up to us and asked us when he was going to get baptised--- music to our ears-- we set a date with him in december-- thats the only for sure one we have right now-- we might be getting our hong jia long back but we dont know--he is the one we started teaching in the hospital.

well thank you all for everything i love you-- 龍 長 老 elder langford
