ok the baptism. well it was rough. elder waldron left all of a sudden on thursday and it was right befor the baptism. at night we showe up and gonsalo asked me look my wife is drunk again really he was really hopeless and sad but i helped him understand and he asked me look i am ready to be bptised am i aloud to do it without my wife becaus i really just want to be aptised. i said well absolutely!!! excited for him yes ssad for maria but pumped for him because he is excited. well he had his interview on friday and we got there early without the district leader and well maria didnt drink because she is sick and she is yelling at some neighbor when we showed up i walked in and told the sister to sit down and well she listened which was great haa she started to say lots of bad words and i said listensister i dont want to hear those words leave your mouth and she said i am sorry guerito which means whitey but i just get mad when people treat my kids bad and even worse she was still drunk. i sat down and started to testify of jesus and that he loves everyone and that he would never say bad things like that and she apologized then said listen i am not going to be baptised i gave you the chance to baptise me and well you didnt take it and well ow i am just going to drink and its your fault well that really annoyed and i said listen sister i am going to tell you straight up the only person you have to blame is yourself its your own fault that god tells me i cant baptise you because you are drinking and well i told her off i felt really bad after because she got up all mad and what not and said well i am not going to talk to you good night and she went to bed and well i left annoyed outside. then i felt really guilty i felt how dare me to talk to a daughter of god lik that my own sister i am out here helping everyone and when someone annoys me i tell them off well i had to humble myself everyon was outside and well i grabbed a chair and i went back in and sat next to her bed and said maria i want to talk to you but she ignored me and acted like she was sleeping. i said a prayer and asked for forgivness and that heavenly father can guide me in what i am going to say. i said maria i want to say sorry for the way i talked to you because i shouldnt have done that its just that i get so sad when i see you drink nad that your kids and really sad because they want there mom and i know that you will be happy when you get baptised. well she woke up and told me well we will see what happenes but i drink. this week we are going to help her a ton my new comp and i have aplan in what we cn do to help her out so that she can be baptised.she also told gonsalo that if he gets baptised she is going to leave the house. he started to doubt and well he won he decided to be baptised. she left but came back drunk. in his baptism he was reall happy really content and well he was baptised and he came out. after he got changed. well in the lessons i always left with a hug and well it was always awkward he didnt want to give me a hug but he did anyways but when he left out of the bathroom he walked up to me and said how about a hug and i gave him one and he started to cry. he said thank yu hermano elder houston for everything i am so happy even though my wife isnt here i am so happy and you always came to the house to help me out thank you so much i hope that you keep coming. i almost cried hermano juan cried and yenni. it was really great.i am very thankfull for what he said and now we are going to get his wife to be baptised i know it
