Our first baptism

We have our first baptism this Saturday for Sandra Hernandez! She and her husband were married Saturday and it was way exciting to go to even though it was only in there house. It was so cool that they had no plans for getting married and we laid down a big challenge for them to get married Tuesday and five days later it was done. It feels so much better to teach them now that they are not living in sin.
Sandra is so excited to be baptized and she says she is going to go to town reading the Book of Mormon. I cannot wait to see it.
I don’t tell you about a lot of the people we teach because it takes to long to tell all the stories so I kind of like to talk about the ones that I am pretty sure will progress.
With that said, I don’t know who else to talk about. My favorite family is the Salazar family and most of the pictures that I send home that has me with a family is with them. They are all members except for the dad Jose. But the parents are living together and are not married because she has a divorce pending in mexico but doesn’t have the money to pay for it. A year and a half ago they were not active at all even though the Mom, Jessie Jimenez, was raised in the church. Now they are there every Sunday and Jose would be baptized if he could. I hope it all goes through soon but it is not likely because they have four kids to pay for and they don’t have much money. Elder Trappett says that when he goes home he is going to work to earn money for their divorce so he can pay for it and their wedding. That would be awesome. I want to be here when they get sealed. We are going to spend Christmas at their house so I am super excited. However, everytime we are there they make us eat until or stomachs are bursting. It is painful but delicious.
Tomorrow is our Christmas party. YAY! Gotta go byebye Love you, Elder Bernard
