What A Great Week

hey everyone! whad up? well its been a great week. just got off the phone with the fam so of course im pretty happy/ im so thankful to have a great family. but anyways thats not even the highlight of my week. we had roberts baptism on sunday and it was so nice. he was so excited. all up until he put the sweet lookin jumpsuit on. haha. when i gave him the suit he was like "this is really what i have to wear?" haha. it was funny cuz hes pretty shy and didnt want anyone to see him. it has been great to see the change in his life. it feels great to see someone who we taught who god really is and that we can speak with him through prayer offer his first simple but great pray to the prayers that he says now. i got to perform the baptism wich felt so great and im thankful that god has given me the power to perform baptisms. i was super nervouse though having it be the first time for me and not wanting to mess up but as we entered the water together everything left and i dont really remember anything just that the spirit was very strong. oh and the font was full this time wich made it nice. haha. but that was a great experience. and we also had 10 others at sacrament too!!another great thing is that i got to see my friends sheela paul and there daughter mini. they took us to dinner in banglalore and i ate way too much like always. but it felt so great to see sheela again. almost like my family was here taking care of me. they are a great family and im happy that they are listening to the missionaries and i pray that they will continue to do so. she was laughing cuz i sound like an indian and i was laughing cuz she sounds american. so as you can see i had a pretty great week i even had pizza, a burger at zone conf, and i made a stop at kfc on the way out of bangalore back to kgf.haha anyways it was a great week and im so happy being here in india and especially with the purpose that im here to share this only true gospel with them. but thanks for all your support and i hope you have a great week. love elder barr
