This week was great!  We had a baptism on Saturday.  We had originally planned on the father doing the baptism, but Saturday afternoon, we were informed that John (our member-to-be) had changed his mind and now he wanted me to baptize him.  So with out a change of clothes I changed into white and baptized the feller.  It was awesome, it seems like that happens a lot where i get  wet at the last minute and i don't have a change of        clothes.  But i'm not complaining, it was a great exper-   ience  and I enjoyed it.  I've enjoyed teaching this kid    from the beginning. We also got the confirmation taken care of in sacrament, and right after sacrament, he was ordain to the office of a priest. so now he can help with  the sacrament.  I think that makes about 3 young men in the branch.  Nothing else exciting really happened this week, just work like normal, oh we did go on exchanges with the other Arusha Elders.  I was with Elder Jackson he's from Zim.  He is a funny guy and i really enjoyed  serving with him for a day.  I think we're gonna do exchanges again this week and then i'll be with Elder Frost, not sure yet, but i think it'll happen.  Haha thats funny    that Landen missed his plane, if I did that when i go       home then it might be like 2 or 3 days before i get on another one. Transfers are next week, not sure what will   happen, but it's pretty likely that i might get moved.  We shall see what happens.  Well, i should probably get     going so i love you all and i hope that all is well.  Remember to keep the Lord bound in all that you do and the  promised blessings will be yours.

Love

Elder Larsen
