L.A. has been treating me well over the past week. We had the baptism of Robert Abaliwano Bamulangeyo yesterday and I he asked me to baptize him. It was a mouthful for me to pronounce all the syllables of his name, but we figured it and everything went smoothly. He's a stud! He bore his testimony at church at the single's ward, which was the morning before he was even baptized or confirmed. I'll be sending some pictures home today and one of them will be of his baptism.
We had our "Beach P-Day" today, which is our one and only time throughout the year where each zone is allowed to go to the beach and have a good time. We couldn't touch the water at all, but it was to be so close to the ocean and it was peaceful too. The top of my head is completely fried and it hurts even while I'm just sitting here in the library. It's really red!
We played water balloon volleyball, regular volleyball, beach football, burried a couple missionaries with sand, took some pictures with Pres. and Sis. Blackburn, and had lunch to cap it all off. It was a fun time and I'll be sure to include a couple pictures in the envelope I'll be sending home later today.
E. Gentry and I are working strong together and I've learned a lot from him over the four weeks that we've been companions. He is very focused and he loves missionary work. It was an adjustment for me to be companions with him this transfer after being with E. Gregory last transfer, mainly because their work styles and personalities were different. It's been a good adjustment for me over the four weeks I've been with E. Gentry and we've seen success in Gardena.
Tell everyone at home that I say hello and have a great week! Elder Brycen Gold
