We got a really short email letter from Tyler today, but as you'll see in his letter he had his first baptism his first full week in the mission field. How awesome is that? There are some great photos below his letter. Some of the photos include travel photos of his trip fr
Ola amigos!
Hey everyone this first week in Portugal has been a blast. I have had lots of fun walking around everywhere talking with people its fantastic. So last Saturday on the 11th was a very important day. It was my first baptism. Yes i baptized someone on my first week in Portugal. His name is Bernardo and he is 9 years old. He is such a cool kid. He and his mom are really nice. We where able to teach them all the lessons and have him commit to baptism. it took a while though because Bernardo liked ice tea and that is against the word of wisdom so we had to work that out with him and he was cool about not having it anymore. It was such a great experience to baptize Bernardo. Hey for all those people waiting for the mailing addresses here they are.
Hope to hear from you all soon. Portugal is such an amazing place and i know that this is where i am supposed to be. This is where God wants me to be and has people here waiting for me to teach them. I love you guys and can feel all your prayers for me, and all the other missionaries. I love you all so much.
With Love,
Elder Rusnell
