Dad has been visiting with Alfonzo and his family for months. He is one of the guards at the CCM. They came to dinner once and we have been to their home. The missionaries have taught them. Finally after lots of struggles, Alfonzo and his daughter-in-law, Amanda, were baptized. Dad encouraged them to have a friend in the ward do the baptism, but they asked him. So it was his honor to do so. Good people with some difficult circumstances, but it is easy to tell that they will prosper with the gospel in their lives. Amanda's husband, Alfredo and their son, Charly, and Alfonzo's wife are still 'en camino'. Very sweet experience.

Very sweet! What an awesome birthday present! We love you Dad!
What a wonderful experience to have walked Alfonzo along this path! Such great missionaries. I'm glad that he and his niece made it before you left. Maybe his wife will follow soon.
