A Surprise Baptism, Team Lusk Took the Victory and Enjoying the Brotherhood

Hey fam
Time is getting short but I am trying my best to press on. We had a complete miracle this week. Alex, the young man we met last week, was baptized on Saturday! It was a surprise for us, too, but the time was right and he was ready. Last week, when we were planning, we put down to have a baptism although we didn't know who it would be but then when we were teaching him on Tuesday, we got the strong impression to commit him to be baptized on Saturday and he happily committed. It was such a sweet experience knowing he was led to us at this time and he was prepared on Sunday as he was an active participant in both gospel principles class and priesthood quorum. He even told us he wants to prepare to serve a mission.
The rest of the week was a little down and we had some disappointments. The other day, we were walking in the area after a few fall-throughs and were kind of bummed out so we just grabbed a couple of the local sandlot kids and split the teams and for about twenty minutes, played some soccer. To top it off, team Lusk took the 6-4 victory over team Burnard with yours truly adding two goals. We also started a companionship goal for talking to people. If we don't meet the goal, we have to sleep on the floor and have cold showers. I would say it is effective in getting us to open our mouths. My companion is also a champion eater so we have been enjoying that. Last night, we enjoyed a great night with our buddies, Elder Harmon and Elder Robins where we made a huge pile of food and hung out enjoying the brotherhood of service.
Love you all and see you soon
Elder Lusk
