Our friend Daniel got baptized!! It was an amazing experience! We did have to work around a couple obstacles with social distancing and only 10 people max at the baptism, but there was some tender mercies that happened that made everything work out right at the last minute. His brother came along to support him and the next day atchurch everyone was asking him "when is your baptism" or just directly telling him they wanted to be there when he was baptized! They are both really cool guys and we are going to keep meeting with them regularly!
Our mission also produces monthly devotionals over Facebook and their most recent one premiered yesterday at 7. It was easily my favorite so far. We were encouraged to watch it with one of the friends we are teaching and for awhile it seemed like all the ones we invited weren't going to show, but at the last minute our friend Angel showed up. He is about to graduate high school but he has been on a chapel tour with us, attended Daniel's baptism, and now also watched a devotional with us. So we are meeting with him and his family! He said they are all interested in being baptized!
Of course, I also need to address the England situation. Basically any day now I could recieve word that my visa in approved and within days be shipped out. At this point, Elder Murphy and I have really given Deltona a jumpstart so it would be hard to go, I wouldn't mind another couple weeks here but whatever is meant meant happen will happen!
Best regards!!
Elder Killian
