We had another baptism in the Nalaikh branch on Friday.  After her baptism, this young lady bore a beautiful testimony.  Here a baptism service goes like this: Welcome, opening song and prayer, talk on baptism, talk on Holy Ghost, candidate for baptism and person baptizing them are introduced and then invited to go to font, everyone else follows, person is baptized, while they are getting dressed everyone else returns to chapel to sing hymns til they return, the baptized person bears their testimony, and then we have closing song and prayer.  It is usually very simple but spiritual.
Other than that our week has been pretty light.  Altan is still out of English lessons with her broken hand but she did stop in on Wednesday to say hi.  She is hoping to return for lessons on Monday even though it is her right hand that is broken so she cannot write.  So it will probably practicing her speaking English for a while.
