Baptisms fell through...again...Possible Changes

So this week was not to fun, the baptisms that we had planned of, Julio and Jesus, did not happen thanks to work with Julio and bad trip planing with the mom of Jesus. but this Saturday they are both going to be baptized. sad part is tonight are changes. will i stay or will i go???  I would like to stay one more week, but i do not think that i will. this week was also very tiring. on Tuesday and Wednesday i was not even in my area i was on splits with other missionaries. i do not know why but after interchanges i am always more tired that normal and two in a row i was just exhausted. but it was a good learning experience. they are always fun because you can get to know other missionaries better and get to learn how others work so you can work more efficiently. but other than that not too much happened here this week. 

In my studies i have read more about rescuing the "lost souls" the people who have become members of the church but have fallen away, because this is really hurting the progression of the church that the number of members is rising but the assistance in church is not. we all need to take the initiative and start reactivating the inactive. there may be many people that have not wanted the gospel in the past and that is why they fell away, but there was once a reason that they joined and we just need to help them find that testimony again.
Rescuing is just as important as Baptizing.
Elder McCammon

This is Steven, Jesse's baptism from a couple of weeks ago.
