It was a great day, a fantastic day! So he was found by tracting by Elder Tukukino and Elder Choi at the time, and he let us in from the very first time and as we asked him a few questions he said that he actually had a desire to be baptized. Funny story though, is that his mother walked in during the lesson, and we talked to her for a bit but then she had to leave. One thing that was also brought up was how his father unfortunately had cancer and didn't have long left. So for a long period, we didn't teach him, but visited him here and there to support him and offer any assistance or help, especially with the situation with his father. Eventually, we started teaching him, Elder Wilson and Elder Choi, and he was so receptive. Within only 3 weeks of teaching him he was baptized, he was ready for the gospel and he really wanted to be baptized. On his special day, he had a great big smile after the baptism, even though he was nervous beforehand, and he said he couldn't describe in words how he felt. It was an awesome experience, and his mother and sister came also, and they looked very happy for him. Hopefully we can see him progress and hopefully serve a mission of his own!
