Elder Castañeda and Elder Hernandez A. work in Los Tuxtlas, Jardín Branch. They taught this little family of four, three being baptismal age. The boy decided at the last minute that he did not want to be baptized. He just got cold feet for some reason. But, he came to the baptismal service of his mom and sister. Elder Hernandez baptized the mom. Elder Castañeda entered the font with the daughter. As he was getting ready to perform the ordinance, he looked to the front row where the boy had been sitting but he wasn't there. After the girl was baptized, he found the boy hurriedly changing into whites. He looked up and asked, "Is it too late?" He was also baptized. The missionaries reported that after the service there was a very emotional and tearful family hug. Sidenote: Elder Castañeda's father will be the new president of the Villahermosa Mission.
