I'm an Apostatized missionary

hey all well we had another baptism, it was great, but it was the first of this kind that i have seen! so his name is Chen (brother) and he got baptized on the 15th, his birthday we had our recent convert brother Zeng help baptize him... preach my gospel likes the new members baptizing, so trying to make everything perfect i asked zeng to baptize him.... it was a great service, i spoke on baptism at it, and the spirit was very strong, so it was a smooth baptism.... or so you would think..... well bishop came up to me after everyone left and said in english,, i have to tell you a secret, so we went for a walk,,,,,, and then he started speaking in chinese.... and told me BROTHER ZENG didn't get the priesthood yet.... OOOOOPS!!!!! then he looked at me and had this confused look like what do we do and i was like " are you serious, we all nominated him last week for priesthood ( i don't know whats that called in english) and my mm leader told me you guys give the members priesthood different then you do in america, he said you do it in your bishops office."

so i was lead to believe he had the priesthood plus the bishop attended the baptism.... then his wife came up and was like whats wrong.... i looked at her and smiled... the baptism is wrong hahahah then she said what and bishop told her he didn't have the priesthood, and then she hit him and said you knew this the whole time, and he said i didn't think of it till after it had happened.... then i said no problem no problem no one needs to know... will fill the font right now again and baptize him again..... so we got the water going... but before that i grabbed our investigator and said i need to talk you..... so we walked into a room, i shut the door and said we have a problem.... the baptism we just did doesn't count, zeng doesn't have the priesthood, what do you have planned today, we need to baptize you again.... hahaaahah this is a hilarious experience, so many details get left out while typing.... well to make it quick the investigator was good bout the situation, and it was a good experience,,, really funny he got the opportunity to feel what its like to get baptized the apostatized way then the real way... i told him now no one would forget him!!! well

the story is better in person, if the ward wants me to give a talk on authority when i get back, i think i would do a very good job!! :)
