From Elder Henderson's Blog:
The baptism went as followed. Our chapel is in a small building and no font, so we rented a pool in a hotel and set it up in there. We had P play his guitar because there was no piano. His friend that invited him to church from Oulu, a city about 2 hours away, spoke and it was powerful. The Branch President baptized him, he said the old translation of the baptism prayer, so I had to ask him to do it again. That is what is interesting about translations of writings, they change. But the second time was wonderful and P was baptized. We then had my Ipod playing in the background while they changed. Then we had a small testimony meeting, it was wonderful. P was so excited and so ready. He had the hotel bring down orange juice money with umbrellas on top of the drink. It was great. He also bore testimony in church and Elder Christensen confirmed him. P told me to tell you all thank you and the sun is shining here in Kajaani... a beautiful day and the snow is whiter than white.
