February 28, 2011

Hey everyone,
I don't have a lot of time today to write but I do have some pictures to post up. I hope you enjoy them.

We had a pretty busy week this past week that ended with an awesome baptism. For the first time I have been a missionary all three areas in the branch I'm serving in baptized. In all honesty it was one of the best baptismal services I have been to while I have been on my mission. It sure is an awesome feeling to see your area and ward/branch grow stronger and stronger.

Here is the list for the baptisms:


1-La Familia Urrea: We found Luis and Lupe off a HQ referral. They had been taught basically everything when we first contacted them and were baptized three weeks. Their service was nice with good attendance. Now, one month later, they are 100% active and participating as much as possible in the branch.



2-Teresa de Jesus Ruiz: This lady has an incredible story. We found her when we received two referrals the same day to go visit her. It took us about 4 months (since November) but she finally entered the waters of baptism. I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to help her come unto Jesus Christ and to see the miraculous change that occurred in her.



3-How Great is the Joy: The 3 companionships and the baptizees at our baptism this past Saturday. There was tons of ward support for these three wonderful souls. They will bring a lot to the table and are great additions to our ever growing branch.
