Hello family! This week has been full of miracles. It started off kinda slow but towards the ends we were truly blessed.
First and foremost, we had the opportunity of seeing Millie Blevins be re-baptized after many years away from the church. She is incredible. The service went so well. She was just glowing. She's kind of a bigger lady and the baptismail jumpsuit was tight around her middle. So she decided to put her sister's temple gown over top of it. She looked like an angel. Then when she was in the water, the dress was all billowey and she was just glowing. Her brother baptized and confirmed her. The spirit was strong and I just felt so incredibley blessed to have been a part of her journey.
On Sunday we had the opportunity of finding 3 new investigators and we set a baptismal date with one. Her name is Pam Taylor and she is just incredible. Her mom is less active and both her grandparents are very active. Growing up she went to seminary and all that but was never baptized. She is ready now and we are so excited for her. April 10 is the day that she will be baptized. HOW EXCITING!!
I also just heard from my first companion, Sis Utupo. She's amazing and I love her. But she was telling me about our convert Steve Butler. Steve got baptized March 14. Back in Nov, he moved to Autrailia and got married. Utupo was able to go. But she told me that on the 14, he is going through to receive his endowments and will be sealed to his wife March 20! He and Hilary will be a forever family! How incredible is that. He will be in the house of the Lord soon making those sacred covenants with Him. While I'm sad that I won't be there, Utupo will and she will tell me all about it. Plus, it doesn't matter if I'm there or not, the only important thing is that he goes! And he will!!
Well family, know that I love you! This gospel truly does bless families! I love you all and I love being a missionary!
