Baptism Coming Up. Yee Haw!
Hello everyone! How are we doing? I´m doing just dandy and I´m so excited for the baptism this weekend. We asked Vanessa who she would like to baptize her and she chose me so I´m pretty nervous. I hope I don´t have to triple dip her or anything haha. I´m happy I get to finally step in the water though. Its going to be an amazing experience. Yesterday I felt the spirit so strong when we were teaching Vanessa and her boyfriend bore his testimony and told us how thankful he was for the missionaries that brought the gospel into his life. Vanessa put her arm around him and gave him a hankerchief to wipe away his tears haha. Usually its the other way around. It was a really cool experience though. The secretary in the ward pulled a fast one on me again and asked me to speak in sacrament right before it started. Of course the subject was missionary work. I whipped something up in Sunday school and it actually went pretty well. I talked about how we can apply the Book of Mormon to our missionary work and used chapter 18 of Alma to do it. I just talked about the things he did as a missionary step by step and applied it to us today. I don´t know how I came up with it because I was already really stressed. We didn´t have the greatest week teaching wise. We mostly taught in the street and knocked doors. I actually love knocking doors so I was happy. This week Elder Kopischke from the quorum of the 70 is doing a tour of the misson so we have a conference with him on Wednesday. I´m really excited to learn from a General Authority in person. I think thats about all the news I have for the week. I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving (We don´t celebrate here) and get full and fat. We have an eating appointment that day and we always get full so no worries mom. I love you all and thank you so much for the support. Oh! And congratulations on your mission call to Japan Blake. You are going to be an amazing missionary. Talk to you next week.
