Email! -- 2 July 2012

This week was so cool! Our baptism DID happen. (We had a scare the night before, but it all worked out!) Before the baptism started we gave a tour to some of his family who are non-members, and set up a time to go over and teach them more. The Spirit was so strong! He is an amazing man and an elect son of God!

Funny story: We went to the church super early, because it was our weekly planning day. So instead of stopping in the middle of planning to go to the church to fill the font (about a mile from our apartment) we just decided to plan at the church. So we got the water turned on, and we only turned on the hot water, thinking that by the time the font is full there wont be much hot water left. Well, that plan failed! They were walking into the font and they had to turn on the cold water because the water was too hot! How many times has that happened?! Of course it was 107* F outside (another reason we decided to plan at the church -- a lot cooler than our apartment!) so that might have had something to do with it!

Earlier that day we had had an AWESOME lesson with a.... well, she isn't technically less active any more, but her testimony is still a little shaky. Anyway, we had a lesson on setting goals, and why it's important to set ourselves up to achieve those goals. For example: if we want a temple marriage we need to be hanging out with other people who want a temple marriage, ie: ysa, institute, lds chat. :) We can't just say we want a temple marriage and not change anything we are doing. It was so great and it made her think about what she really wants! I love her so much and can't wait to be friends with her forever! (Don't worry, none of you are being replaced! I still love you all just the same!) 

I had a whole list of things to tell you all, but I left the list at home so you are just going to have to wait! I love you all! Have a happy and safe 4th of July! 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA RUTH!!!!!!

Love,
