el bautismo

 Hey yall! 


This week was pretty slow but ended with a bang! 

We had good weather for half the week so we did some service projects and did some of our studies outside. 

LOTS of food this week. We had some VERY generous members bless us with a TON of food. And no we did not ask for it, they just handed it to us 😭 

Also celebrated my month mark a little late with some lovely pizzookies courtesy of the Troy fam <3

One of our friends, Ashley is on date to be baptized. She is getting so excited! She planned out the next three weeks to us day by day to show us she was ready to go. She's so funny that way. She recently moved into the Council Bluffs area (which was my last) and I know she'll fit in so well in that ward. We'll have to pass her off to those missionaries before she gets baptized though :/ 

On Sunday our friend Dave was baptized! It was lots of fun setting everything up. Nothing brings greater joy than helping someone make that promise with God. The spirit was so strong in that room- probably the strongest I've ever felt. The temple president confirmed him as a member and it was powerful. 

Mosiah 18:8-11 describes Dave's desire perfectly. Verses 8-10 is Alma describing who a person needs to become to be baptized. Verse 11 is the response of the people and says "And now when the people had heard these words, they clapped their hands for joy, and exclaimed: This is the desire of our hearts."
