Happiness in Missionary Work!




Missionary WORK!!





If these pictures are any indication, I'd say he's put a few miles of walking on those shoes!

I had to show the desk - neat, orderly, organized - this mom is loving that!

First Baptism!!



My first baptism was a nine-year-old girl named Sherrizah Albis. Probably the best way I could have celebrated Valentine's Day! We took pictures, sang, prayed, heard talks from two speakers on Baptism and the Holy Ghost, and then did the baptism. I wasn't nervous until I stood up to leave, but when we both were in the font, I remembered what to say and was calm and said it right and did it right (hair and all!), so it was very good. The best part was her face as she came out - a huge smile, which doesn't happen a lot because she's really shy. She smiled huge after she came out and as she went to change. I felt really good - the spirit was so stroong afterward. The water was cold, of course, yet I felt nice and warm the whole rest of time!
