Baptism

Hey everyone :) Sorry it's been so long since I last wrote, I've had quite the two weeks! My stomach decided that it doesn't really agree with México. But after a few doctor appointments, I've been feeling better every day. I also got a blessing, and feel as though all will be well. The mission president and his wife literally are treating me like their own daughter, so I've been pretty well looked after :P

We've had a pretty good two weeks down here, especially as we finished preparing J. to be baptized :D His wife, X. is an ex-missionary, and has been overwhelmed with joy as she's watched her new husband come to know for himself that this is the only church with the fullness of the gospel on the earth, with the authority from God to baptize so that we can return to live with Him again. His service was beautiful, as the whole family took part. Even his 6 year old niece offered the opening prayer :) It was amazing to see the joy that he could feel entering into this covenant with his Heavenly Father. I'm so grateful that I'm able to be a missionary and be a part of this amazing work!

We also had transfers today, but I'm to stay  with Hermana R. :) I'm really grateful for that, because after these last few weeks, I wouldn't feel very confident handing this area off to other missionaries. We've got our work cut out for us!
