So Sarah's baptism!!
It happened!! Haha, she had a few struggles the week preceding (not
unusual) but we powered through them with prayer and trust in the Lord.
Her baptism strengthened my testimony of the power of the promises we
make with God in this life. This weekend, Sarah promised to always
remember her Savior Jesus Christ, to follow Him, to serve others, and to
keep the commandments. Heavenly Father was so proud of her and happy
with her choice. This was manifest through the powerful presence
of the Spirit. You just couldn't miss it, the Spirit was so thick in
that room. Both of the speakers at her baptism cried along with several
members of her family. I am so grateful for the opportunity I
have had to meet her and watch her grow by strengthening her
relationship with the Savior. I know He lives and I know He loves us.
Please continue to pray for Sarah as her journey has just begun!
This
week we also started handing out pass-along cards with the new video
that is coming out on the 28th. It is called "Because He Lives" and the
website is helives.mormon.org. The video will be about the Savior and His Atonement. I know the Atonement is real and it changes lives. My life and my heart have been changed by the sacred and holy Atonement of our Savior.
We
also taught Mareina this week about the Plan of Salvation! She is
working through some of the principles but has a strong testimony of the
foundation of the Plan- the Atonement! I have great faith that this
will help her to gain a testimony of the whole thing! Heavenly Father is
blessing her with great light, knowledge, and truth! Please continue to
pray for her!
I love you all so much! I know
that Heavenly Father loves each of us and desires great blessings and
happiness for us. Thank you for your faith, your prayers, your love, and
you support! I pray for each of you!
Please keep my downstairs neighbor Shari in your prayers. He husband passed away over the weekend.
