Griseyda's Baptism

This week was Griseyda's Baptism!! The Lord truly softened her heart. It was such a testimony builder to watch her act so firmly to the prompting she had. She used to drink coffee every day at least 7 times and quit drinking coffee in one day. Her baptism was so beautiful. She said that the water was bitter cold but she went under water it felt warm. After she bore her testimony and I really wish you all could have been there to feel how strong the spirit was. She said that she doesn’t have a lot of knowledge about the church but that will come over time. What she does know is that this is what the Lord wanted her to do and from this day on she will be a different person because she is now a member of the only true church on the earth. After she finished her testimony everyone was dead silent. I know the Lord lives and he is preparing his children.

This week we had an experience with one of our investigators, well we gave him to the elders to teach because he kept trying to flirt with us. So the elders had been trying to call him for like 2 weeks (his baptism was supposed to be this next weekend) and his phone was broken or something so anyway we kept joking whenever we saw a big guy without teeth hey looks there’s Rafael. Anyway we were walking and this time it was actually him. The elders weren’t answering so we just set up an appointment for the next day. But the elders had another appointment that same hour so we ended up teaching him with the Bishop. The spirit was very strong during that lesson. At the end he said that he needs to be baptized asap. So we called the zone leaders and we had a member go get them from their area and Rafael had his interview. So the next morning Rafael was baptized. I’m out of time sorry but I love you all so much I’m happy happy happy happy!!!!!!
