Hey everyone,
this week was a pretty
good week, we had some fun exchanges with the lulling elders so I got to hang
out with Elder Lesser for a day which was awesome since I hadn’t seen him quite
as much since we got transferred out of the Metairie quadship.
This week I have to
say that conference is honestly my favorite time of the year now, it is so
awesome to hear from the leaders of the church because they truly do receive
revelation for the whole church. I loved it so much when I could see how each
talk either helped me out, or how it could help one of my investigators in
their progress toward baptism, it was great.
And to add even more
awesomeness to this week we were able to participate in that rebaptism of
Nicole this weekend. it was so great! Here in La Place there is one Spanish
family who make up 99% of the Hispanics in La Place, and pretty much Louisiana
as a whole. Nicole is part of that family and so at her baptism we had almost
all of the people that speak Spanish in the entire area. It was so great to see
all of them and to see the spirit of baptism work in them. I am very hopeful
that it will give that family the kick start they need to be reactivated into
the church. And another great blessing was the fact that Nicole’s husband,
Derrick, who is not a member was crying almost the whole baptism and all the talks
leading into it as well. This may not seem like a big thing but it was, Derrick
hasn’t shown very much interest in learning about the church or joining it and
the fact that he was able to feel the spirit strong enough to make him cry was
a big break through, I am very hopeful for him as well as the rest of the family.
I love you all and
hope you had an awesome conference experience as well!
