This Weekend Was Amazing

Well this weekend was an amazing experience, our investigator Stanley was baptized and confirmed! It was such a spiritual experience; you could just feel the Spirit when you walked into the room. The new stake president came, cause he was having an interview with Bishop. I only had to do it once, and didn't even have a problem with his name. He was so happy. It was so great, after the baptism he said, "I no longer need the goal to be baptized, I can have my new goal of going to the temple!" Another time he said "my ambition in this life is to be able to live in the Celestial Kingdom with our Heavenly Father!" He is one of the greatest persons I have ever met on or off the mission. It was just a wonderful day as well as Sunday was amazing. I am thankful for him and his desire now to share it with his friends and family, He started asking us for restoration pamphlets to give to a friend, before he was baptized, He is just excited to share this with his friends! I hope that I didn't sound like boasting, I am just as Ammon was in Alma 26, "...I boast not of myself, but of my God..."

Thanksgiving is an odd time for missionaries, because it is prime time for teaching because of the gratitude and such as that but also very poor time for teaching and finding and etc because no one really wants these 2 random men showing up on their doorstep the week of a holiday.

Here are some pictures

Love you
