Baptisms

Well this week went very well!! We had the opportunity of having three baptisms and all of them went very well! It was sad though because the First lady was getting into the font and slipped and fell. She was fine and we still baptized her. I told her to hold onto the handrail but she didn't listen.... Haha Oh well. She is doing fine and was happy to be baptized. I was able to baptize the two older ladies and Elder Trammell the Younger girl. So that was really great to see. We were able to have three new investigators this week which was good as well. They are all really cool and there is some potential there for sure! On Thursday we had a really spirit filled lesson as we taught this GOLDEN investigator!! It was our second time seeing her and she had great questions about what we do and especially about the Book of Mormon! So yeah it was cool but what made it great was near the end the spirit was just strong as we bore testimony of the Godhead. The impression came to invite her to baptism as she has the spirit confirm to her our words. I being scared and let fear in ignored the prompting and I was kinda fighting it. Well as a few minutes went by Elder Trammell had the same feeling and he acted on it and gave her a soft commitment for baptism. GUESS WHAT! She accepted after we had to explain why baptism by authority is important and not just by anyone. We didn't set a date because she wants to pray and get a answer but it was great! We have literally taught her formally about the godhead in about the 2 hours we have met with her. The rest of the time is just questions! SO AWESOME! So yeah listen to the spirit!! Because I didn't but thankfully my comp did! Anyways that is the week! Nothing to crazy other than that! Love you all!!
