What's
up guys??
This
week was crazy but amazing!!! To start the week off, I went on exchanges with
Elder Tharp (who served in the Glen Burnie ward with me when I was there) and
we had a ton of fun! (That was our 3rd time on exchanges together haha). Then
we had zone conference and because our car was so clean we won the cleanest car
award and got some free Chic-Fil-A gift cards, super stoked about that haha!
Then from there I went on exchanges with Elder Head into his area (down in
Dundalk and Essex). We had a good exchange! Even though it was a short one we
managed to contact a guy named Isaiah and picked him up as an investigator the
next day, pretty cool!
Finally,
after many crazy situations and madness that I am not authorized to talk about,
the Jeghedes got baptized on Sunday!!! All 5 of them!!! It was amazing!!! We had
been working pretty closely with our mission president through some things and
he told us that he thinks it would be alright for us to get in the water and
baptize a few of them which is crazy because he never lets missionaries
baptize people!!! And we didn't even ask him either!! So I got to baptize
Favour, the youngest daughter. The baptism went really smooth and there was a
lot of support from the ward and even the stake! After the baptism Favour came
up to me and gave me the biggest hug that a 9 year old can give and she
wouldn't let go, it was adorable!! It is always amazing to see the joy that the
gospel brings into the lives of those that choose to live it, and the Jeghedes
are a prime example of that!
Other
than that we found 3 new investigators this week which was good! One of them,
Charles, was actually drafted into the MLB a few years ago but gave it up so he
could be with his family. Super cool! A lot of good stuff is happening out
here!!
Have
a good week!!
