Baptism!!! - 8/8/16
The Baptism was amazing!!!!!! All five of them were baptized and loved it! President Weed and his wife were there so that was extra amazing! They said it was their first baptism that they had attended in the Mission!! Then on Sunday they were all confirmed, and I had the privilege of confirming the oldest daughter (furthest to the left in the picture). The youngest girl is 7 so she wasn't baptized, but she is looking forward to her dad baptizing her next year. They are so firmly rooted in the Gospel! We are going to try and start the Recent Convert lessons with them this week!
We also found a new investigator yesterday! It was nice to find a new investigator because we have been having a real struggle to find any for about a month now! We also tracted into a lady who had met with missionaries 10 years ago in Raleigh. What really set her apart is that she asked us for a Book of Mormon! No one ever does that!! The only problem is that it takes almost 20 miles to get to her place, so it is hard to get there with our daily allotment of 35 miles! We will find a way to make it work!
We have been getting a lot of rain! Apparently, it isn't that big of a deal for a storm to drop 2 inches of rain! I originally thought that it was a rare thing, but it's happened at least 6 times since I have been in Currituck! Crazy!
We got attacked by Mosquitoes last night. I have 8 bites on my face. It doesn't feel good at all. It was kinda crazy, we were walking up to a house and out of nowhere came a cloud of mosquitoes. No joke, no exaggeration. I have never seen so many in one place in my life!
Other than what I have already mentioned, no much has happened. Just a lot of walking and trying to find more people to teach! It is supposed to be cooler this week so I am happy for that!
With love,
