First Baptism

Hola!

This week Hermana Maria Carmela Garcia Inferno was baptized in the Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días. She was my first baptism on the mission and what a great experience that was! She has a strong testimony of the Bible and is gaining a love for el Libro de Mormon and the prophets. I was worried that her friends or family might persuade her to not be baptized but she persevered and now she just has to persevere to the end.

The spirit was so strong as she and the other sister was baptized. The meeting in the House of the Lord was filled with the Holy Ghost and brought us to tears because baptism gives all of us hope, happiness, and a clean countenance. I could see it in their eyes and feel there spirit rejoice as they bore testimony of the experience. The hymns and special musical number brought everyone in attendances spirit to rejoice together of this important covenant. I’m so thankful for the covenants that I have made and strive to keep them daily to make another covenant of sealing that is of great importance.

When the sister bore her testimony for the first time she said that it was her first of many, and I thought the same thing about bringing people into the waters of baptism.

Thank you for the updates.
