Dear Mother and Father,
Okay, we had the most amazing baptism yesterday! Casey Cottey and Darlene Chappell were baptized at the same service! And the Spirit was so strong!
So, Casey brought his mom and younger sister, while Darlene brought her daughter's (Brandi)husband, Billy. I gave the missionary inspire/moment, and invited all who have not been baptized (especially those three people) to be baptized! Brandi reached over and patted Billy on the shoulder. Bill got teary eyed during the baptism, and said that he wants to see Joseph Smith: Prophet of the Restoration!
After the baptism, I talked to Casey's mom. She said that she wishes Casey would have waited. I was a little scared until she said that he should have waited to do it...as a family! Woot! What we were thinking we would do is teach them (the mother and the daughter) and have Casey baptize them. Holy Cow! That's be amazing!
We put another UBC on date for Saturday. Woot! Matt Love is the son of a less-active, seven-year convert. The mom, Sister Fink, is coming to church and enjoying it. The ward, sadly, is not being supportive of this...:( (sad face). In fact, all but one of the Gem Heights UBC's are frowned upon. But Brother Jones says: "Do it anyway and don't take it personally!" Mwa, ha, ha.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!
Totally freakin' happy day to be a mommy! Even better...I get to call you.
Alright. I'll tell you how the baptisms turn out.
Loves and stuff!
