Week 70 - Eric's baptism

So much has happened this week.  I went to two baptisms. 

This whole week we have been preparing for Eric Keren's Baptism.  On Thursday we found out that someone else was getting baptized the same day at the exact same time as Eric.   Apparently both of our Ward Mission Leader forgot to save the stake center, so we didn't know about this until our District Leader, Elder McCallson told us that we had a conflict.  Our Ward Mission Leaders talked and formed a combined baptism service. Eric was baptized this last Saturday by his LDS best friend, Jared Laneheart. We thought that Jared was also going to confirm him but Eric had not chosen a person to confirm him yet.  So we asked him who he would like to do that and he said I could do it.  I was able to confirm him in sacrament meeting.

So, I received a call last Wednesday from Elder Davis that Cody, an Investigator in my last area was getting baptized.  We got to attend Cody's Baptism on Thursday.  It was pretty exciting news because I didn't think that he would get baptized that soon so it was wonderful news.


We had a spiritual lesson with Nicole Keren after her husband, Eri's lesson.  We recommitted her to read the Book of Mormon.  The spirit was with us and Elder Ray asked her that if she read and found the Book of Mormon to be true then would she be baptized.  She said yes and we set a baptism date for the 5 of December.  I has been a great privilege to teach that family and I believe that they will be sealed one day. :)
