Well, our investigators got baptized! I´m super happy for them. I have no doubt of their faithfulness. She gave a beautiful testimony and how she had been searching and praying to find the true church for most of her life. And when we arrived in her door, she just knew at that moment that it was right. And just to think, if we had been distracted, or not listening to the Spirit in the moment in which it whipsered to us to knock their door, she may not have recieved this anwer to her prayer. I´ve just recently been reading in Isaiah, chapter 58, all of which I adore, and verses 10-12 have been something in my mind, of late. More than anything, I love how it says in 12, "thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations". I think we have more of an affect than we know, many times. Like when Heber C. Kimball was called to England, it was said in his setting-apart blessing that he would "prove a source of salvation to thousands". I just pray the same could be said for me. that´s why I´ve been putting a new focus on following the Spirit, so it may "guide (me) continually", and that I might find these many people who have been praying to hear the words which we have to share.
No, they don´t really celebrate Halloween here. They call it day of the witches here, and anyone who is even slightly religious is convinced it is a devil-worshiping holiday. So.... no.
I love you all sooooo much, and I can´t wait to meet baby Paxton on Christmas!
Much love,
