Yesterday I had the privilege to go to a man named Terry's baptism. Terry has been coming to church for a while now because the two sister missionary's in our ward have been teaching him. My dad was going to baptize Terry but right now my dad is in Dubai for business and one of the sister missionary's are getting changed to Kent. Terry wanted them both there at his baptism so he rescheduled it to yesterday. And because of that my dad did not get to but he will give the holy ghost to him on sunday. It was a nice little baptism. Terry brought his daughter and you could tell that she was a little nervous but when her dad got baptized she started to cry... I don't know if she was angry or happy but she was definitely crying. While Terry was getting changed after he got baptized they opened it up to testimonies and I went up there and just said a short testimony and I made the sister missionary that was leaving, cry. And I can't believe I got up there to bare my testimony again when I had done it in sacrament meeting a last Sunday. I just felt so prompted to go up and share my testimony again. So, it was a great experience for me to go and watch that baptism.

My marvelous Zach,
Way to go. I love that you understood the hugeness of the baptism and that you were able to bear your testimony about it.
I also love that you get to experience what missionary work is. You have been blessed to see and hear wonderful missionary sisters teach lovingly and with all their hearts. I'm so glad you've had that experience so you can look forward to working that hard on your own mission.
Much love, Bamma
