So many wonderful things are happening!
Elder Payne and I have a fun way of
contacting people by taking them cookies and it has been awesome! We have been
able to soften some hearts and meet some great people! Occasionally we even
have a "cookie swap" where they offer us cookies in return :)
Janice's baptism on Saturday was
amazing! The Spirit was so strong. Elder Payne did the baptism and I confirmed
her in church yesterday. Elder Allen (Area Authority), President Curtis
(mission president), and President Atkins (Stake President) were all at the
10th ward yesterday! Just a little nervous doing the confirmation :) I am
actually pretty close with them and they are great men!
The whole ward is excited about Janice
and it has really helped the members do missionary work! We are excited to help
her progress even more in the gospel now :) I realize how baptism truly is just
a gate, that allows us so many more opportunities on our path to return to our
Father in Heaven. SO many promised blessings that Heavenly Father has in store
for all of us. Will we receive them by living our life by His will and His way?
On Saturday there were two instances
where someone said "You came right at the perfect time" and it just
reassured us that we must be doing something right, and that the Lord really is
leading us even if we don't always know it!
I love y'all and have a Happy Easter!
Elder Bean
