Windows of Heaven

Such a great week! So Blair got baptized on Saturday!! It was so amazing!! She asked me to baptize her and it was such a special opportunity. She is so amazing. The best part of the baptism was hear Blair bear her testimony. It was so powerful to hear her testify that she knows that this gospel is true. She is such an example. I am grateful to have been apart of her conversion. 

So our investigator Deborah also came to Blair's baptism and she loved it. After the baptism she told us "Ya'll gone have to put more water in there when I get baptized because I'm to heavy to go down that far." hahaha she is hilarious. She is an african american woman that is in her 60's and has a thick southern accent. She sounds like she is from Louisiana or something. So imagine her saying that quote. She cracks me up! She is progressing so well. We are also teaching her daughter Giovanni who really wants to get baptized as well. They are both still working towards the 25th of November for baptism. 

The Lord has truly opened up the windows of Heaven for Elder Ravsten and I. We have seen so many miracles, it is so amazing to witness. There is just so much going on here. We are excited to teach these people about the gospel of Jesus Christ and witness the Lord's hand in this amazing work. It brings to mind the scripture in D&C 123:17

"Therefore,dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then   may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed." 

I love you all and hope you have a great week!

Love,

Elder Hallmark
