Beautiful in White

 
The Flores Family is baptized!! It was a perfect baptism. When Nanay Eufemia came up out of the water she cried and said "Oh thank you Lord" it filled my heart. Allen cried when
she shared her testimony and she said she knew they had found the right path to get back to the kingdom of God. We had the baptism right after General Conference so a lot of members were able to attend and the spirit was strong. President Sumagpao came too and since La Carlota is a district not a stake he was able to preside which was special to me. 

General Conference was wonderful. I like what Elder Oaks told us to do- Teach Doctrine, Keep the commandments, Love one another, and GO to the Temple! I also loved the focus on having Joy and that we don't need to be perfect we just need to intentionally try really hard! I also cried every time they talked about the youth. I felt so much Heavenly Father's trust in them. When Prophet Nelson was talking I just remembered all the young prophets and how much Heaven trusted in and helped them- Mormon, Samuel, Joseph Smith, etc.. I'm so proud of the youth. I wish I was a better youth but I just hope they know their potential to do good and to build up the kingdom of God. 

Also this week April's son Jhaeden turned one and we had lunch with them and Jhaeden got to eat lots of cake it was a ball. I'll miss them so very much. 

It's my last week here in the mission field. This is still my motto- not just until I take off my tag but until the very very end. “The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; … the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done.”

See you all next week for one last email :D

Love you all
