Caitlyn's Baptism!!!‏ - May 18, 2015

 
Dear Family and Friends!

I don't have too much time to write today, but I will be sure to get some pictures sent off from what we did this past week. 

Sunday was the best day ever. Not only did we have six investigators at church, but it was Caitlyn's baptism and confirmation. Elder White was the one who baptized her, and everything went smoothly. Caitlyn is such an awesome person. On Saturday she told us that she was receive some opposition, but she was able to overcome by reading the scriptures and praying, and because she knew that this is what the Lord wanted her to do. In the thirty minutes between her baptism and being confirmed a member of the church, the Bishop came up to her and extended a calling to be on the activities committee. She is super excited about that. I was blessed to have the opportunity to be able to give her the Holy Ghost. It was such a great experience, and I am so happy about her decision to come closer to our Savior Jesus Christ by making these sacred covenants with him.

With those six investigators that came to church, each and everyone loved it so much. For three of them, it was their very first time ever coming. We will hopefully be setting some more baptismal dates pretty soon. As of right now we don't have any since Caitlyn was baptized.

Some other small highlights, we got caught in a rain storm just about ever day this past week. Summer is most definitely here. I love the lightning storms, except for those few times when we are in the very middle of them on our bikes. On Monday, we got hailed on, and it was pretty crazy how hard that it was coming down.

Sorry for the short email. I hope that everyone is doing great!! Love you all.


Sincerely,

Elder Leavitt
