SORRY!!

Ok, FIRST I feel I need to apologize for not posting anything in such a long time!! What's wrong with me?? My bad, my bad...I'll do better in the future, I promise! It's been a crazy last few weeks though, not going to lie!

First of all, I GOT MY FIRST BAPTISM!!! It was an absolutely amazing. It went perfectly. It was of our investigator Victor. Here's a picture of it. And, of course, I have to have one of these as well! Anyways, he asked me to baptize him and it was such a powerful, spirit-filled experience to be able to be a part of such a sacred, eternal ordinance.

I was really excited to see Victor make such a wonderful choice, as well! He had been prepared for this day for sure. An honest, kind, caring, passionate individual whose greatest desire was to find what it was that his Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ, wanted him to do in this life. He definitely found it! And I know that the rest of his life is going to be so much more vibrant and full of love, peace, and joy because of it.

The next thing I need to talk about is the fact that I got a new companion! You probably got that from the fact that you definitely don't know the new kid in that last picture. Yea, I don't think I've mentioned that yet, but Elder Garn has left and now Elder Poast is here! It's definitely a lot different! I mean, I only have to look down a few inches at him now instead of a foot. It's really throwing me off. He's an awesome Elder. Likes to work hard. Likes to have fun. And likes to have fun while he works hard. That's really all I could ask for! He says that the mission has changed him so much and that he has grown immeasurably already, but, that he knows that if he does everything he's supposed to, so many amazing things will continue to happen.

I'm excited for our companionship. We both want to get out there and help our ward find those people who are ready for the message we carry!

Other than that, only a lot has been going on. I am continually learning. It's unbelievable just how much I still don't know. I am in constant awe as I further and and more fully realize the depth and reality of both my Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ. There are a couple scriptures that have really struck me lately:
"...all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and it motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator."
~Alma 30:44
EVERYTHING shows to me that there DEFINITELY is a God! We met a man, probably in his mid-twenties, a few days ago who said that he thinks that if there is no god and everything happened by accident, THAT would be a much bigger miracle than if someone had created it. I have to disagree with him. If we are sent here to start our journey to become like our Heavenly Father, I think it is much more miraculous that we can become being with such unfathomable abilities as to create worlds and universes!

Jesus Christ is my Savior, Heavenly Father love me, and this gospel is most definitely true.

Love Y'all!
