This week has been one of the best week's I've had since being on a mission! :) It began with a mission "funday" with President Porter and some of the missionaries in the surrounding two stakes. We played a few games and finished the afternoon by watching "17 Miracles". It was a perfect day.
We had been praying and fasting that the weather would be favorable for Saturday's baptism, and that Brother Howard (age 84) would be healthy enough to be baptized.
Friday came, and Brother Howard was excited to be baptized. Saturday came. The weather was BEAUTIFUL. :) I have been so blessed to be a part of Brother Howard's journey. The baptism was one of the most spiritual I have ever been to. I had arranged for the missionaries to sing "Nearer My God to Thee". The Spirit was so strong! (I just love music!) It's a miracle to see how Brother Howard's desire to follow God has increased even in the few weeks that I've known him.
I know this work is God's work! I know it! I live it! I love it!
I love you all! Have a great week!
Be Happy!
The best way to cheer yourself up is to cheer someone else up!
Love,
Sister Sarah Jane Lewis
It was a miracle that Brother Howard's wife was able to come to the baptism. :) They are so sweet. True love right there.
