Baptism

 We attended the most wonderful baptism on Saturday. Francois is from Guinea and speaks French so one of the members of branch was asked to perform the ordinance. Br. Gamble previously lived with his family in Paris. Their 10-year-old son gave a talk about baptism entirely in French! I told him he was so amazing, I would bring him chocolate chips cookies on Sunday, which I did.


These quarter sheet programs are so cute. I need to find out which missionaries are making them.


My favorite part of the well-attended baptism was when Francois bore his testimony. Both the Branch President and Br. Gamble translated: once into English and then into Romanian.


Afterwards we all gathered for a picture. What a special time.
