Great Multitudes of Blessings

Hello hello hello!

This has been an amazing week! Unfortunately, I don't have a ton of
time to tell y'all about it, so I'll hit all of the main points!

The biggest thing was the entirety of Tuesday, we were able to visit
with the Groves and while doing so, the two kids we were teaching told
us that they wanted to be baptized! They also told us that they wanted
their grandfather (who lives in Utah) to baptize them. So while there
is not a date set in stone as of yet, they are going to let us know
when he can come down and baptize them! I am super excited to continue
teaching them and see the blessings that the gospel brings into their
lives! Immediately after that, Jaelyn, Jaymie's (was baptized last
time I was in the area) now 9-year old daughter told us that she now
wants to be baptized and we set up all the appointments to go over and
teach her to be baptized on the 18th of September! Once again, I'm
super excited to see the blessings of the gospel in Jaelyn's life and
the life of the rest of her family! I love being out here and seeing
those blessings and power of the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ!

On Friday, we had zone conference, which was once again, super
awesome! We talked about teaching the Restoration of the Gospel,
particularly sharing the First Vision with those we teach. It was a
super spiritual conference and I also got to sing the special musical
number for it (I sang "Savior, Redeemer of my Soul") and it went super
well! So well, that Sister Johnson came up to me after the conference
and asked me if I would sing it for the September Why I Believe, which
I am SUPER excited for!

Again, more great things happened this week, but I am unfortunately
very short on time... I love you all! Have a fantasticly wonderful
week!
