Sorry I didn't get an email sent off last week. Myldsmail.net is the worst email user ever! It deleted my email that took about 30 minutes to write. So I was a little frustrated and didn't have time to write a new one. So Ill tell you about the picture in this email.
> The other week had 2 more of our investigators baptized. Their names are Gan and Big. Gan is the Girl and Big is the guy. It was a really good baptism. Big has been preparing for this day for the last 6 months. He has had a problem with work and not being able to go to church on Sunday because of it. But we finally got him to talk to his boss and get Sunday off and he has gone ever sense! We had trouble finding him someone to baptize him though because he didn't just want anyone to do it. It had to be someone who he thought was spiritually close to God. So he picked the District President to just so happened to be in our Branch. But unfortunately he was going to be out of town the week of his baptism. So he had to pick someone else but could make up his mind. He asked if we could do it but we told him we wanted a member to do it instead. It was a huge dramatic event picking someone! So we told him that the 1st counselor in the Mission Presidency is also in our Branch and he could do it and he said OK! I think he didn't want anyone that didn't have the position of President to baptize him. Luckily Gan didn't care who baptized her so we just said hey President Samad is baptizing Big, do you want him to baptize you to? She said sure, why not! So that all worked out and the baptisms went well up until Gan had to bear her testimony in front of everyone. Usually after a person gets baptized, they will go up and share their testimony or something quick and Gan was terrified out of her mind! Her testimony reminded me of when I was back in Primary and how little 7 or 8 year old would give a talk. When it was Gan's turn to go up, she stood up and stared straight at her Mom and waited for her to come up to the stand with her. Once up there, they both stood at the pulpit and Gaw, Gan's Mom, told her everything to say. I felt a little embarrassed because there was our 14 year old investigator sharing her testimony like a Primary kid. Haha it was kind of funny because she was SO scared when it wasn't even a big. But she got through it and it ending really good. Elder Young shared an amazing arrangement on the piano of If You Could Hie To Kolob and Praise to the Man. Everyone was mesmerized at how good it was! Its nice having him around ha ha.
Well I got to go. I love you all!
