Dear Loved Ones,
Okay so I only have like 10 minutes so this one is going to be short. Not like my other ones are long or anything. But with week was great!! We have been working like crazy. On thursday it took us 2 hours yes 2 hours to BUILD the font on Thursday. Pretty much it is like a giant swimming pool. But it was fun. The baptism went really really well. Everyone was excited to be there but nobody as excited as Armando. He was so cute in his little white jump suit. It reminded me of my brothers on their baptism days. The program went nicely. A few hicups but nothing major. and Oh my Gosh the Spirit was so strong during the actual ordinance. I have never really felt the Spirit like that at other baptisms. I don't know if it is because I wasn't a missionary then or if it was because I didn't have the knowledge I have now about the great importance of baptism and what that actually means. I have been studying alot, no surprise, and everyday I learn something new. But Baptism is so important. Read through the book of Mormon. Almost every prophet speaks of repentance and baptism. Baptism is essential to enter in to the Celestial Kingdom to live forever with our Father in Heaven in Eternal joy with our family. What an amazing step that little Armando made this week! I am so excited for him. and I pray that it will be the first of many more baptisms in Nerja.
Our investigators are doing very well. We keep finding amazing people that love the Lord and want to come closer to Him. It is such a privledge to bear testimony daily of the Love of God and the Restoration of His church. I know this church is true. I know that the Book of Mormon was translated by Joseph Smith the prophet of the restoration. I know that we can become happier, have more peace, and experience greater love by obeying His commandments. I love you all very much and pray that the Lord guides and protects you.
Love,
Hermana Dayna Petru
