Babtism of Melanhe

Dear friends and family

Well this week was super awesome, Melanhe, an investigator weve been teaching for three months now got babtized. The babtism was super special, lots of members showed up, and supported her, which alwasy makes me super happy. The water heater didnt work all that well though, so when melanhe was babtised, it was still freezing cold.  haha, but it all worked out. Melanhe was super excited for her babtism, the whole time, she was thanking us for showing her the restored gospel and thanking others for their support as well. 
So that was the experience we had that week, it makes me so happy, when people recieve answers to their prayes and are converted to the gospel in such a way. We invite people to read and pray, and explain why, and pray that the people we teach fulfil our invitations for them to read and pray. because thats shows a heart willing and desiring spiritual knowledge. And when someone demonstrate this attitude to god, it shows him their faithfulness, and gods hand opens up, and poors blessings upon us, giving us that spiritual growth and conviction we all need. The scriptures are full of invitations like the one in James 1~5 Ask and ye shall recieve. Its a very true promise, and a very real promise. Whatever you ask God, being just and in the name of the Son, you will recieve an answer to your prayer. 
Love ya all, and stay strong
