May 16, 2016- Tim’s Baptism

Hey Everyone! This week was so great! We have had a lot of rain and then on Sunday it snowed! The weather is so crazy! luckily it didn't stay! 

We finished teaching Tim the Lessons and then Tim got baptized! President and Sister Gerber came to the baptism and they are great support. Tim was so happy and had a glow to him. He truly has a testimony of the church and a desire to follow Christ. The baptism was so spiritual and everyone was so happy and supportive of Tim. Tim's mom (Mary) really felt the spirit! Mary told us that she felt it as he was getting baptized. On Sunday, Tim was confirmed and received the Holy Ghost. She also came to his confirmation on Sunday! Mary had a really good time at church and felt the spirit. She now wants to investigate the church! She never had an interest in learning but after the baptism and church she wants to learn more/ She said she has a lot of questions but we are going to start meeting with her and teaching her. It is a miracle from God. The Gospel blesses families. 

We also met with a Less Active Sister Delossantos! She is doing really good. She is busy with the kids and stuff but we talked to her about the Temple. She is really wanting to go back. We talked to her also about Family History and showed her how to do it. We set up her account and she was able to find her father. It made her really happy. 

We were also able to find several potential investigators this week. We are going to go see them this next week. 

We also had Specialized Training and it was great. President Gerber talked about focusing on our missionary purpose. It made me refocus on my mission and learn how to find meaning in our purpose.  

Ponderizing Scripture: this week I have been ponderizing John 17:3. It talks about knowing the only true God! 

Well I hope you all have a great week and thanks so much for all your Support!

Me, Tim Bruton, Sister Estioko
