First Baptism - 13 April 2015

Dearest Friends and Family,

This week has been quite the adventure, even though it has only been a few days since last I wrote you all. Since Temple day we have finally reached the ultimate goal of the mission: a baptism!

The four in the middle are the converts. The two by the other Elders were their investigators Alfa and Camilo and the others are ours, Martha and her son Angel. To clear up any confusion: No, I did not officiate the ordencance because Angel wanted the bishop to do it and Martha desperately wanted Elder Alexander to officiate for her. Still, it was an amazingly spiritual experience.

Seeing people come one step closer to eternal life and bringing themselves to Christ is an amazing experience. It makes all the hardships and stress worth it. Coming to love a person and then bringing them to the waters of baptism is the whole reason we wear these placards.

Sé que el Señor nos da bendiciones cada dia. Sé que el Evangelio es el unico manera en que podemos entrar en el reino de Dios. Sé que podemos vivir con nuestros seres queridos para siempre atravez los ordenanzas del evangelio y este conocimiento me da mucho consuelo y felicidad.

Los amo,

Elder Lambert
