last email........JOSE GOT BAPTIZED!!!!!!!!!! - February 17, 2014

FAMILYYYYYYYY and friends!!!

Jose got baptized!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have no idea how happy I am. At the beginning of the week my compy and I were pretty set on him not getting baptized this week but man did God have other things in store haha.

On like a Tuesday this past week we had a cita with him and he just starts off by saying, "I want to get baptized now. I am convinced that this is the true church and that this book is from God. I know it and nobody can ever take it away from me. I don't care if people laugh at me or make fun of me. This is true and I want to be baptized this Sunday."

I was completely shocked and started tearing up while laughing with joy. It was the greatest thing in the world. We were all just having such a good laugh and cry and just so happy for him!!!! Jose has such an incredible faith. Ever since the beginning he has been all in and put everything on the Gospel first. He made God his priority and for that reason he was baptized a quick 3wks later after receiving a huge confirmation that the Book of Mormon was true. I cant get over how awesome he is!!! and how awesome the BOM is!!!!! I love it!

We ended up sharing the baptism service with another guy who also had such a strong testimony of the BOM. It was a beautiful baptism (even though my compy and I were stressed out the entire time) and I had the opportunity to bear my last testimony in spanish. It was kind of a crap testimony because they told me right then and there and then there were like 100 people at the baptism. I wanted to die lol. I just spoke about the first time we met Jose (such a funny story) and how the BOM and the Gospel is for everyone. Not just those that are Christian but for every single person.

I am so grateful for my mission. It truly has changed my life. I never knew that I was having success as a missionary until looking back now on all of the events that have happened in mission. I can see that Heavenly Father has been with me at every moment of my life blessing me and helping me be the person that I am today. I hope to keep going and share this incredible gift that the Gospel is with all of my friends.

I love you guys so much and I want to thank all of you for writing me and praying for me. I couldnt have finished without your help. See all very soon!!!

Love
