We had another baptism this Tuesday! She's a nine-year-old girl named Arabella. She's INSANE, so it was kind of hard to teach her sometimes, but it was all worth it in the end when we were able to see her BAPTIZED.
Here she is with her family right before the baptism.
This one has us in it!
I actually had to give a short talk about baptism at the baptismal service, so that was fun.
This Sunday, we taught a mission preparation class for youth who are planning to go on a mission. It was pretty neat. We got to teach about how to prepare lessons based on people's needs. That's really important to us as missionaries because nobody is going to listen to our message if they think we're just trying to get numbers for the church. They really have to know why the Gospel can help them first, and then they'll be willing to talk to us more. We really try to focus on how we can help people, and that's what we talked about in the class. Then afterward, we were sent home with an entire pizza and half of a chocolate cake! Talk about good luck!
It actually snowed Saturday night, so when we woke up on Sunday, it was all white outside!
It was unexpected, but it was pretty! I guess Utah thinks it's still winter!
We hiked the Y last P-day. If you don't know what that is, it's a giant letter Y painted on the mountain by BYU. It was super cool!
I'm down here somewhere. The one taking the picture is Elder Gallegos. Elder Youngblood, from the MTC, is down there somewhere, too.
Anyway, that's really most of what happened this week. We taught some other lessons, talked to more people, but if I write everything that happened, nobody would be able to read it all! I hope you're all doing well. I know I am! ¡Que tengan buenas vidas!
Elder Rowe
