before her baptism and she LOVED it! Then she got baptized and it was a great service overall! The man who baptized her has been returning to re-activity. Right after the baptism we were checking up on him outside the font and he came out crying and said "Thank you for giving me this opportunity, I didnt think i would ever be able to do this" The spirit hit me strongly and i felt like it whispered "He needed this just as much as R needed this" and it was a great experience. Its awesome to see how Heavenly Father works. We were pondering a lot at first of who we would bring to her lessons to have her become friends with in the ward, and now we all know why the spirit put his name into our heads. We then got to go to do an endowment with a recent convert and that was amazing as always! I received a lot of answers on things and feelings of peace. I definitely needed that this week! We also had the Christmas devotional and so we got to see all the missionaries in the mission which was a blast! J is SOOO excited for her baptism on the 30th! A lot of non members should be coming so it should be a great opportunity to find some awesome new people! Overall it was a good week. Thanks for the Christmas packages!!
Love your son,

So CRAZYYY story behind this!! To make it short, Elder Langston and I were at the church preparing things for our baptism in the afternoon and we had some garbage from our lunch. Well the cleaners had just come and taken out all the garbages so for some odd reason I insisted we go out to the dumpster to take out our trash. Usually I wouldnt care, but for some reason this time I did. Well we walked out there and right next to the dumpster was this 60' Flatscreen TV!!! E. Langston was almost positive it didnt work, and i was guessing it didnt, but i found an iPhone in the garbage earlier on my mission that ended up working, so i basically begged him to help me carry it in to the chapel so we could plug it in and really see if it worked. Well we plugged it in, and then i connected my iPad to it, and low and behold, it works!!! I had to hold the reset button for a second but after that it turned right on!! It glitches a tiny bit but it still works great!! Haha so we left a note by the dumpster saying to call us if someone was looking for it. So if after a week or so nobody has called we're going to go sell it to the pawn shop and secretly give the money to one of our investigators so they can buy a ring to get married!! Talk about manna from heaven right?!!!
