Baptism Day

We had a baptism On Saturday May 23rd. We have been helping teach Mary, a single gal, the lessons. She really enjoys being involved in the ward, and has already sung with the ward choir.
She especially likes that the Mormon Church teaches that there is life after this and that she will have the chance to see her dad again. She was touched by the story of the Atonement and how Jesus suffered for all of us so that we could live with God again. Her prayers are simple, sweet, and heartfelt. It has been a blessing to us to teach her, and to hear her perspective on things.
The Elders are teaching a couple from Kentucky. I love them. Whether they end up joining the church or not. Tania is a kindred spirit. She is great. I could just sit and talk to her all day. As a plus, she likes country music concerts as much as I do. I love meeting all these amazing people.
Such diversity here, and such interesting people everywhere. Senior Missions are the coolest.
