She Is So Excited To Be Baptized, She Doesn't Have Words




From Cambree King
Teaching in Hondurus

We found an investigator whose name is Cecilia. We found her a couple weeks ago and she had been taught by missionaries for quite sometime. She has read the book of Mormon twice through, which is more than many of the people here. We kind of stopped visiting her for a week or two because she wasn’t coming to church and she is always sick. Well... Sunday, Cecilia showed up in church and my companion almost started crying while she was directing the music. Cecilia is going to have a surgery in a few weeks but we got permission to baptize her next Sunday. It is truly a miracle and I am incredibly grateful that the Lord has allowed us to be the missionaries to help her. We visited her yesterday and she is so excited to be baptized, she just doesn’t have words. It has been an incredible experience. 


We also have an investigator Susan who has a baptism date for March. Last week she said she was coming to church but she ended up not coming for many little reasons. This Sunday, (she had been preparing since last Monday) she and her kids were here in church. When I asked her what she thought, she said she felt terrible that she missed out last week and she will not miss another Sunday. It is so incredible to see people experience the blessings of the gospel in their lives and come to feel of the peace and love that comes from the Holy Ghost.
