My Favorite Things - September 30, 2013

One of my favorite things is seeing people repent and helping them receive the baptism of Jesus Christ. We had two baptisms this week. The Spirit is so strong and afterwards you get to think about your own baptism. This gospel is really a gospel of eternal importance. People out there are missing their salvation if we don't share it.
 
Monday was good. It was super rainy and I slept with the window open and I woke up to rain falling all over me. Not exactly what I had planned to happen.
 
Tuesday we had 12 lessons scheduled and we had to split up to do them all. We ended up doing 10. Sometimes it's really hard to contact them all.
 
Wednesday I got thrown around with companions because we didn't have a companion for me and my companion was at a meeting. I have been on splits so many times in the past few months that it's weird to teach with my companion. It rarely happens.
 
Thursday was a bit more calm, we found out that one of our amis who didn't really want the lessons decided to be baptized in two weeks. That is the power of faith and action.
 
Friday we had to look for an ami who was supposed to be baptized but we couldn't find her, that was sad but we got some really cool photos at their house.
 
Saturday was the baptism and that was a powerful experience.
 
Sunday I bore my testimony and gave the closing prayer. I'm really falling in love with the people here.
 
Today has been calm, so far.
 
I love this work. I am happy. Follow Christ with all your heart. Keep up your good lives and the Lord will keep blessing you.
 
I love you all, I pray for you often,
 
Love, Elder Squires
