This week was insane, but really the only thing I want to talk about was Saturday. On Saturday we had the baptism of Carolina and Cristian. I cant even explain the joy that I felt that day, sometimes my companion and I would just jump around and start singing and dancing. It was a very long day, the baptism started at 7 at night, and the wait was killer. When Carolina and Cristian showed up I had to hold back the tears they both showed up in white (they are the cutest columbian couple in the world.) Its been a long time coming with them, they´ve been investigating the church for over a year and a half. We never thought we would get them in the water but wow. IT HAPPENED!
My favorite part was after the baptism Carolina and Cristian bore their testimony. Carolina with all the confidence in the world said "I am proud to be a member of this church!" Wow. Tears. Tears galore. It was such a special day, and it happened 1 year and 1 day that I received my mission call. Who would have thought a year ago I would be in Los Cristianos teaching some of the most amazing people the most important message we have to share. This year has gone by fast but its been oh so sweet. I hope you all have a great week! I miss you all.
Con Amor,
Hermana Shurtz
