Fernanda and Dulce's Baptisms

                                                                                                  Dec. 18, 2017
Hola Family,
 
The best part of this week was the baptisms of Fernanda and Dulce on Saturday!
 

Fernanda and Dulce were both baptized and their Dad was able to attend which was really cool.
 
 
There was great support from the Ward and a lot off their extended family was there too!
It is so cool to think that they are setting the example for the rest of the family.

 
   I know that one day their whole family will be converted because of their decision!
  

One of the young men we are working with, Kevin, went to church yesterday and had a great experience! He is excited to go next week and this week we are going to talk about baptism with him.
 
Alan couldn't go to church yesterday sadly, but he did accept a date for baptism and also a huge miracle is that a few weeks ago he found a Book of Mormon as he was cleaning out a storage area at his college. It is amazing how the Lord prepares people and it was a huge surprise when we taught about the Book of Mormon and he said "I have one of those!" So we will continue to work with him this week.
 
Franco and Raquel both brought friends to church yesterday which was really great to see!

Although we are working hard, we still take time to laugh and have fun.
Here are a few pictures to make you smile...
 
Did someone say cows? I herd that!

Bishop Oliver and Marcy took us out to Papa Johns on Monday night. It was great to catch up with them!
We are excited for Christmas! Busy as ever, we are trying to never forget the reason we are celebrating.

This week we remember the birth of the Savior of the World. This child was born to bring us eternal life and to show us the way back. I am so grateful for our Savior Jesus Christ, who gave up celestial glory to be born in the humblest of mangers and cast out by mankind, all because of His love for us!

Merry Christmas!

Love,
 
Elder Harris
