Baptism! - October 31, 2011

The Navarro Family

 GUSTAVO, VIRGINIA AND MATIAS NAVARRO HAVE ENTERED UNTO THE WATERS OF BAPTISM!!!! 

The baptism was AMAZING! Thank you for your prayers. We had a bigger assistance of people at the baptism than we normally do at our sacrament meeting (around 50 people). It seriously turned out like a dream, a very spiritual meeting for all. But, it didn't come with out opposition. (As always!)

At 730 am the morning of the baptism the Familia Navarro called us. And yes, Argentines don't even wake up that early so we knew something was wrong. An evangelical preacher friend of theirs came knocking on their door with all Anti-Mormon information in hand trying to convince them not to get baptized. I had just gotten out of the shower but we ran over to the house to try to talk to this lady. I was furious, knowing the enemy was only trying to frustrate our plans but I prepared myself knowing it would be a bible bash. So it was, a calm 3.5 hrs doubt and answers to EVERY doctrinal question you could ask. We were calm, prayed, and even though she tried to get us worked up, we could not be flustered. I was very very grateful for such great help from the spirit. She left probably feeling silly trying to find an error in the church but found all the answers and the Flia Navarro had no doubts, it actually was a stronger testimony for them. So, we were greatly blessed!

The baptism were amazing. We sung a hymn with the other Hermanas and it went really well. They got confirmed AND they received the priesthood the same day!!! I also gave a talk on missionary work. So yes, I'm exhausted.

TRANSFERS are this Thursday!! So next week I will be somewhere else!

Sorry this is all rushed, I am doing a few projects. Iove you all!!!!
