Baptisms and Bonnie

Hello!
Great week this week! As always :)
First of all and most importantly, Areiona, Jeannie, and Felicia were baptized! Their baptism went really well! It was a pretty small turnout but everyone that A, F, and J really wanted to be there was. They definitely all have a long way to go in terms of understanding the gospel completely but they are on the right path! They have taught me that knowing all the answers isn't a prerequisite for baptism. All that is needed is a humble heart and faith to follow the Savior. 

We also had an awesome lesson last night with a new investigator named Bonnie. She moved here in April from Afton, Wyoming and became pretty close with her next door neighbors who are members of the church. They invited her over to their home for a lesson last night and it was awesome! We taught the message of the Restoration and she just kept telling us that she didn't know how to know if it was true! That is like the best question we can get as missionaries. We explained that if she wanted to know spiritual truth she had to go directly to the source of all truth and ask God. She isn't quite sure how she will receive her answer but we plan to help her recognize the spirit as we continue to teach her. 

Well I love you all! Hope you have a fantastic week! 

Until next time,
Sister Park
