OH MY HECK!!! MIRACLES!!!!!! Wow, so there have been so many miracles that have happened this week!!! It has been so amazing. So by far the best part about this week was last night, Andre and Patrice both got baptized!!! It was by far the best baptismal service I've ever been to, there was so much love, and the spirit was SO strong!! It was just so wonderful. I am still on the spiritual high from last night, every time I think about it I feel so great. Andre wasn't planning on getting baptized last night as of a week ago, but so many prayers of faith changed him and gave him the courage he needed to take that step with his wife. They've been investigating for over a year now, and the Elder who found them at the very beginning (far left), was able to come and baptize them! He goes home in 2 weeks. Me and him doubled up for Andre since he's 405 lbs. There were angels in that font helping us, that's for sure... The ward loves them so much, they're the ones who got married back in June my first transfer here. I cannot describe how wonderful it was. Its moments like this that make it all worth it. Every day is great, but these experiences really just light up everything. Haha yep! That is really all that needs to be said about this week, it was really good. It was crazy trying to get everything lined up for the baptism, and its always crazy haha, but life is so good.
I know this is the Church of Christ, and I know that He is running His church, through inspiration and revelation, through the Priesthood keys. From the Prophet down to every Bishop to every single member, God has set up the church of Christ to bless the lives of all who enter there. And it is to invite all others to enter therein, for it is only there that the blessings of salvation are available. Everyone needs this. I need Jesus just as much as every human out there. We all need him. And this path is how we fully access His Grace and His Power in our lives. It is real. It is true. Jesus is the Christ, and only His Atonement can save us. I so testify in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
I love you all, have a wonderful week.
-Love, Elder Ellis
