Dear family,
Thank you all so much for all the letter I love hearing from
you all. this week I was able to have my first baptism and it was great! I baptized David, 14, and then Karen the mom was also baptized. when we got in
the water i got all confused on which way i was suppose to stand and which way
he was suppose to stand so we were like walking in circles for a minute but
after that it went well. i think my favorite part of the day was when Karen and
David were confirmed the holy ghost and the blessing that came with it. i love
standing in the circles of blessing even if I'm not the speaking and being able
to feel the spirit. stake conference was this week and it was great. the temple
pres was there and spoke about our priesthood will be the only thing that will
be able to save lives in the near future and how important it is to keep worthy
of that because medical technology and other things will become almost useless.
it was powerful. they also talked a lot about testimonies and how important it
is to share your testimony for your own benefit of it growing and also for
others because they need to hear that to build there own. i was able to go to the
mesa temple on Tuesday with the zone and it was really good. amazing to be able
to feel so close to god as we are in his house. we found a lot of new
investigators last week which was great so this week hopefully we can contact
them and they are interested. there's some crazy ideas in this world ha-ha but I am loving the scriptures but not loving how hard it is to decide to what to
study for the day because it is all so good and we only have an hour. our other
investigators we already had are doing well and progressing I love seeing the
change in peoples lives as they accept the gospel principals and say yes I will pray or come to church or anything and then the blessings soon after.
I love you
Elder Stevenson
