Cardiff, Wales - February 29, 2016

What a crazy week! Moein got baptised and he was so happy to finally be a member. He saw how Ahdi had changed at her baptism and desired to feel it for himself and now he has! Yesterday when he got confirmed he sat down and said to me, "I can feel it!" It was amazing! Moein is going to do wonders for this ward. He has such a strong testimony about the atonement already and he is excited to receive the priesthood soon! 😀

Moeins baptism was definitely the highlight of my week. We also have been doing a lot of service for the Bakers. They are moving/did move. Sister Baker is sad about the move because she loved her old house but this new house is fantastic! It's so nice! I would love to live in their new house. It's got a big yard and a summer home in the back and everything! They said they are going to have a BBQ in the summer. That will be fun (:

Seriously there is no joy like seeing someone follow Jesus Christ!! Oh boy, it just made me sooooo happy! We really focused this week on making the baptism as close to perfect as we could for him and for the ward. And then you know what, the ward really responded! They said they loved the baptism and the Spirit that they felt there! And then a bunch of people invited us to dinner. We have five da's this week! We have never had any where near that many in this area. A lot of the members told us that they liked the baptism and could tell that it was run by sisters which made us feel good. It was a total miracle! And we have two chances to do service this week!! We are finally getting the ward on our side. Oh my goodness it is such a great blessing from the Lord. Just goes to show that good preparation makes all the difference. I am just so excited! It was a great week and Heavenly Father is definitely sending His blessings.

Well have a great week! Love you all!

Love,

Sister Rasmussen 

 

P. S. I am doing a "100 day happy challenge" where I take a picture every day of something that makes me happy. So there should be a lot of pictures coming! Hope you like them!
