Baptisms


Wow, what a week it has been! Elder Decker and I have been super busy this week teaching tons of lessons.  Elder Decker is feeling much better, just still really tired in the mornings when he wakes up. Once we get out, we’re running on all fours. Even though we only had 5 days to proselyte, Wednesday to Sunday, we were able to teach 32 lessons this week! Wow, what a busy schedule it was to do that. But things are going super good. There were 114 people at church, which is super great because this is just a small branch that has been growing immensely over the past 6 months to a year. We had 15 investigators at church too, which is super awesome, and such a blessing for them. And it is a miracle for us to see them learn, grow, and change.
This week I had the opportunity to perform a baptism! Yay, my first one! These are just the first of many baptisms to come; we are working with a lot of families, and I am excited to see them continue to learn and grow. 
This week we met a lot with a recent convert family. Well, we were at their house a lot. We sit down, and then our investigators start coming over and we teach them a lesson, and then the next one comes. And then another recent convert, and then another investigator. So many! We have 17 investigators that have a baptismal date, and many more that are on the way to getting one. And our recent converts are giving out referrals like crazy! We got 9 new investigators this week, all referrals from recent converts.
President Moon is amazing. I am so super excited to work with him and get to know him. We learned a lot, and he has a great vision for Cambodia.  I will surely miss President and Sister Smedley though. They were incredible. Two of the greatest people I have had the pleasure of serving my mission with.
