Saturday and Sunday – Baptisms

 Saturday is p-day for most senior couples but this Saturday a number of us came into the office to catch up after transfers. The APs worked with elder Bare to try and get vehicles and gas cards straightened out. The mission received all new gas cards and they had to be distributed to the missionaries. They were just making sure that the right vehicles had the right gas card. Elder Shipley was not praying that things would work out, he actually found it the best way to work his list and his phone.

I took these two pictures of the lake and the sky about 15 minutes apart. The fountain comes on at about 8:00 each morning and turns the mirror like water into ripples. It was a perfect if somewhat cool morning in Fort Lauderdale.

We went out and helped eldes Jones and Van Wagenen round up a family of investigators. The two young men were baptized today. The cute 8 month old girl will need to wait about 7 1/3 years. Mary played for the baptism which went well. A young priest baptized one of the young men and afterwards said he had made a couple of mistakes but we told him that it happens to everyone – elder Van Wagenen knows from experience.
