Baptism!

The greatest news of the week is the baptism of Lidia and Robert Kovacs. They were baptized this last Sunday. There are few words to describe the spirit of such a meeting. Their testimonies after their baptism were so sweet and genuine. Lidia's smile lit up the room and even Robert felt the difference. The members were a great support and were ready to welcome the new members into the ward.

Someone else very dear to my heart that I should have written about a long time ago is Fia. We have become fast friends and I always love to visit her. She is a less-active from Samoa. Her home is an oasis of the Islands and is filled with all that she brought with her when she moved to here. She has a great heart and we have seen many miracles in her returning to church. She has had a difficult life, but has such a testimony of the Book of Mormon and has given it as a gift to friends for years. I am so grateful for the opportunity to know her and look forward to seeing her again tomorrow morning. :)

As for me, I am still learning and growing every day. I can see the Father's hand in my life and feel of His love for me. With Him by my side, I can go forward in any venture He calls me to. It is realizing His strength is what sustains and supports each of His children.

I love you all so much,

Erica
