Hurricanes, baptisms and big goals!!

This week has been really great! We had zone meeting where President Pearson and the AP's were there so it was really good! They continued to talk about how our mission President expects to baptize 1820 people this coming year! Which would mean that there would have to be 36 baptisms every week throughout the mission. Right now the mission baptized about 6 every week! It is a huge goal and I am so excited to accomplish this goal!  Each companionship would have to be baptizing every 10 days! Jamaica would be able to get a temple in close to 4 years, because you need around 5 stakes to consider for a temple and right now there is one stake here in Jamaica! Really the big push is building all of our faith so that we can accomplish this goal… if we have the faith and we put in the work, then Heavenly Father will make things happen!

As for today we are emailing because Monday and next week we will probably be inside due to a hurricane headed our way so we will see what happens. But I am so excited and know that we will be able to start baptizing every 10 days so we can help hasten the work here in Jamaica! I am also very excited for the day that this country will get their own temple!
