So this last week has been so
so good! Joseph was able to be baptized and confirmed! He is so awesome as I
have already said but it was a really great experience for all!! The baptism
was on the beach and it was just us, the Branch President, and Brother Willy
who were there for the baptism! Too bad there weren't more people but I guess
that is what happens when the branch is really small and really busy!
Then on Monday we flew back to
Kingston for the Christmas party! It was good to be back in Kingston for a bit
to be able to see some other missionaries and they made some really nice food!
Haven't had ham for a long time so it was great to get to eat a nice meal and
play some games! Then we flew back today and got back just a bit ago! So
this week was really busy but it was really nice! As for being out here, it has been different trying to talk and contact those in different
languages but it has also been a really humbling experience to see the
difference between the Haitians and people who literally have nothing but some
zinc over there heads compared to some of those who have huge multi million
dollar mansions on the beach!! Yes there houses are cool and they have a lot
nice stuff but they don't like to talk to us so much... the people who are humble
and don't have too much are wanting to learn and become more like their Savior!
And that has really strengthened my testimony of our purpose in this life! It's
not to have the biggest house and the nicest truck but to be able to really find true happiness through the gospel and following the Savior Jesus
Christ!
