Over the Memorial Day weekend Tommy had the opportunity to baptize his friend Haley. We had a little party at our house afterwards and Sunday he confirmed her a member of the Church, giving her the gift of the Holy Ghost. It was really nice and we were glad to be a part of it. CONGRATS HALEY!
Tom and Haley
"...As ye are desirous to come into the fold of God, and to be called his people, and are willing to bear one another’s burdens, that they may be light;
"Yea, and are willing to mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, and to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life—
"Now I say unto you, if this be the desire of your hearts, what have you against being baptized in the name of the Lord, as a witness before him that ye have entered into a covenant with him, that ye will serve him and keep his commandments, that he may pour out his Spirit more abundantly upon you?
"And now when the people had heard these words, they clapped their hands for joy, and exclaimed: This is the desire of our hearts."
Mosiah 18:8-11
What a wonderful weekend!
