Week 43 (Jun 19th) - The church is true, the Book is blue, now ALISON is a Mormon too!

Happy Monday ya'll,

Alison's baptism was the happiest day ever! She was so excited she could hardly contain it. It was the sweetest experience! She just couldn't keep the smile off her face, and had random bouts of giddy laughter ๐Ÿ˜„ ah, it was the best.

 Seeing her so light and happy was the best experience of my mission so far. That pure joy of cleanliness and having the gift of the Holy Ghost is such a powerful thing to witness in others. What a blessing. (Elder Diede, who baptized her, and Elder Muaka. The APs)
Alison has worked so hard for this, and now she has a testimony that can never be taken from her. I admire her light so much. The spirit was so strong as she was confirmed, and received the gift of the Holy Ghost yesterday in Sacrament meeting.



A few weeks ago Alison told us her favorite songs were Come Thou Fount, and If You Could Hie to Kolob. You've all probably heard that beautiful mash up on youtube... So Sister Wright and I did our best to arrange a combo from memory, and surprised Alison with it at her baptism. There were happy
tears ๐Ÿ’™


Ignore our hysteria in the beginning. We'd already tried to record this
about 100 times, all over our apartment, before we ended up in the bath tub..
The bathtub version might be the best sounding :)
