The best part of the week was Kastileens baptism on Saturday. The members came to support and it was a really special experience. I'm so grateful for this ward! Kastileen's mom Dayneen is so excited to get baptized and our prayers were answered this week as her boyfriend/husband finally told her that he would pay for a marriage certificate so that she can be married and baptized next month!
Also, our investigator Alice came to the baptism and she came to church and she loved both so much! She really felt the spirit and we haven't even taught her a full lesson yet, but she is so excited to get baptized.
After Kastileens baptism, her mom bought cake and ice cream for us and her family to celebrate:)
Also, we had a sweet lesson with a chuukese girl who wants to get baptized but her aunt who she lives with has been really against the church. We closed the lesson with a prayer and sister memmott was praying very specifically that the families hearts would be softened. Well that aunt came into the room in the middle of the prayer, then started telling us that she just got back from chuuk and while on chuuk she had met elders and gone to church and now wants to learn more. FASTEST ANSWER TO A PRAYER EVER. Another cool thing about that is the island she met the Elders on has been closed to missionaries for a year. The elders she met were actually from another Island, but had to be moved earlier this month because of violence. God's plan is sooooooo good.
Oh and I gave a talk in Chuukese at Kastileens baptism! Heavenly Father has been blessing me with the gift of tongues, all of a sudden this week I can teach and understand so much more.
I'm grateful for all the love and joy in my life these days. I love being a missionary:)
