It has been so much fun getting acquainted with Maria and Alison. They became friends shortly before each chose to be baptized on the same day. They spent Friday evening sharing their mixed feelings that come to those who take the big leap to change their lives and follow the Savior. They were baptized at Ft. Granby on July 18, 2009.We had the privilege of teaching Maria over half of her lessons. She is awesome and she has a solid understanding of the concepts we taught.
Alison and Perez are half sister and brother, who met each other less than three years ago, and they have become fast friends. Perez has been sharing the gospel with her for a couple of years. Many missionaries have visited her. She has a solid understanding of gospel principles.

It is so cool that Perez is able to baptize his sister! He has been a member a number of years and is constantly reading and studying, including Preach My Gospel.
Maria is baptized by Elder Jones.
What a great morning!
