Dear Family,
Cynthia was baptized on Saturday and confirmed yesterday! She seems to be very happy. I will attach a picture of her and of Josue (her boyfriend who is a member of the church) Zulma went to the Relief Society broadcast with us on Saturday. I think she was a little confused by some of the stuff like Visiting Teaching and the pioneers but at least she could feel the Spirit. She has told us she wants to be baptized but that she doesn’t know when. She is the process of praying to get an answer. A few weeks we had a multi zone conference with Elder Duncan (an area authority). He talked to us about giving a teaching record to our investigators for their own copy so that they can see what they need to accomplish before being baptized. It’s actually really helpful because Zulma was able to go through and tell us what principles she doesn’t understand yet for example she asked, “What’s the resurrection” or they can ask us to teach about something they want to learn more about. It’s been good for her to have a vision of her progress before baptism to help things move along. Her boss has showed a lot of interest too so we’ve started teaching her these past few weeks. But she has a lot of crazy questions about the Church like…”Why does the Prophet have body guards?” and other interesting stuff like that. We’ve been trying to keep things simple and direct it back to the basics to not confuse Zulma.
Well, hope you are all doing well and that you enjoy Conference this weekend.
Love,
Hermana Jackson
