Hey Fam!!
What a great couple of weeks this has been! Alvins baptism, now
justice's baptism on Saturday and then we have another baptism this
coming Saturday! It's going to be so miraculous! And Layne is set for
the 18th of July!
Justice's baptism was a great one. Her dad was baptized when he was 18
and then was less active for most of his life. Missionaries found him
and his family and they baptized the mom and son this February.
Justice was a part of another church and didn't want anything to do
with the Mormon church. But over time she became more curious and she
began going to church with them and she wanted to go to the YSA. And
now she got baptized by her dad and then she asked me to confirm her!
That is one of my favorite things to do! There is a great spirit
during a confirmation.
Well it's sad to say that I have 8 weeks left...:/
Oooooooooh so we had some super cool stuff happen this week! We went
on exchange with some elders and I went to Paris with Elder Asay.
While there we were walking down this street and we saw this old guy
working on his truck and so we went up and talked to him. Come to find
out he is a really famous world war 2 veteran and that he was one of
the first soldiers onto Utah Beach on D-Day. He invited us inside and
told us tons of stories and showed us pictures and old war stuff. He
just got back from France where he is honored there every single year
and he's a hero to them. He's on the news and in the papers all over
there when he visits. It's crazy! So, I got a picture with him and got
his signature!
Also, that night we went to a members house for dinner and after we
ate they brought out their pet...... Snake. 4 ft long Boa. The hairs
on my neck stood up when I saw that thing. They finally got me to hold
it. It was actually pretty awesome to hold and was a nice snake.
Finally over came that fear. I still hate snakes....
That's all for this week! Love ya!!
Elder Eastin
