Washington D.C. Temple!

Hello Everyone! This week has been an amazing week and it flew by way too fast!  It was soooooo good to be at the temple and to feel of the spirit that is there and receive revelation about my life.  It’s an amazing temple. I loved it!

We were able to witness the baptism of Caden this week. He has been investigating the church for 2 years. He knew it was true and did everything a member would do, even wore a CTR ring. It's been super cool to see him commit to the gospel and change his life.

I don't have time to write the rest of my week, but I will email you all next week!

These are some pictures I took at the temple!  I hope you enjoy them.

This is the entrance to the temple!

I really like these plates that were on the front.

Had to get a temple selfie afterwards!

The missionaries in front of the temple!

I know how much my mom loves signs. ;)

Finally got to go to Café Rio!!!  I totally miss this place!

Oh man, that tostada was good. :)

This is a cannon ball shot that was fired at Carlisle in the 1800's during the civil war.

I have been wanting a bird to land on my arm for

sooooo long and now it finally happened! ;)

This is Sister Souba and she gave our recent covert,

Caden, a yellow watermelon.  She was super proud of it.

This was an exciting day!  So glad I could be a part of it!

We found the Batmobile today!!!

Sister Dunlap had lunch with the missionaries and sent Elder Ainsworth's mom this photo!

Another Baptism!

Hello Everybody! Sorry for the delay on last week’s update, but everything is going great! My new companion, Elder Clark is awesome and has a real desire to share the gospel with everyone, so we have been walking a lot this past week!

I was able to see the baptism of our newest member Dani. It was a very awesome experience and the spirit was definitely strong. I was also able to confirm her a member of the church and give her the gift of the Holy Ghost! It was a really cool experience and I know that she will remember that day for the rest of her life. We have another baptism coming up this Saturday for Caden, who has been taking lessons from the missionaries for a while, but is now ready for baptism. The work has been going good and I know the Lord has been blessing our efforts to find those who need to hear the message that we share.

I will be going to the Washington D.C. Temple this Thursday! I can't wait to be able to go through the temple again and feel the spirit that is there. Next week there will be lots of temple pictures! Other than that, I have been knocking doors most of the week, looking for more people to teach. I know that this church is true and that the message we share, blesses people’s lives in ways that we can never imagine. I know that my Savior loves me and each one of us. I'm glad for this opportunity to serve and change people's lives. I hope you all have a great week!

Cool Baptistery shot of me and Elder Clark!

This is Dani!  It was a very exciting day!

This is Brother Seitz. He has been with us for every lesson with Dani,

so it was cool to see him baptize her.

The middle one is Elder Ainsworth in Japanese!

A member wrote this for me.  It was super cool!
