Another Night of Baptisms

At the end of October we had seven more baptisms.   Elders Coffey and Rufus who serve in the Lelu Branch have been teaching Georgeston George family.  They were all baptized into the Church, the father, mother, and 3 of their 5 children.  They have a teenage daughter who will be joining with the other youth in the Young Women's program.  Their other children will be a part of the Primary. It is always a wonderful thing when an entire family joins the Church.  The Georgeston George family will be a great addition to the Branch.  We look forward to getting to know them better.  The father was recently ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood and given the office of a Priest.  This will be a blessing in their lives. 

Elder Matthews was able to baptize two young girls from the Utwe Branch this evening.  Both of them had just turned 8 years old.  Michelle Charley and Cathrine C. Baluyut.  Both of these girls were very excited to be baptized and had been looking forward to it for quite some time.  It is wonderful to see their enthusiasm for the Gospel.
