Cameron was able to perform his first baptism in the Philippines a couple of weeks ago. His mission president recently changed the rules that only members could perform the baptisms to now missionaries can do baptism's. So here is Elder Leavitt and his recent convert.
We always love to see pictures of Elder Leavitt, and we are always surprised by how much taller he is than everyone else.
What a beautiful family. In order to be baptized this couple first had to get married. I guess this is a big problem in this country, and the missionaries worked hard to make the marriage happen. Who knew that it would be so hard to find someone to marry this couple. The missionaries had the town mayor perform the marriage it took several weeks of hard work, but they made it happen.
Elder Leavitt in his baptismal clothes. Another little problem is that the ward did not have any clothes long enough for a six foot person, so after cleaning out the font the missionaries had to track down baptismal clothes that would fit this TALL missionary. He was so glad they found some that fit, thank goodness there was another american missionary close by.
And this is the result of all the hard work of the missionaries. This beautiful family now has the gospel in their lives and can someday be sealed together for eternity!
This is who the missionaries are teaching now. This gas station attendant. They found out that the other attendant is an inactive member, so they kinda got a 2 for 1 deal. We love our missionaries and all the hard work they do so that others can have the blessings of the gospel.
