16/18th of the way done!

Well hey there!! 


This week has been wonderful!! Just a couple of things I wanted to share with you all!

First, Kristen was baptized this week!! It is always an incredible moment when you get to see someone enter into the waters of baptism and they choose to make God the center of their life.

Then I got to also do splits with Sister Maldonado!! We had Sarah coming to the YSA ward, and Kristen getting confirmed in the family ward, so the other sisters in the family ward helped us out. It was a blast. Sister Maldonado is an amazing missionary!! 

Now Sarah...Oh my goodness, she is amazing. We had a Temple tour with her and on the way UP to the Temple she lets us know that she wants to be baptized!! Well, she has accepted the date of JUNE 2ND!! She is so ready and prepared. She has gone through a lot in a short amount of time, but she knows that this is where God wants her to be at this time. 

We also then had the opportunity to Skype home on Sunday for Mother's Day!! I absolutely loved it!! I love my family so much and am so grateful for them. Seeing them made me realize just how close the end really is and that sometimes we do not fully appreciate what we have until it is 'almost' gone or already gone. We just have to trust that what we given and what we continue to give is enough for God. 

I am excited for the miracles we are going to be seeing this week. We know they are out there. 

Much Love Always, 
Sister MJ Baird
