Hello everyone, it's been a while but in all honesty not much new happens these days. It's pretty much the same each day, we just message people on Facebook and come up with creative posts. There aren't too many crazy adventures haha. But this week, we had a baptism! Our friend Bogdan was baptised, and it was a special experience. It took place in Lublin which is like 2 1/2 hours away from where we are in Kielce.
We met the sisters and some members in Lublin and we travelled out to the Lake where the baptism was to take place. It was a little while away. It was a huge lake. We found ourselves what we thought was a secluded spot. We got ready in the trees, that was an interesting experience haha, never thought I'd be getting myself dressed in the woods on my mission but it all added to the experience 😂 we got into the lake and it was freezing cold! I almost screamed like a little girl haha. But I didn't, I promise. Once me and Bogdan had made it to about waist high (waist high for him was only upper thigh for me so I was counting my blessings) we turned around to do the baptism. Once I looked back, our secluded spot had turned into a blooming hotbed for spectators. I'm probably just exaggerating but it seemed like 30 people had showed up. It was a great experience and Bogdan entered into a covenant with his Heavenly Father. It really makes every experience worth it. I love this work and it's a blessing to be a part of.
Love and miss you all, speak soon!
