Hi-up me ducks!!

hi-up me ducks!
Thats the lingo here for hey everyone! hahaha

Oh my goodness this past week and a half was brilliant!!!
We had a baptism on saturday, and I performed it! We had about 5
different missionary teams attend with investigators and a lot of the
ward came as well so it was really nice! The spirit was definitely
there!!!! Chantelle is an amazing little girl. She knows the gospel so
well! She is so innocent and soaks everything up that we teach. The
best thing though is that she doesnt take our word for it, but asks
Heavenly Father in prayer if its true. It was all her decision to be
baptised. Her sister will soon follow! Things are happening in that
family's life and the only person to credit that to is God.

I believe that there is no greater joy in life than to serve others. I
truly have felt so happy this week. I focused on others all day every
day and I have seen the blessings from God roll in to my life. We are
getting so very close to this one family in the ward and I feel the
spirit every time we go to their house. Their kids love us so much
too, its fun to play with them and see the excitement they get when
they see us hahaha We have seen a change in this family that has come
about through the spirit of the Lord. I know that each of us is a
child of heavenly parents and that we are in relation as spirit
brothers and sisters. We need to help out one another as much as
possible. I guarentee that the person who serves other throughout the
week will receive so many blessings that they will not have room to
hold them. The gospel of Jesus Christ is real and He is coming soon.
We must prepare every day for when that happens.

Ummm, so yeah, the rest of the week was sweet. We just really spent
loads of time with the people we are working with. Oh, Elder Tulip and
I are staying together for another transfer!!! That will put my time
here in Nottingham to 9 months at the end of the transfer. I am so
pleased about that. I would stay here for the rest of my mission if I
could! hahaha

My testimony this week is this. God still speaks to us today. He will
reveal His will to us if we ask, and then work. So many times this
week I felt the Lord tell me and my companion so many different things
for the benefit of others. We, having cleansed ourselves first, are
receiving revelation straight from God. How cool is that?!?! Its a
good feeling.

I hope that you all have a great week and search out opportunities to
serve! You will be happier! haha

Godbless.
-Elder Jaquish
