Baptism

Tonight I was asked to play the piano for a baptism. This was the first time I have ever played the piano for a church function, other than filling in for primary now and then. It went well! I didn't make one mistake. The baptism was conducted in spanish, which was fun to attend. The man who was baptized was named Raul. After he was baptized, as they were bringing him up out of the water, Raul began bawling. I had never seen this before at a baptism. It was so humbling to see. It really made me think about what a wonderful ordinance baptism is and how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to be baptized. I am grateful to have been there at Raul's baptism. The Spirit was very strong. If you have questions about baptism and want to learn more, click HERE.
