Hello Everybody! It's been a hot minute!
The past few weeks have been full of joy and hard work along with a fair share of challenges, but all is well! We have seen two baptisms in our area within the last couple of weeks. One for Tenywa Keneth and Lugonda Paul (see image). Sadly the photo for Keneth's baptism is lost, but not forgotten!
They were going to be baptized together a while back, but due to technical issues they happened when they happened. Which is better than them not happening I might add. This leads into the subject line. Saturday night we realized that the font was not getting filled and all the members who had keys to the chapel were seemingly busy. Until we called the 1st counselor of the Bishopric. He was more than willing to help, but his motorcycle was broken and he couldn't drive to the chapel. He lives 45 minutes away at a brisk pace. So we walked to his house, it being 9:30-10 pm at this point I might add. Once the key was in hand, Elder Maw turned to me and said, "We're gonna run it." Now, I have not ran seriously for about two years, and this was probably not good for my body, but we booked it from the village into town to get that font filled! I cannot say that the run home was equally as powerful, but I felt good afterward.
I wish I could say more, but time is short. Next week I'm going to give a recap of my mission, so that should be pretty long.
I love you all and thank you for your support as always.
Much love,Elder O'Hagan
