JASMINE'S BAPTISM

Another Baptism in Erfurt

Jasmine and Elder Watkins, who baptized her...


...and the Sisters who taught her.


Antje and Jasmine, our two newest members, reflect happiness and joy.





BAPTISM
Mosiah 18:8–10

8. And it came to pass that he said unto them: Behold, here are the waters of Mormon (for thus were they called) and now, as ye are desirous to come into the fold of God, and to be called his people, and are willing to bear one another’s burdens, that they may be light;

9 Yea, and are willing to mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, and to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life— 10 Now I say unto you, if this be the desire of your hearts, what have you against being baptized in the name of the Lord, as a witness before him that ye have entered into a covenant with him, that ye will serve him and keep his commandments, that he may pour out his Spirit more abundantly upon you?


HOLY GHOST

2 Nephi 31:13
...I know that if ye shall follow the Son, with full purpose of heart,...with real intent, repenting of your sins, witnessing unto the Father that ye are willing to take upon you the name of Christ, by baptism--yea, by following your Lord and your Savior down into the water...behold, then shall ye receive the Holy Ghost; yea, then cometh the baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost; and then can ye speak with the tongue of angels, and shout praises unto the Holy One of Israel.





Going home...

...on the Strassenbahn...


...singing,with Ian (and his mother).
