It was a very exciting day for us today. Ellie was baptized!
Since she is 11 her baptism was a convert baptism, so she got her very own baptismal service. Not only was she was able to choose who would perform her ordinances but she chose her program as well. The spirit was very strong, and I was emotional, but tried to keep it in. I did pretty well at that. It was wonderful to see all the people that were there to support her. And I felt loved and supported as well, because I know that some of them love them and know them because we have them in our home. I worry about what will happen when they leave, but I feel like getting baptized will help them. They understand and wanted to get baptized, so hopefully they will be able to keep those desires strong. I am grateful their on the records so that there will be youth leaders aware of them. And if they do start to get lost, there will be rescuers.
Here are pictures or our day--
