A Great Baptism Tonight




Ghomsi Guy Rodrigue was baptized this evening - the first to be baptized in Iceland in 2010. He is a student at the University of Iceland from Camaroon. He has been in Iceland the last 5 months and will be here 2 more years before returning to Camaroon. Courtney (baptized Ghomsi) and Betty Ward and their family have been fellowshipping Ghomsi since the missionaries first brought him to Church. They have become good friends. As Betty said in her talk on the Holy Ghost, they share a common thread both being from Africa. The reason for two pictures of the Elders - we could not get them all in the picture at the same time. One of the fun things about being such a small mission is all of the missionaries in the mission usually get an opportunity to teach everyone who is baptized. The only ones who usually are not involved in all the baptisms are the couples as we usually only teach those in our own branches since we do not transfer like the Elders.
