RIVERS BAPTISM AND CONFIRMATION


River has gotten baptised!!! Yesterday February 23, his grandpa baptised him and today February 24, he confirmed him in Sacrament meeting. River was taught the lessons by Elder Laughlin from North Carolina and Elder Arrowsmith from Mesa Arizona. River has been taking the Missionary discussions for more than a month and accepted to be Baptised. During the each lesson River sat as patiently as he could and listened to the lessons while cracking jokes to keep the mood light. River was very excited to have sooo much attention and to be dunked in the water.


At Rivers baptism, Cassie gave the opening prayer, Sebastian gave an excellent talk on Baptism, Spence also gave an excellent talk on the Holy Ghost, Nichole gave the closing prayer, and Grandma Sher led the music. We were delighted to have so many of the ward members come and support River, they have been really great to us during this process. River and I would like to thank everyone for coming and sharing this special experience with us, it was amazing for both River and I.
