Elder Jake Moss: Merry Christmas & Jefferson Got Baptized!

It was so awesome to see everyone on Christmas day! Thank you for all the love and support you've shown me. I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We had a good Christmas and I can't believe that it's my last one in Peru!

We had a really cool experience baptizing Jefferson on Christmas Eve! He is such an awesome kid and I know he's going to be such a strong member of the church. His older brother Jordy baptized him. But what was cool about this experience it that Jordy, who was baptized not too long ago, got to use the Aaronic priesthood to baptize and bless his little brother's life. They were both so happy! You could feel how strong the spirit was. Jefferson bore his testimony afterwards and said that "He would always keep the commandments!" Such a great experience to be apart of.

The other investigators we are teaching are doing good. Dari just needs a little more help and Juan is almost there. We continue to look for new contacts daily. We know that there are people to find.

Reflection of the week: With President Silva's challenge to contact at least 20 people a day you would think that it would get really easy to go up to any person and start a conversation about the gospel. And you would think that the fear wouldn't be there. But I believe that the adversary is always working on us and can make it tough. You have to be brave and choose faith over fear. I love you all so much! Tell Sarah Happy Birthday on the 28th! I love you Sarah! #doitforjesus

Love,

Elder Moss
