"This has been such a great day!"
Rachel asked Daniel to baptise her, which was such a privilege for him and such a tender moment for me to watch. He has such a pure love for the gospel of Jesus Christ, it means everything to him, which means everything to me.
Rachel was so ready for the waters of baptism. Her countenance was radiating and with every tear that ran down her cheek that day you could feel her knowledge that she is truly a daughter of God become so evident.
Her testimony is so strong. She knows the Book of Mormon is true. She knows the Joseph Smith was a true prophet who saw God the Father and Jesus Christ. She knows that we have a Prophet and Apostles on the earth today that teach us the things that we need to know. The best part about this is she came to the knowledge of these things on her own, with the love and support of her husband and friends.
She will be an amazing member of the Church and I know she will influence many with her special spirit. The things she has been through in her life will make her stronger as she comes to understand that Heavenly Father is aware of her and her struggles and that we have trials in this life to build our character to become the people that He wants us to become so that we can live with Him again someday.
Congratulations Rachel!
We love you and we are so proud of you!
