We attended Ricardo's baptism on Saturday. We are so proud of him and were so thankful to be able to join the Arandas group family with Elder Christensen and Elder Jones to witness this sacred event.
What a wonderful evening. Ricardo is 24. He and Viviana Salas have been dating for many years. It was Viviana who introduced him to the church. He has been an earnest investigator for quite some time. He has read the Book of Mormon and is attending church regularly. This important decision, making his first covenant with his Heavenly Father has been well thought out and confirmed to him through the spirit of the Holy Ghost. What a day!
