It was so beatuiful to see him dressed in white with his gorgeous family. His wife Nataly has been a member since she was 12, but has been inactive for years. It is amazing to see the difference in the both of them since Janson made the decision to be baptized. The Sunday after he recieved the Gift of the Holy Ghost. I could tell he was nervous to be in front of all the ward members, but the blessing given by the bishop gave me was beautiful. Right before we sang the sacrament hymn, I looked over at Janson and his family, he had the biggest smile on his face and gave me a thumbs up. Suddenly the strongest emotion came over me and I couldnt help the tears that filled my eyes. Something special touched my heart and I knew that the Holy Ghost was tesifying to me that Heavenly Father is pleased with what I am doing.
Nataly and Janson have now set the goal to go to the temple in a year to be sealed for time and all eternity. I feel so very humbled to be a part of this marvillous work, and am blessed to witness miracles every day. D&C 18:10-16 is starting to have a new and very significant meaning to me.
Hermana Wallis and I have the privelage of spending our Christmas Eve with Janson and his adorable family!! I can already tell that this week will be very special. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and remember our Savior: his birth, sacrifice, and love for us all. !Feliz Navidad!
Con mucho amor,
Hermana Parkin
