Baptism of Rajesh Gurbaxani

Saturday was a big day. Terri had visitors in her seminary class: Elder and Sister Avonadet from Guyana came to see how the Branch’s Seminary and Institute classes were going, and attended Terri’s seminary class at noon on Saturday. They were called as CES missionaries but were changed as they needed a Branch President on the island! It was the next to the last class for the year, and Terri was reviewing the whole plan of salvation with JP, her only student. We had pizza for lunch with our guests, and played a game to ‘remember’ all the ideas and concepts involved in the Plan of Salvation–from the pre-mortal life to the Kingdoms of Glory.

Raj and Brother Telga– who used to be Elder Telga and who taught Raj the gospel and converted him about 2 1/2 years ago. Raj has waited to get baptized, even though he has been a believer for a long time. Both Raj and the Branch were excited the time finally arrived for him to make it official!
