First Baptism of the year

Saturday we had our first baptism for the year: Alberto Chekino Austin Romney (we all call him Keno).

Earlier in the day the Primary children had an activity: making valentines in preparation for Valentines Day!

Here are some pictures of those attending the baptism. We had quite a few investigators who came–some of whom are preparing for their own baptismal date!

It was a great service. After the service the Branch Leadership held a meeting in which they went over the goals they have for the branch: missionary goals (how many baptisms, etc.), and goals for reactivation and temple attendance, etc. It should be a great year!
