I wanted to share a portion of our son Landon's letter from this past week. He has been out just over a year serving in the Mexico, Mexico City North Mission.

Yesterday (March 2nd) was one of the most special days of my entire mission. We had the privilege of baptizing 6 people. We baptized the Garcia family (Luisa, Nelson, Alma, and Neiry) and Betty with her daughter Dennise. Juan (the dad of the Garcia´s) didn´t get baptized for some word of wisdom problems but we are going to keep working with him. What made yesterday even more special was the fact that it was the same day that I got baptized on. March 2, 2002. Little did I know that exactly 12 years later I would be back in the baptismal font, only this time I would be the one performing the ordinance for others. The spirit was so strong as one after another were baptized and came up with a huge smile, something that I will never forget.
