Joshua Nelson, grandson of Z George Nelson, is presently serving as a full-time missionary for the Church in St. Brieuc, France. On April 14th he wrote:
  ...we had  the opportunity to go to the church and have a baptism for Vanina. I was blessed with the opportunity to be the one who baptized her and after a little forgetfulness at the beginning of her names (she has 5 names) and the words I was able to remember and accomplish the ordinance. It was a great time filled with joy, tears and the spirit.


[On] Sunday, …we had the opportunity to teach Vanina during Sunday school and then be a part of the circle as Elder Hall confirmed her a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and pronounce a blessing. It was a moment of joy, hope and we felt the love of our Heavenly Father as we laid our hands on her head. After the sacrament we had the wonderful opportunity to bare testimony as it was our fast and testimony meeting. I bore my testimony and was edified and uplifted as I heard members and friends bare their solemn and sacred testimony of the divinity of our Lord and Savior and His church here on this earth.
