Sister Hoggard's First Baptism!

Hello everyone!
Greetings from Cochran, Georgia! Home of Middle Georgia College, where the graduating class is eight rednecks, two farmers and a cow! Just kidding!
So we have a baptism scheduled for tomorrow! Her name is Emily Stiles and she is freaking awesome!!!! She is fifteen years old and has the sweetest testimony ever! Her parents are members but have been inactive for about ten years. So now their daughter is getting baptized and she plans to reactivate her parents. YAY!
It has been super cold this week, so we haven't been able to tract, due to the fact that the mission doctor forbid us to tract since Sister Hatfield has been sick. But it's still been a good week.
Zone conference was post poned this week though, which was a good and bad thing. Good, cuz I didn't have to get up so blasted early, but bad cuz I was looking forward to meeting other missionaries. Boo!
The church is true! I see evidence of it everywhere! God lives and He loves us! He knows us by name and knows what we are going through. Jesus Christ truly is our Savior and Redeemer. He knows us individually and knows what we are going through as well. For a few moments in the Garden of Gethsemane, he was thinking of us. How many drops of blood were spilt for us? When he says "lovest thou me?" How are we going to answer?
