Baptism

Joseph asked me to baptize him after the missionary working with him was transferred. 





First picture is Joseph and I, next is Joseph and his family with me by his side, next is the whole group that was at Joseph's baptism and last is of course is me baptizing Joseph.  It was a very special time.








Joseph is a teacher at his own collage and loves to give scholarships. After our group meeting in Nakuru I went up to one of our members, Tony, and asked what priesthood he held.  He said he didn't hold any priesthood because he couldn't read. I said lets go talk to sister Dalley and see if she would teach you how to read.  As we were trying to find Sister Dalley I caught Joseph out of the corner of my eye and the impression came to me to see if he would give Tony a scholarship and put him on a scheduled to learn to read and at the same time help him train for a better career. So I took Tony over to introduce him to Joseph and asked Joseph if it were possible to give Tony a scholarship that he might learn to read.  Well Joseph got really excited and said he would and they exchanged information and now Tony is on his way to learning how to read and in a couple of months Tony will be given the priesthood.
