Baptism

Its been another amazing week in Oakville!!!

Margaret got BAPTIZED!!!!!!! It was a really great service and everything. We did it right after church so that more people would be there. It was funny, when she was in the water, Elder Westfall asked if she was ready, and in a way that is very much like Margaret she said "No," but we went a head and did it. She is taking us out to dinner this week and so she called this morning to figure out some details and she sounded great over the phone and was so glad that she finally did it. Then next week I'll confirm her and give her the gift of the Holy Ghost. I haven't done that yet so it'll be a good experience for all of us. We also went over to Pres. and Sis. Bankheads last night. We still had some of their things so we were just going to make a quick stop before heading home. Well, an hour and a half later we finally left. We talked a lot and had a lot of fun. It was great living with them, but we're having just as good of time over at our new place (well...its not really new for me...).

Mom-Yeah, we use the front door all the time. It's how we get in and out so we'll get it if its there. That's too bad to hear about Sis. Glem. She was a great, but I guess her talents are needed else where. The storms have finally passed here. We have been back up above freezing for a couple of days now. It feels great!

Dad-We'll probably be calling between breakfast and lunch, not positive though. We woke up Sunday morning excited for the baptism and I looked out the window and there were a few snow flakes coming down, but unlike Josh, I was not excited. If it had snowed Margaret wouldn't have come out.
Wow, it seems like everyone is getting home, its crazy to think about it. I was wondering: does the Atonement cover the suffering of those that rebelled in the pre-mortal life? The scriptures say that He suffered for all, but doesn't say too much else about it.

Anyway, have a great week and I'll talk to you in a few days,
Love,
Elder Egan
