Sister Jaggi with Jerniver at baptism. Sister Jaggi and Elder Jaggi at temple with Sis. Hermiz.

It is now the end of February and we have finally given thought to our blog. It was set up for the purpose of following our mission. Well, here is a little more scoop! We had a baptism of a great guy, Yaw, in January and a baptism of a sweet girl, Jerniver, just last week. This is what it is all about! We are so happy to see the glow in each of them as they embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Savior doesn't necessarily take our trials away; he just helps us carry them, and we grow stronger in the process. I will try to post pictures of those two in white, and also a couple pictures of things Elder Jaggi and Sister Jaggi have been doing.

I can't remember how I posted pictures when we opened a Blog, but I am going to try it now, since we finally got an adapter to hook up our camera so we could download them. The couple with us by the map, pointing to Toronto at the MTC, is the Barnes. They're our buddies and we get together occasionally. They really are sweet, fun people.

Some pictures of our apartment are the back door taken from our bedroom, with bathroom and stairway on the right. Next is stairway to living room and kitchen. Door on left is laundry, and door on right is furnace. There is an opening in the wall past the furnace room to living room. Next pictures are living room and kitchen. Our favorite pictures are Ina Powell, whom we have been helping teach, and her baptism. She is a jewel, and now the elders are teaching her grandson, Philip. Last picture are our dear elders with us. They are spiritual giants. We love them. They are planning on a white Christmas...white in baptism clothes, that is. We think a man named Chris will be baptized Dec. 28. I plan on being able to post his baptism picture next month.
