What Does It Take To Fill A Font?

Fun fact of the week: police officers here wear bright green coats (idk if they do that in the states but I've only ever seen it on British TV shows before now haha).

So we had  baptism this week! It went as perfectly as a baptism could have gone, minus the preparation the night before...
All of Friday morning we had OTC meetings, so we didnt get back to our area until 4, which gave us very little time to visit all the members we needed to make the baptism happen. We finally got around to all the members we needed to see, did one last check up with the family getting baptized, then drove to the church to set up. When we got to the church, there were heaps of cars in the parking lot, so we bounced and grabbed Maccas because what other way is there than to drown your stress in McDonalds? (That's purely hypothetical, please do not answer) we at this moment, received a text from our bishop that the two boys didn't have white pants for tomorrow! So us being baby missionaries and not knowing what to do, started calling everyone we know to see if anyone had white pants. Our wonderful Zone Leaders told us there would most likely be some somewhere by the Relief Society room, so we decided to just brave the crowd and head back. we started driving towards the chapel, when a police car stopped us in the middle of the road. It was just a breathalyzer test, so we should be all goods, except for the fact that Fonua has never done a breathalyzer test before, so when they asked her to count to 5 she breathed very strongly into the machine. The police officer gave her a curious look and said no, he wanted her to count to five. So she looked him dead in the eyes and said "five!". He told her that will do and let us go (he probably made a note that she wasn't intoxicated, just crazy). We finally made it to the chapel and discovered why there were so many cars... it was a youth dance! We awkwardly walked in and started cleaningand filling the font. A few of the chaperones came in to see what we were up to, and even enocouraged us to join the dance (tsk tsk!) Needless to say we barely made it back to our flat by 9:30 Haha. But we had a beautiful baptism on Saturday morning, and the spirit was incredibly strong So long story short: what does it take to fill a font? Helpful members, a stress run to Maccas, a surprise breathalyzer test, a very loud youth dance, two confused sister missionaries, and many many prayers answered.

I know this church is true and I'm so grateful for the gospel in my life :) I know it sounds cheesy, but I really dont know where I'd be without Christ and his Atoning sacrifice in my life. I hope if any of you feel like you may be lacking faith, you can find the courage to pray and ask for guidance because I can guarantee, Heavenly Father will show you the way. Ofa Atu!
Much love,
