In October Eric was happy to baptize a sweet young boy named Kinglove and a young man named Rieuo Rieuo. It was well attended, and nine investigators came to his baptism. It was a wonderful opportunity to share the gospel with others. Eric is serving with Elder Eyre as a Zone Leader in Dedeo*.
Eric writes that he "has come to love, and treasure, the scriptures. I love learning the stories, and the history that they contain. I love just having that deeper understanding, and the [revelation] that I receive as I search." He gave this advice to the young and women preparing for a mission in his home ward: "READ Preach My Gospel, and enjoy the scriptures. Make it a time desirable above all else. It is the time when you get the Spirit and escape the world. It's great."
