New Missionaries

On November 15th, we welcomed two new missionaries to Dominica. They are Elder Bishesar from Suriname which is part of the Caribbean, and Elder Peterson who is from Utah. That will put two tall blonde blue eyed Elders walking around Roseau. Elder Bishesar's family joined the church when he was five. His parents have a Hindu background on one of his parent's side and Muslim on the other. He is a great addition and speaks, Dutch, English and Spanish.

New Baptisms

On Saturday, November 28th Charlotin Saint Louis and Jhonson Gervais were baptized. Elder Bruner confirmed Jhonson on Sunday. They are from Haiti and speak French but the common language here between them and the missionaries has been Spanish. They are students in Sister Bruner's English Class. They are wonderful young men.

This is the wonderful group of senior missionaries that we serve with in our zone. They are Ben and Sally Blackham, Anita and Cliff Norman and Elder and Sister Murdock.
We meet together every 6 weeks for Zone Conference. They are a great support and have become good friends.

Baptism!

On September 12, 2009 Chet had the privilege of baptizing Anastasia Lyna Thomas into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She is a lovely young woman who who we have enjoyed knowing as she studied and learned about the gospel.
