Faith Meets Families at the Houston Temple

Each month converts come to the temple and bring a family name (they learn to find family names with help from the missionaries and family history consultant)  to do baptisms, ward members bring them and missionaries also attend with the converts who are in their current ward.   One sister told us she felt the spirit more strongly when she did baptisms for the dead for her ancestor  then when she herself was baptized.  It is a wonderful experience to see husbands baptizing their wife and children who are doing these proxy baptisms.  We also receive a lot of help from our wonderful senior missionaries.
