Connie Mays Baptism

We have been working with Connie Mays for 14 month- with several sets of missionaries. I have seen her grow in the gospel light. She had fears . Her family rejecting her called her the Black Mormon. Then in August Pres and Sister Grayson(MP) went to visit her. They are black also and knew exactly how she was feeling. Testified to her. This was Connie turning point.

She set the date. Sept 24, 2016

At the Macon Ga stake center,

John Bridges baptized her , and Elder Alex Anderson confirmed her. 

I just want to say as we started the baptism this wonderful feeling of peace came over the room. When I got up to give a talk about the gift of the Holy Ghost. I could hardly speak- I felt The ancestors of Connie Past present and future. She is the pioneer- to open the gates of the gospel to her family . 

It was over helming.great mission experience
