A special baptism was held Sept. 14 for Rodneisha (Neisha) Jackson who has been taught by our three sister missionaries. Neisha was first taught the gospel by missionaries two years ago here in Lodi. When the sister missionaries met her she was definitely ready to be taught more. They have been teaching her for five months. She was baptized by Trent Simmons, who with his wife were ward missionaries, and brought Neisha to church every Sunday. Brother Chris Boyer confirmed her a member of the church.
Neisha's mother was there, as well as her four year old daughter, Ryin, and an older son, Synceres. The sister missionaries together gave a delightful story about Jesus and His baptism, how He received the Holy Ghost, and how Neisha can live a life centered on Jesus Christ. Bishop Adam Sroufe welcomed her into the ward, and Kari Fairbanks welcomed her into Relief Society. Bishop Sroufe said "It was a wonderful spiritual experience to witness!" We welcome Neisha and Ryin into the ward.
