Surrounded by a large gathering of grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and ward members, Melissa Mae Larson, the second of Aaron and Rebecca Larson's five children, was baptized by her father on Saturday, August 28 and confirmed by her grandpa Larrance Larson. Along with her cousin Nicole Lewis (the daughter of Rebecca’s sister), with whom she shared this sacred experience, Melissa stepped through the “narrow gate and onto the strait path” to become the newest member of the Bloomington 7th Ward. The third grader at Bloomington Elementary School, who reached the age of accountability in mid-August, has learned at home and in Primary about the importance of her baptism by immersion as a representation of the burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The ordinance also serves as a reminder to Melissa and Nicole of their promise to follow the Savior and keep His commandments.
