The Baptism Of Richard Torrez

In December, Brother and Sister Cook went to Japan to pick up their son, Elder Ben Cook at the end of his mission; and also to tour Japan, with Elder Cook as their guide/translator. (Photos courtesy of Tana Cook)  (Click on any photo to view larger)

One of the highlights of their trip was getting to witness Elder Cook baptize Richard Torrez, whom Elder Cook had taught the gospel.

The Baptism took place in a facility on the military base, which is shared by many different religions.  Sister Cook said that the font was the tiniest she had ever seen, but Elder Cook managed to get the job done on the first try.
