Jorah Vaughn Morris, 8-year-old son of Robert Craig (“RC”)
and Julare Morris, stepped into the waters of baptism at the Bloomington Stake
Center on Saturday, February 21 to take his place among the members of the B7
Ward and the full membership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints.
Grandpa Morris bore testimony of the importance of this day reminding Jorah of the two reasons why we are baptized: because it is a requirement to be able to return to live forever with our Heavenly Father and because it is the way in which we receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Sister Julare Morris taught her son - and those in attendance at the baptismal service - of the importance of the
Holy Ghost, reminding him the Holy Ghost is the 3rd member of the
Godhead, but he is also a guide, comforter, testifier, leaves impressions in
our heart and mind and “will help you choose the right throughout your
lifetime.”
Spiritually well-prepared by his parents and dedicated Primary teachers for this important day in his life, Jorah also had his father's hands laid upon his head to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost by those who hold the power and authority of the Melchizedek priesthood.

Congratulations, Jorah ... for setting an example for your younger brother and little sister and on your decision to follow the Savior's example.
