Dotty is the Ward's Newest Member



Dorothy Catherine Adams - better known to family and friends as Dotty - was baptized (and confirmed) by her father Roy Adams on Sunday, July 28 to become the newest member of the Bloomington 7th Ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  

The youngest child of Roy and Michaela and granddaughter of B3 Ward members Chauncey and Margaret Adams, is "a fun kid" according to her dad, "who loves to joke around with her brother Chauncey and sisters Ivie and Phoebe.  She also loves animals - especially cats - reading and drawing and is looking forward to being in the 3rd grade at the duel-immersion Bloomington Elementary School where she is learning Chinese.

Through baptism, Dotty is now in "this strait and narrow path which leads to eternal life” (2 Ne. 31:17–18).

This is the promise we are given when we come into His kingdom through baptism and when hands are laid upon our heads, the gift of the Holy Ghost is bestowed upon us, and we were confirmed members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—which means we became “fellow citizens with the saints” in the “household of God” (see Eph. 2:19).

As members of the Church - and the B7 Ward - it is our responsibility to help Dotty continue to strengthen and grow her testimony.
