This is Damião. He is 82 year old. He was baptized last Sunday.  When he was in the baptismal font, he was quite emotional and he put his hands overs his eyes, and we waited a few minutes while he composed himself.  He has a wonderful smile.  This Sunday, today,  he was confirmed a member of Church  of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and given the gift of the Holy Ghost. 

 

When the Bishop was praying, Damião put his hands in front of him with the palms up to accept the gift. There were tears in his eyes when he left the stand.  Someone took his arm and brought him up and took him back to his seat.  It's never too late to change your life for the better. He has a great support system now to help him in any way.
