cw: mention of r*pe, inc*st, discussion of abortion

In line with this week’s focus on an investigator preparing for her baptism, today I’ll talk about one of the requirements for baptism into the LDS Church: the Baptismal Worthiness Interview. Since my investigator was a woman, I’ll focus in on the interview’s focus of female sexual purity.

This week’s journal entries include actually written-out doubt about the inspiration to do missionary work in Ellendale, getting amped up by how cool a middle-aged member is since he wears a CTR ring, and the surprisingly anti-climactic first-ever-in-my-mission baptism.
