HOWDY YALLL! I'm just gonna start by saying I'm SO STOKED FOR THE 4TH!!!!! ahhh the 4th is my favorite holiday ever, being in a military area makes it that much better!

MONDAY: PDAYYYY! We played pickleball in the 100° weather, it was super fun! Then we visited a part member family, some other ppl on our 6 list and they were sooo cool and open !

TUESDAY: TRAVELING & PLANNING

Nothing crazy happened Tuesday we just got some much needed weekly planning done lol, then made the fat car ride down to Bentonville.

WEDNESDAY- THURSDAY: OPEN HOUSE!!!! There were so many miracles but one huge one was our recent converts Jack and Lilly, their family made the trek to come to the open house😆 it was so tender because we got to explain everything to them, they made the coolest and most profound comments the whole time! Seeing them in the sealing room made my heart so happy🥰😊 In the last room we were in the mom had the kids close their eyes and she asked them how they felt and all the kids said they felt the spirit strong. Jack said he felt it as soon as he walked in the building and made a comment about how the celestial room was how heaven was going to be like but a lot bigger cause we'll all be there🥲🥹 amen Jack amen

FRIDAY: ROAD TRIPPIN + SWEAT DRIPPIN🥵🛴 we made the trek back from Bentonville. It was unreasonably hot that day, we came home to our ac not working to we were dying lol!

SATURDAY: FINDING JOY EVEN IN THE REJECTION 🫠

Wow we had a full day of just being treated like crap and being bashed, having to drop everyone we're teaching. But somehow we still had a fun day haha. I've learned joy and our ability to find it in the work is all about our perspective. I've learned to take notes on the lessons God's teaching me rather than be butt hurt because I'm having a hard day or ppl aren't listening

SUNDAY: PAGAN'S BAPTISM!!!!

Sunday was a breath of fresh air after Saturday lol! We had super good lessons on post after the baptism! And had the best church services ever in both wards! I'm telling ya the military wards go all out for the 4th, I'm all here for it! The spirit was so strong especially in testimony meeting hearing the connection with the restoration and the 4th!! Merica and Jesus what more could you want 🇺🇸🙏

Invitation:

- talking about the restoration and the 4th is such a solid and easy way to bring up the gospel! Ur Invitation this week is to use the fourth of July to bring up the restored gospel!

Flood the earth🇺🇸🙏🫶
