Kind of awesome the 4th of July landed on a P-day. It
actually feels like it's a holiday today. So grateful that we have this country
to worship as we please.
It has been a really good week! We were able to meet with
Sarah Petty and she read alma 32! She really enjoyed alma 32:21 and she seemed
to understand it pretty well! She was going to come to church but she woke up
feeling sick unfortunately. But she texted us later that day and asked for more
chapters to read from the Book of Mormon! She is really enjoying what we are
leaving with her to read. Hopefully she will be able to make it to church next
week!
We Got a new Ward mission leader! His name is brother
Smith and he just moved in from the neighboring stake. He has a family of 7
kids and they are pretty awesome. He has never served as a ward mission leader
but he is excited and said that he was going to go study up!
Haha we are excited to start working with him.
On Saturday night we got a call from Bishop and he said that
there was a family headed to the west coast from northern Alabama. The father
in this family was feeling really sick and so he located the nearest bishop and
asked for a priesthood blessing. He called our bishop and he asked us to head
over and give a priesthood blessing! We were excited to exercise our
priesthood. We got to the hotel they stopped in and we gave the blessing and
left. The man was not looking good and was talking quietly. He told us he had a
fever of 104 and had aches and cold sweats the whole day. The next day was fast
and testimony meeting. The man stood up and bore a sincere testimony of the
power of the priesthood. He felt completely better and there were no remnants
of his sickness from the day before. Small and simple miracles are the most
precious. They help us build our faith in the Savior Jesus Christ and his
atonement. The Savior's authority is on the earth today. Thomas S. Monson holds
the same keys that Peter was given anciently by Christ. I invite each of you to
gain a further testimony of the prophet Thomas S. Monson who leads and guides
this church under the direction of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is important to
know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God but is equally important to
gain a testimony of the current prophet Thomas S. Monson
I love you guys!
