Feliz Cumpleaños America - Grateful For This Great Country! - Visitors' Center Tours - A Lot More People At Church



Happy 4th of July!! Well, 5th I guess ;) This is one of my favorite holidays! I love America so much! I feel so blessed to live in this country and to have all of the things I have. 


This week we took some recent converts in our ward to the VC and taught them about the temple. We told them about each room and the things we do there. We showed them all the temples in Mexico and they were so excited! After we showed them around they told us they were going to get their temple recommends (which they got yesterday woooo!!!). We are working on setting up an appointment for the 3 of them to do baptisms for the first time!! Yay!! 

We also had a lot more people at church this week! So that was awesome. Fast and testimony meeting was amazing! I love hearing everyone's testimonies. Short and sweet. It's awesome. I also love fasting. It definitely can be challenging at times but I love the opportunity to fast once a month. It's awesome to get to sacrifice just a little bit of my normal every day life to show my love for God. I hope you all had a great Fast Sunday :))

Just wanted to say that I'm grateful for this great country that was founded on freedom. I'm SO thankful to be blessed enough to live here. After listening to the talk given by Elder Oaks at the last conference I truly realize how much God truly did influence the constitution and this country in order to let the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ begin. That's probably the biggest reason I'm blessed to be here. A country founded on freedom. Thankful that I can practice my religion and do my best to spread as a missionary :)

Love you all!
