It’s raining in Laredo! This is the first rain we have seen here in months, and everything was looking burned up. Seminary is so great—we hated to leave them for even one day as we flew home for the weekend in Utah. It was a wonderful weekend, celebrating Emma’s baptism with Brady’s cute little family. At the same time Steven’s family had the sacred experience of celebrating Kelsey and Robbie’s sealing in the San Diego Temple. We were disappointed that we could not be in both places, loving on both granddaughters, but it was a special day. We are so grateful that we are able to leave the mission in order to be present at such life-changing events. We love our family! It was also wonderful to attend sacrament/testimony meeting and touch bases with our many friends in our home ward.
We love teaching the New Testament and becoming closer to our Savior, Jesus Christ. We love Him and are grateful to serve him. One of the sweet fruits was to watch our YSAs support and love each other on social media. One young adult was having a very hard time and reached out in her struggle. The men were especially supportive to her—bearing testimony, reassuring her that she is loved, and lighting her way with messages of encouragement and caring. It was truly ministering to someone in need.
We love every day of our service. We have many, many blessings—including you. Thanks for your prayers. Eight more months!
