July 8th Letter


Happy 4th of July Hyrum!!!!!!!!!!!!! How was it? Man it was crazy here in Texas!!! It was amazing.

This week was a fun week. It was an up week compared to last week which was good. So here are the awesome things that happen this week

Lately whenever we walk out of the apartment Miracles start happen it is amazing. So on Tuesday our dinner appointment cancelled on us in the morning so we needed to find someone to feed us! So we texted our Recent Convert Shawn Beard to save us. Well at lunch time I was craving Chinese food really bad so we walked down the street to get some and right when we started walking we got a text from Shawn saying that he wants to us to come over tonight and teach his daughter Morgan! She wants to be BAPTIZED!!!! I wanted to just drop to the ground I was so happy!!! So that night we went over there and we taught her the restoration lesson. It went well but we are starting from ground zero. She has no knowledge of God or anything so we have to teach so clearly and simply. It’s really good practice for us!! But we got a new investigator!!!!

Wednesday was an awesome day, so we have this potential couple that we have tried for months and months to get a hold of and just try to get an appointment that they won’t cancel on. We went Tuesday and we knocked on their door and the wife comes out and she was sarcastic when she said good timing guys? I’m like sorry want us to leave? She said that she got out of the shower and she cut her self on the forehead. I was like I’m sorry we will come by tomorrow. She said yea and maybe you could catch my husband. The next day we went over and we knocked the door twice and he didn’t answer. So we went to the park for a min and came back and we knocked on it for the third time. And he finally answered!!  He comes out and telling us all these problems he is having. I felt like I needed to give him a Book of Mormon and testify to him that if you read this it will help you out right now and it will answer questions of the soul. He said thanks and we went our ways. Well after dinner that night he asked us where he should start reading!!! I was shocked that he wanted to read so badly and he said that we need to meet up with him ASAP. So again we had a hard time getting a hold of him. But he told us that he wants to meet with us on Wednesday so I am excited!!

 

4TH OF JULY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TEXAS EDITION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was such a good 4th of July I went out with a bang haha.

The day started with the Ward breakfast at 9am in the morning!! It was good had a lot of pancakes. After the Ward breakfast we went to a less actives house. I had a prompting to go over to his house so we did and he was happy we were there. We talked about his 4th of July in his mission and how he loved it. Before we left he wanted us to try Quail Egg's IT WAS SO AMAZING!!! Really Good. Then we went to Shawn Beard's house to share a message with him, then we went to the Atoigue's they were preparing there BBQ for that night. We just chilled with them and we went to our dinner at 6pm. We had a huge T-bone steak and Pie for dessert. It was so amazing!! Than we went back to the Atoigue's to watch them light fireworks. Oh man was that fun they had a lot of little fireworks so we had fun with them. I try to send you videos but it was so amazing. I was having so much. But I couldn’t help to think of all the fun yall had at home this year :)

 

Other than that there wasn’t anything to much else that happened. This week was just a normal week but it was amazing cause I had my LAST 4TH of JULY!!!

 

I hope all is well with each and every single one of yall. I want to let you know I love you and I think, and pray about yall all the time. Thank you for all the love and support you have given for me.

 

Love
