Sunflower Fields

Hola!

I got to go back to my roots once again – good old Lamar! On our way there, I saw my first legit sunflower field – gorgeous! So, of course, we had to stop and take plenty of pictures. Lamar is growing so much! The Hicks just reached their year mark but they are living in Arizona now. So, they will soon be going to the temple to be sealed and I’m so happy for them!

We had a church tour with Katie (mom of a member). She has a lot of questions and concerns but it was the most amazing experience to stand in front of the baptismal font and let the Spirit work. She questioned about children and their innocence and how it played a part in God’s plan. Thank you to The Book of Mormon! We were able to share scriptures with her in regards to children and their innocence and testify that God does have a perfect plan and everyone will have the chance to accept the gospel whether in this life or in the next. The answer of that one question worked for her and opened her eyes to more of God’s glory.

Last night, we had the BEST FHE with the Soriano family. The Elders came with us and we did a live “Iron Rod” activity. We led them through their backyard with eight of the nine kids and their parents (baby was too little) and then we sang families can be together forever! They were all very touched by it – but more importantly – they learned a lifelong principle. Ashley and Brenda’s baptism is this Sunday. They have already started handing out their invitations and telling everyone! We are so excited for them.
