Cousin Lunch

Hey guys!!

My cousin Kenzie and her fam took us out to lunch this week so that was so fun seeing them! They live in another town in Kansas and they drove 45 minutes to take my comp and I to get Mexican food and it was so yum! (Look at the cute photo below) Also my mom sent me a cute package with 4th of July stuff so that's the photo of us with cool glasses:) 

We had exchanges this week, which is basically when you switch companions for a day. I went to Olathe with Sister Jones and it was so fun! We had a phone call lesson in the evening with this guy named Shaun, who clicked on one of our Facebook ads saying we help people come closer to God. He said he took it as a sign that this is Christ's true church because he keeps being led back to this church. He's been through a lot and said the only reason he's happy now is because of God's hand in his life. He had a really amazing story of his conversion to Jesus Christ. We talked to him for an hour about baptism and how we truly believe this is Christ's true church restored on the earth today. The Sister missionaries in Olathe are going to keep teaching him, but he already has a baptismal date set! 

This was definitely a rare scenario that we put him on a baptismal date on the first lesson but he's been in contact with missionaries previously and had friends who were members. It just goes to show how everyone's journey is different. Even though it's crazy that we invited him to be baptized the first lesson, we felt the Spirit so strongly so we just had to follow that prompting:)

Also I just love going up to strangers and asking if we can share an uplifting message with them! It's so fun because we can just testify of how the gospel has brought us so much joy and blessed our lives! It was definitely hard at first but it's gotten a lot easier because I just realized I've gotta be myself and listen to the Spirit! Not gonna lie we've met some people who are not so nice this week but we've also met some amazing people this week! Overall, I love them all and I just love sharing this message with everyone!

Love and miss you all!
