HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Oh the joys of missionary work in the summer! Never again in my life
do I think I will be walking around all day, everyday in the burning
sun, and love every minute of it:) Summer is hitting us hard in New
York! Woohoo:) I hope you all have been surviving the heat, and loving
the 4th of July!

I loved our 4th of July, it was the best one I've had in my life! I
gained a deeper appreciation for our country as we taught the
Restoration to people on Monday. We watched the Restoration video with
one of our investigators and again with one of our recent converts,
and it was almost too perfect. What a better way to celebrate our
country than by teaching others the reason why? I am so grateful to
our Heavenly Father for allowing this country to be established, it
paved the way for the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ!:)
That's why we really celebrate!

We have been working a lot with less actives and we have seen so much
success! A couple miracles from the last week: We met with a less
active recent convert who recently had surgery and was also diagnosed
with a disease that causes vertigo so she is unable to come to church.
But we testified of the importance of the Sacrament and she said she
really did want to come back to church and we promised her that she
would be blessed as she tried her hardest to come to church- and she
actually did!! MIRACLE! Also, we set up an appointment with a less
active that neither of us had met, and neither of us knew how amazing
she was! She hasn't been to church in about a year, but she told us
that she reads her scriptures often and has watched General a
Conference when it is on! It really helped me to see that Heavenly
Father never forgets or loses track of any of His children. We are not
alone in this work, He is always preparing hearts:)

We really did have a good week this week and I am so looking forward
to another week in New York!:)

Love you all!

Love, Sister JonesπŸ€“
