We were able to get our shopping and other tasks finished in the morning. The Orange zone did a outdoor
volleyball game so we stopped by and played a few rounds. We finished up dinner then went out to do a
little finding before the end of the night.
Tuesday The 4th of July US
Our day started out with a parade, about 100 missionaries carried flags. That was a few hours, it had to
be especially hot. When we got back and there was a BBQ we went to before we had to be in for the night.
Wednesday
Elder Sparto is still fighting off the virus he has, which is being passed around now. I have been fighting
it off now. So we got some rest to help fight it off. We had dinner with the Thatchers at Baja Tacos. The
night ended with us doing some visits to some members of the ward and sharing a message with them.
Thursday
Our discussion for district meeting was on receiving revelation through church attendance. We often don't
realize how important it is to attend church. A great way to receive answers is through our attendance.
After district meeting we went to a ward picnic at the park of one of the church buildings. We went out
to do some finding and met Charles, he wasn't able to meet so we setup an appointment with him.
Friday
In the morning we had a service, helping moved the Oakerlunds. They are moving to Utah so we packed
the whole house. The rest of our day was spent weekly planning. The plans for the next week are really
solid. The Davies took us to dinner. After dinner we saw Charles's father, he talked about how it would be
good for Charles to work on his faith. The remainder of the night was finding.
Saturday
In the morning we had a service helping out in another ward. We helped an elderly woman move some
boxes. When we were done we finished up our studies then went out to find. We usually heave to catch
everyone before they leave to do things on Saturday, but we were a little late. Dinner was with the Ward
family, they are fun. We tried to see a few people before our night ended.
Sunday
The morning started with ward council, which was good. Sacrament meeting was cool a couple came back
from their senior mission and they shared some of their great experiences from serving. After church we
tried to stop by a few people. The Hathaway family had us over for dinner. The night ended with a little
planning.
Daily Bread
We often don't recognize the effect of daily scripture study. In my observance of those that apply this
principle and don't, I have seen the great effects. The people that keep the routine of constant daily
scripture study and prayer have a better life. I'm not saying that it is necessarily easier, but they have the
strength to bear the things that they go through. It is able to bring a great peace to their lives and many
more blessings. We have to make sure that we receive that daily dose of the gospel. We are not only here
to worship on the Sabbath, but always.
