Happy 4th of JULY!!!!!!!
We have been doing a ton of service this week! It seems that everyone and their dog is moving this week. We have helped about 5 different families move, so that has been nice! One of the families that we have helped move has family in Utah who are members but this family we helped were not members. We finished moving them in on Saturday and asked if we could come back to share a message with them about Jesus Christ and they gladly accepted! We will be returning to teach Kate on Tuesday so we are excited about that. :)
Other than that we have been teaching less actives and have been trying to find through them, but no success in that area yet.
This week I have also been studying a lot about Joseph Smith and his trials that he went through. One of my favorite phrases that describes the kind of man that he was is found in the Doctrine and Covenants section 135 verse 3: 3 "Joseph Smith, the Prophet and Seer of the Lord, has done more, save Jesus only, for the salvation of men in this world, than any other man that ever lived in it..." It is truly a blessing to have the Liberty Jail in our mission and to be able to experience and see what he did has really been a strengthening point to my testimony.
Thanks for all the support and love!
Love,
Elder Shoemaker
