It's been a week that's all I can say lol. Started off with some deep cleaning of the crib! Mom would be proud because it's looks squeaky clean!! "No creature was stirring not even a mouse"ππ± Met up with the district and I dominated some Spike ball. Utah ain't ready when I get back!! πͺπ

Bro Shaffer zoom callzzz Cottonwood Creek Colorado July 2024 |
Let me update y'all on the teaching pool recently! πββοΈ it's been very interesting!
Lionel is a friend that comes every Sunday. We taught him once and that was about a month ago! Also he's engaged to a member in our ward but she told him that he has to be a priesthood bearer to marry her. And the man was like "ok done where do I sign up?!?!." We have been hassling him for weeks to let us come over and share the gospel. Last Sunday we had a linger longer and he comes up to us in front of his now fiance and says "When are y'all coming over to talk?" π§ uhhhhhh.... ummm we have been trying to forever now. We finally set something up, and bam we called him and he canceledπ€¦ββοΈ
The next day me and Sis Arnold are walking up to the church for District Council and we see a cig π¬ in the parking lot, knowing it's Lionel's famous signature every time time he leaves somewhere. But come on man, not at the church π€¦ββοΈπ
Next, Sister Rojas, and no she's not a member but everyone thinks she is already, so everyone calls her Sister Rojas!π«
Her husband is a member and they both come every week to church, and we meet with her every week to teach her. Every time we bring up baptism she's like "no"!π
ββοΈ I know what y'all are thinking, "Literally everyone thinks she's a member so why doesn't she just become one" Well get in line, cause I would like to know too π€¦ββοΈ

HALLELUJAH!! ππ We have been praying to find more people to teach since our two most progressing aren't really progressing, they just go to church every week π€π
This area gets a lot of media referrals but PSYCH cause they are all pranks people do on each other! Like who would of thought "Oh I'ma be funny so I'ma sign my friend up to meet with them "mormon"missionaries"π Oh hahah that's so funny. I'm laughing so hard. π I hope y'all can catch my sarcasm in this! But we got a referral and it's real! π He texted us back and was like "yes I would love to meet". So me and Sis Arnold are pumped for thatπ€π±
It's been raining cats and dogs out here in good ol' Colorado!βοΈ We had dinner plans for Wednesday and last minute the members canceled cause of the rain. So they ordered us pizza!! π We waited, she said it would be like 20 minutes and then it never showed up during our designated dinner time. So we had to go to work and hopefully no one takes the pizza that will sit outside our door. We'll we pulled up and it never came! This pizza is now like 5 days late!! Y'all already know I was peevedπ but God saw my diligence, cause we were on exchanges on Saturday and me and Sister Wilkins were just talking about how bad we wanted Panda πΌπ₯‘ ,and Miracles cause the members ended up canceling and delivered food to us! AND guess what it was.... PANDA me and sister Wilkins were in utter disbelief!π±π We were so grateful we ate it up ππ€€

Eagle Point companionship back at it again Cottonwood Creek Colorado July 2024 |
On a real, it was Saturday, and I was eating Panda you know the usual...so fire!! Now that I'm writing about Panda, I really want some lol! But anyways we were eating and I get a call from the second counselor in the ward, Bro. Brock! And he asked me to give a talk tomorrow! Which usually I'd be freaking out, but idk the pulpit has been calling me lately. It wanted the Sister Kimball to speak!! π€π It was a sisters homecoming talk and they wanted me to speak about missionary work and the atonement. (Oh the college kids are home for summer with their fams so the pews were packed but that's did not psych me out.) I gave a talk about yes, missionary work. It is hard, but through the atonement it's light work..... blah blah.... "salvation is not a cheap experience." Just speaking facts, and banging my fists on the pulpit. After the talk I saw the college kids, and me and my comp attacked them to join us for lessons, since they are all returned missionaries and they couldn't say no!! So fellowship queens!! ππ

My tag π that the member found!! Cottonwood Cree, Colorado July 2024 |
Also another miracle. When it was raining me and sister Wilkins had to run to the car and I guess my tag fell off. I didn't notice until after we left. So the next day at church I was joking with the member "Hey look out for Sister Kimball tag somewhere in your apartment complex." She then was texting us the whole Sunday being like, "I can't find it ", and I was like "oh no I was joking no worries!" She then calls me in the morning and she's like "Sister Kimball I found your tag, someone put it up on the side of the mail box." Literally blessings from above y'all!! Now I don't have to wear my bent oneπ
I wanted to give a brief spiritual thought! I have been studying Sacrament this week and this quote stood out to me, "Each member of the Church bears responsibility for the spiritual enrichment that can come from a sacrament meeting.β During the administration of the sacrament, we set aside the world. It is a period of spiritual renewal as we recognize the deep spiritual significance of the ordinance offered to each of us personally. If we were to become casual in partaking of the sacrament, we would lose the opportunity for spiritual growth." I love the Sacrament it is the only ordination that we can do for ourselves over and over again, so please next Sunday really think about what the sacrament means for you!!
Ok love y'all
