Sorry I didn't get an email out last week, we ended up being pretty busy and I totally forgot about it until Tuesday. So I don't remember what week it was last week but I'm pretty sure it would've been 31... I don't know, we'll find out after I send this 😊
Lots of service this week!! We finally finished knocking down all of Tim's weeds... pretty sure I talked about that earlier, but if not we were just cutting down weeds for this guy who lives on like 20 acres so that his property could meet city requirements. It took us three days over three weeks, but we got it done! We also went and helped out at a yard sale to raise money for charity on Saturday. That was a good time, they raised like $1500 in four or five hours. And then on Saturday night we went to the Methodist church in town and helped cook a bunch of food. I guess the church gives out free meals and does a little worship service every Saturday night, which is pretty cool. People from a lot of different denominations come and help and we were able to share the gospel with a bunch of volunteers while we were working.
Not much to report as far as the investigators we're working with; everybody's had super busy schedules and we haven't really had any teaching visits all. That's alright though, this next week should be a lot less busy.
I read 2 Nephi 4 this past week... that's probably like the greatest chapter in any book of scripture ever. Like MAN! Nephi had an awesome testimony! All the trials and experiences he went through only served to strengthen his faith in God, and the last ten to fifteen verses of 2 Nephi 4 are one of the best examples of a strong testimony in the scriptures. I'm still not even close to where Nephi was and I don't know if I'll ever get there, but I know that I'm gonna keep trying to be more like him every day. I'd invite everyone to take some time during the next week and read Nephi's testimony of our Heavenly Father, because I know it'll strengthen yours!
Hope everyone has a good week,
Elder Hart
