Monsoons, where have you been?

Monsoons in Arizona typically start the first week in July. They are different in every place you live. This year, it seems as if the monsoons are stalling.

i cant wait for the start of the storms!

New and Old Relationships

While I have been gone from home, I have encountered different kinds of relationships. I have made new one, got in touch with old ones, and am trying to get to know people in church for future relationships.

When we first got here 2 months ago, I didnt think that I could make any kind of relationship here, as it is a small town. I was new, and I was a little bit nervous. I have never really been "new" anywhere, except when I went to a different church. Let me just tell ya, I hate being new. Lol. I guess you have to start somewhere right? I have been meeting new people in the last 8 weeks that have changed my perspective on things. I have mainly met people at church, but I have also met a couple of Hunter's friends as well.

I am falling even more in love with the church that I am at. I know that God has sent me here for a purpose, and I believe that purpose is being shown in this small town. Our music ministry at the First Baptist Church of Saint Johns is growing like crazy! We have new visitors every week, and I am just so happy to see the church grow. I havent taken any pictures yet, but I plan to do that soon! I might just take them tonight!

I miss everyone back home, but as I was driving today in the car, I realized that this is my mission field. God has sent me to a town full of Mormons to spread the word of God and to teach the truth. I have been meeting new people with different kinds of religion. I know that God has intended relationships with them to change their beliefs. It is awesome to always talk about the Lord and spread new seed.

These pictures are some relationships that have blossomed or are beginning to flourish. I will add more pictures of the people here in Saint Johns. Miss you all!
