The best part of the week was our meeting with the Hanna Family. John
and Rachel don’t attend any church, but they want some guidance for
their children as they grow up. Olivia is 9, Jack is 7, and Dane is 5.
They are adorable and made me think of Cameron, Jacob, and Josh. We
taught about the apostasy and the First Vision, we gave them two Books
of Mormon that Uncle Dave and Aunt Crista gave us with their testimonies
written in front and all references to the Savior underlined, we gave
them a Childrens Book of Mormon Stories, and a framed Family
Proclamation quote. They were sweet and gracious, and seemed to
understand all that we taught. We invited ourselves back next week and
challenged them to read the introduction to the Book of Mormon and pray
about it. John gave the closing prayer and did a wonderful job. This
couple looks like a modern version of Adam and Eve from the Temple
Movie!! I can’t wait to meet with them again. Thank you for all your
prayers on their behalf and please continue to pray that they will feel
the Spirit as they read and pray.
We are taking a few days at the end of the week to see Gettysburg. One
of the small towns right by Gettysburg is called Abbottstown, so we
will be spending the night there. Maybe we will get a family
discount~!! Dad and I are watching Ken Burn’s Civil War to get
ourselves in the mood for our trip – I am really looking forward to
learning more and experiencing the highlights of Abbottstown, I mean
Gettysburg!!
Love to all, Abby and PaPa
