Happy 4th of July!!!

Hello Everyone,

P-day (Monday) 7/3 was great! I got a 16 GB UBS for $7!! And my Aunt and Uncle stopped by the Oakland Temple Visitors Center on their trip to San Fran to celebrate my Aunt's birthday :) Then we had dinner at one of our investigator's home; Eddie and Patricia! We found out that Eddie's mom and deceased dad are less active members of the Church!! Funny story: Sister Bosco couldn't stand not having a pair of cowboy boots. So we walked up and down Park street and called a lot of shoe places to see if any of them sold cowboy boots (which they didn't xD). Finally we stopped in to an antique store to check it out and Sister Bosco found out they had cowboy boots! She found a pair that fit her and she was so in love with them xD So she bought them :)

Tuesday: Happy 4th!! We had a fun ward breakfast/pot luck before the parade at our chapel! We talked to a non-member guy who said he's been coming to the chapel to watch the parade for the last 10 years. He said that he was interested in learning more from missionaries and that he would like to attend church! So we got him in contact with the Spanish missionaries :) Then we were able to watch part of Alameda's famous 4th of July parade when we went out to lunch with a member. We saw a few people we had talked to previously on the street during the parade which was cool :) 

Wednesday: We had an awesome lesson with Aidan about the plan of salvation :) We visited a less active member today. We were able to gain the trust of her daughter, Rebecca who has been a former investigator. So we're hoping we'll eventually be able to teach her again :) also, A new member named Andrew who Sister Bosco helped to teach and baptize came to the temple to do baptisms for the first time! 


We met a less active nanny and went to lunch with her!! And I got sunburned really bad when we passed out event calendars for the Oakland Visitors' center. I’ve been hearing how hot it is in Utah! It's crazy to think that it's cooler here in California than it is back there! 

Love you all!
Sister Phillips
