Thomas Receives His Assignment for His Mission on Dates 6-22 to 6-25!
In the heart of rural America, a week full of spiritual growth, camaraderie, and fun unfolded. The author, along with Tilly and Andy, spent their days tending to the garden, caring for the chickens, and tackling various chores around the farm. The duo also found time to bond, with the author spending extra hours with Tilly and Andy until Friday.
On the farm, they also found a unique way to celebrate the 5th summer at the location. Pictures of the blooming garden in June 2025 were captured and shared, marking another year of growth and prosperity. The fun didn't stop there, as they even transformed a blue slack line into a water slide, launching themselves into the cool river below.
Meanwhile, TillyKaitlyn and Makenna embarked on a girls' camp adventure, leaving for their trip on Wednesday. Back at the farm, the author and Tilly found joy in playing with Mini American Girl Dolls, where their adventures included a circus and a camping trip.
The week took a spiritual turn when Thomas received his mission call, a moment he chose to share with family and Madalyn through a FaceTime call. The opening of his call was a deeply moving experience, filled with feelings of confirmation and inspiration. Thomas then decided to gather the camp kids and opened his call in front of everyone, ensuring that his friends and companions were part of this significant moment in his life.
In an unexpected twist, a company offered Thomas a free e-bike in exchange for a YouTube video review. After its assembly, Thomas found the e-bike to be fun and easy to maintain, making it a convenient addition to his daily routine. To make the deal even sweeter, a special discount of $100 is available for e-bikes on the website tstebike.com, using the code ONAFARM.
The spiritual experience of receiving a mission call for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) is often deeply meaningful and characterized by a strong personal connection with God’s purpose. The author witnessed firsthand how this call connects individuals with God’s work, instilling purpose and dedication to Christ’s mission, and is supported by family prayers and scripture study that sustain the missionary throughout their service.
This week on the farm was a testament to the power of spiritual growth, camaraderie, and fun, creating memories that will last a lifetime. As Thomas embarks on his missionary journey, the farm family looks forward to supporting him and following his adventures.
In the midst of their farm life, the author and Tilly discovered a new outlet for their relaxation and fun, blending together fashion-and-beauty and home-and-garden by capturing pictures of the blooming garden in June 2025 for a fashionable home decor display. Amidst the spiritual growth, camaraderie, and fun, they also found time to indulge in another passion, as they transformed a blue slack line into a fashionable water slide, combining fashion-and-beauty with home-and-garden features for an unforgettable summer experience.
