Jinger Duggar is relishing her time in Texas while celebrating a rare family gathering.
“Allie B. Stuckey’s Share the Arrows dinner was incredible! I’m so grateful to have attended with my mom and sisters,” Jinger, 31, shared on Instagram on Friday, October 10, alluding to the Christian-centered event taking place in Texas. “Now, let’s kick off this conference!!!”
Before the scheduled events began, Jinger took photographs with her mother Michelle Duggar, as well as her sisters Jill, Jessa, and Joy-Anna Duggar. They were joined by Kendra Duggar, who is married to their brother, Joseph Duggar.
In another photo, the Duggar sisters posed with their younger siblings Johannah, 19, Jennifer, 18, Jordyn, 16, and Josie, 15. (Michelle, 59, shares all 19 children with her husband Jim-Bob Duggar.)
“Reuniting with my mom and sisters,” Jinger mentioned on Friday. “Only missing Jana.”
Her eldest sister, Jana Duggar, resides in Nebraska with her husband, Stephen Wissman, and they are expecting their first child. It’s unclear if Jana’s pregnancy led to her decision to forgo this year’s annual Texas gathering.
Share the Arrows, run by Blaze Media, is characterized as an “impactful day of teaching, fellowship and worship” tailored for conservative Christian women, as noted on their website.
The Duggars traveled from various parts of the United States to attend Share the Arrows. Jinger and her husband, Jeremy Vuolo, are stationed in California with their three children, while Michelle and the rest of her kids live in Arkansas.
Despite the distance, Jinger’s family strives to organize frequent get-togethers. For instance, Michelle flew to Los Angeles in March to be with Jinger for the birth of her third child, son Finn.
“I believe she’s only missed two, but she has been there for all of ours,” Jinger commented during her own podcast in April, referring to their mother, the matriarch of Counting On. “Finn is my parents’ 37th grandchild, which is just mind-blowing to consider.”
Vuolo, 38, shared at the time that his mother-in-law was “fully dedicated” to supporting Jinger during and after the birth process.
“She arrived a week prior, stayed for a week and a half afterward, and she’s completely dedicated,” Vuolo expressed. “She comes in and takes care of everything for you every morning. It’s incredibly sweet of her to wake up before any of us.”
Besides her mother and father, the Becoming Free Indeed author frequently keeps in touch with several of her siblings.
“I mainly converse with my eldest sisters, also just had [Jennifer] visit me here,” Jinger mentioned during an Instagram Story in August. “That was an incredibly enjoyable experience. My dad and Jackson also dropped by, making it a lot of fun. [I also regularly talk] to Joy. They were here for some time, and we connected so well when she visited for a month since [her husband] Austin [Forsyth] had work to manage.”
Joy-Anna, 27, along with Forsyth, 31, brought their three kids to visit Jinger’s little ones in L.A. over the summer.
