It has been a great week here in Duston. So I will be staying here another transfer with my boy Elder Ammermon! we are super super stoked! We are looking forward to this next transfer together! we have seen some great things happen the last few weeks so we are stoked. We did not think President would let us serve together for 3 transfers but he is so we will see whats in store for us! It was a lovely week over all! We didn't have as much time in the area as we would have liked, But we seriously still had a brilliant week and had some great things happen none the less. 

So on Wednesday we were in London for a meeting. Wow i love that place. Serving there for 8 months i got pretty used to the whole London environment but since I've left, coming back just makes me miss it so much. Everything about it is just the best haha. The meeting was super spiritual as always. President and Sister Stevens are just the best. They always know how to help the mission in such a unique way. They are so inspired. There is just a spirit about them that I cannot describe. They are just the best. But the meeting was great and it was good to see the old companions (elder withers, and Burgess) and all the other pals. We had some good laughs. We also had a little goodbye for the senior couple who works in the office. Their names are the Williams and they are seriously the best. Im going to miss them so much, they have done so much for all the missionaries. i remember they were the first ones who we saw as we got off the Bus a year ago and they made all of us so happy haha. They live super close to home so i will visit them often. 

 

Not much else really happened this week until sunday. We had Zone Meeting on friday and it was a good time. everyone had fun and I learned tons! So the recent convert named Louise who was baptised a month ago has given us two friends to start teaching and they both came to church!!!! it was sweet! One of them is from india and he is way cool. The other is English. I've decided on my mission more often then not my companion and I are the ones with the Language barrier. I think we can both now start a conversation in the gospel in like 8 languages because of how diverse it is here hahah so thats been pretty sweet. Sometimes i wonder why i wasn't called to the England London Mission Romanian speaking or polish speaking. But i love it. I love all the cultures and foods and just how different it is. But anyways, we were able to see L's friend after church on sunday night. It was an amazing experience I will never forget. As we started the lesson the spirit was very strong. We taught about the Restoration and how important it was. it was almost like she knew right away that it was true, she seemed to finish our sentences as we taught. It was a feeling I cannot really describe. The lesson ended and Elder Ammermon and I were literally astonished as we left their flat. It was a lesson I will never forget. 

Lords Hand

i saw the Lords Hand this week in L's friend F. She really came to the lesson with an open heart. I'm realizing  that the lesson was for every single one of us that was there. I felt my testimony strengthen as Elder ammermon and I taught the sweet and simple truths of the gospel. I really know that the feelings of the Spirit come when true doctrine is taught and understood. I know that the feelings we had in that lesson only come with the knowledge that Christs Gospel has been restored. 

I love you guys! I hope the Utes put a beating on the cougars this weekend. Lets keep the streak going. I am stoked to hear about it. College football is backhaha! i hope you all enjoy school and live it up! Love you guys!
