Well this will be a quicky!!!!!

It has been a lovely week this week. the weather has been alright, it seems to have its good moments during the day as well as the cloudier darker moments. but we are happy, the work is moving forward as president says and we are out enjoying every second of it. so life is good!!! The week, like every other week has consisted of lots of finding. it has been a very interesting experience learning how to talk to people on the street and sharing the message of the restoration. I’ve realized that more often than not, the most solid people that we find on the streets are the people that we stop with maybe not the best approaches but with faith that they will accept the invitation to meet and to learn about the restored gospel. It's the people that are searching for truth and hear even just a small part of what we share on the street and feel that whatever "small part" is can help improve the quality of their life. Those are the moments I have enjoyed most on my mission, when someone’s countenance changes on the street when we share and teach about the restoration. it is a testimony builder to me.

So the week was SOLID! we were able to teach a super super cool English lad named S. He walked into the Hyde Park chapel on Easter and felt the spirit very powerfully and was able to take a few tours in the VC about the restoration. I personally feel so grateful to have the greatest visitors centre in the whole world in my mission. It's the best haha. so we were able to commit him to come to church and he came! so that was sweet! 

We has stake sports on Saturday and we played lots of football. To be honest, I could not walk after. I was so tired. We were finding in town later and everyone though we were like 90 year olds. so that was very exciting haha. 

But life is good. The Lords Hand was in all aspects of the work this week. I saw the Lords Hand in J, the recent convert from Ghana. He came out teaching with us and was bearing his own personal testimony of the restored gospel, the Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith. It was such a sweet moment to be a part of.

I love you! You are the best!!! STOKED THAT EAST LAX BEAT DAVIS!!! Super happy hahaha!! I love you!!!

No short cuts
