It was a solid week this week!!!! We have
seen some sweet miracles with a few of our friends we have found on the street!
It was a solid week of general conference and the talks were so great. I really
felt that they answered the questions that I had and that I was able to receive
a lot of personal revelation for myself as well as our area. I will be staying
here in Watford with elder Williams for our second transfer!!!! We are so
pumped!! Haha we were very happy when we got the call. Life is good! We are in
the rebuilding stage like always haha but we are just out finding and
contacting. It's the best. But overall it was a great week. We are enjoying the
work and life is good.
We were in London this week and it was good
to be with past companions and we were able to receive training from President
and Sister Stevens. They are the best. President set some new visions and the whole
mission is super super pumped so we are looking forward to it!
We were in town centre on Tuesday contacting
and we stopped this group of Africans and they all walked away except for this
one guy. His name is B. And he's a legend. B is from Nigeria and when we
told him about the Book of Mormon he grabbed our arms, walked over to a bench and
sat us down and said, "teach me about this book" so we did haha! His
heart and mind were open to what we talked about and shared, the spirit was
able to teach him very clearly what the message was. It was so lovely to see
that as missionaries, all we can really do is bring the message unto the hearts
of these people, and B in this situation, it is then the spirit that takes
the message into their hearts. It was such a cool experience. B was referred
to an area in the zone and he accepted a baptismal date for the end of April.
He is a legend.
Lords Hand:
I saw the Lords Hand this week in B, I
saw that really as missionaries we are only as ushers. The spirit is the
teacher and it is up to us to teach correct principles that will allow the
spirit to teach and bring the understanding of those principles. I also saw the
Lords Hand in general conference. Elder Bednars talk In priesthood really just
helped me feel that I am in England for a reason but most importantly that I
have been called to serve.
I love you family. I hope hoy enjoy the
beach next week! Get sendy at the wedge shorebreak for me haha. I love you!
No short cuts
