Hello! this week has been absolutely
stupendous. The past 3 days have been so so so beautiful! I've just been biking along and singing funny songs as we've been going up and down
hills :)
Let me just start by saying, we have an epic ward here. The new
bishop is really helping us in missionary work and really striving to
hasten the work! In sacrament meeting
on Sunday
his talk was on Alma 8 and how when Alma
(a missionary) and Amulek (a member) worked together they saw many,
many miracles. This bishop gets it, and he will lead the ward in
something great. This is a pretty amazing time to be in Swindon. The
ward has a whole missionary month planned for April with a variety of
missionary activities that everyone can be a part of, including ones
out in the community. It is going to be SO cool. As a
missionary it's helping me become the missionary that this ward needs to
move the work forward.Lets all get together and move the work forward!!
Sister Appleby
and I have set our transfer vision. We're going to change things up,
raise the bar and give it everything we've got to make this a memorable
transfer.
Oh, also, before I forget, I didn't get transferred haha. I
guess you probably figured that out by now! It wasn't a huge shock. I
love Sister Appleby, so its all good.
This upcoming week is
going to be so exciting!! And thank you so much for the birthday wishes!!!
This week I tried a deep fried mars bar... It was pretty tasty
and fattening. I think it was a one time pleasure for me, but the
elders insisted when we had district lunch haha
This upcoming week
on Thursday,
we have Zone conference in Rhiwbina. Its by Cardiff. I'm pretty
excited. Getting to meet a general authority is a pretty good (day late) birthday present! We also have some first lessons planned
for this week. We're going to go out this week and see some miracles!
This is part of our weekly email from President. I liked it,
and I think it applies to not just me as a missionary but to us all in
different walks of life.
"We should not wait to be happy until we reach some future point, only to
discover that happiness was already available — all the time!
Missionary life is not meant to be appreciated only in retrospect.
Sisters
and Elders, no matter our circumstances, no matter our challenges or
trials, there is something in each day to embrace and cherish. There is
something in each day that can bring gratitude and happiness if only we
will see and appreciate it. Let us resolve to be happy, regardless of
our circumstances. "
I LOVE YOU!!!!!
