Happy Easter!

Written on April 14, 2014. I've been a couple posts behind ;)


Family!

I figured I'd wish you a Happy Easter before rather than after it :)
This week has gone by incredibly fast. I don't even know what happened to it!
We have seen some progress with our investigators this week. They are keeping commitments and are increasing their faith. D3 (I don't know if I talked about him, we found him door knocking on the street with only 8 doors) came to church this Sunday! We were pretty excited about that. It was his first time ever attending any church. He was amazed at the faith which members demonstrated and he really enjoyed Fast and Testimony meeting.
G committed to a baptismal date! We are so excited! We have much to do in order to ensure that he is ready for May 10, but he has the desire and is slowly increasing his faith.
Ps is doing ok, but he has had some recent doubts. We are being faithful and patient and working with him to resolve concerns and teach to his needs. He is still pretty amazing though.
Probably the most eventful things this week were: #1 we found out Sister Appleby will be training this upcoming transfer, and #2 we went on exchanges (I got to go back to Harborne!)
Harborne. So many memories. It was so fun to go back, but its never the same when you go back and it's not your area. It was fun though. Because some areas were realigned I got to GQ (GQing is asking the questions "Who am I?" "Why am I here?" etc.) on some of the roads that I walked on every day! I got to see the University of Birmingham campus clock tower, the Queen Elizabeth hospital and some of the other sights that are so near and dear to me. It was crazy to think back to about almost exactly a year ago when I got there! I have learned so much as a missionary since then.
Transfers happen in 2 days, so we'll see where I go to (assuming I go, you never do know what will happen!) You'll get to hear next week :)
 
Here are some pictures:
On Friday we went to the mission home for the trainers meeting, and one of our connection trains was in Oxford (which is out of the mission). So, I seized  the opportunity to take a picture of the sign at the train station. We were only there for about 5 minutes though, and don't worry, we had permission from President to catch the train through oxford :)


Every Sunday morning for the last 2.5 transfers Sister Appleby and I have taken a picture. Here's the one from this week.
 
 Love you all!
Sister Roscher
