Kill Count...1...

Ya'll! The sun has been shining in England and it is GORGEOUS! Hope ya'll are doing great! Transfer news came and I'm still with Sister Jorgensen as a DFTC Sister! Woot woot! And we have a new Social Media Sister! Sister Boama! She is from Ghana and is a brand new missionary! She is so cool! Love her already! Saturday-Sunday: GENERAL CONFERENCE! - I absolutely loved watching General Conference this weekend! It's seriously like waiting for Christmas as a missionary haha! Here are a couple of my favorite quotes! - "What matters most lasts the longest."- Elder Ballard - "Never give up and opportunity to testify of Christ."- Sister Cordon Tuesday: DOG RESCUERS - Tuesday morning we were studying at a park and all of a sudden we heard screaming and dogs barking. A big dog attacked another tiny dog, and the tiny dog ran away. (No one keeps their dogs on leashes over here) So Sister Jorgensen, Sister Burggraaf, and I ran over and we helped catch the dog! Sadly the owners were not interested in learning about the gospel, but they were really grateful for our dog catching skills haha! - All of the new missionaries came in on Tuesday and we got to take them street contacting! It was so fun! All of them were amazing! Wednesday: KILLED MY FIRST COMPANION - In the mission field when we say we "killed our companion" that just means we were companions right before they go home... so don't get too concerned haha! Sister Burggraaf went home on Wednesday and it was so hard to see her go! But I am so happy for her! I will forever be grateful for everything that she has taught me, all of our pranks and jokes, and all of our spiritual discussions! - Sister Jorgensen and I tracted the steepest road in England!!! It was awesome!!! Saturday: BAPTISM IN BATH - This morning for pday I got to play RUGBY! (only touch of course haha) It was so fun to teach everyone and play again! - One of Sister Jorgensen's friends she taught when she was serving in Bath got baptized today! So we got to go! Bath is gorgeous!!! Love yall and Jesus loves you too!

  Hey Ya'll! My Pdays are now on Saturdays because I'm in the office! I'm also becoming quite the expert when it comes to the crutches haha! Monday & Tuesday: Last Days on the Island  - Had my last dinner with Dennis! He went all out! He made us steak and potatoes with a trifle! So good! Dennis was a blacksmith back in the day and he made Sister Olander and I rings! He is just the sweetest! I'm going to miss him so much!  - Got to go to the Needles one more time with the STLs! So gorgeous! - Signed the Isle of Wight sword! Wednesday: NEW COMPS! - I am now in a trio with Sister Burggraaf and Sister Jorgensen as Digital Finding Teaching Coordinators (DFTC Sisters)! We teach missionaries and ward members how to find and teach by using Facebook! So cool! I am learning so much from these Sisters! They are basically celebrities in the mission! - SISTER BURGGRAAF: If a Disney princess was real, it would be Sister Burggraaf! She is the sweetest person I have ever met! Siste...

Driving on the Wrong Side of the Road!

Image
Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well! This week was awesome!!! I started driving here in England last week! It's definitely an adjustment to drive on the left side! But! I can say with confidence that I have seen the Lord's hand in my life everyday... cause there's no way I would still be alive without Him...haha! People here drive crazy! I still don't understand, but I'll get there!!! Sunday: EASTER! - I loved spending Easter as a missionary! Just having my whole life focused on Jesus Christ made it so amazing! I got to sing a musical number with Elder Little and Elder Jaccod while Sister Jorgensen played the piano and Elder Hansen played the cello! It was awesome! All the cute British grandmas were crying haha! - I got to reflect a lot on why I believe in Christ. Lately a lot of people have been telling me that I don't believe in Jesus... even though I am a missionary for the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints... So I thought I would share my ...

YAY! I'M NOT A FAILURE!

Hey everyone! Guess what! I get to stay in the blessed land of Swindon for at least another 6 weeks! Woot woot! Tuesday: GOD & SCIENCE - We got to teach Jemima again and help her prep for her baptism! (Never had a baptism before... please send advice haha!) - We taught her about the Word of Wisdom and the Law of Chastity with an amazing member, Emma! The lesson was so cool! When we were teaching Jemima everything, she was so on board! Jemima studied Biology and was telling us how all the principles about the WoW and the LoC was backed by science! And Emma also studied science and mental health so Jemima and Emma were just bouncing off of one another! It was so cool! Wednesday: PRIESTHOOD POWER - I had my theory (written) test for my UK drivers license this week and I was beyond nervous. This would be my 3rd time taking it (yes, I know 3rd time) and I really need to pass it. I had studied so hard and prayed for the last 2 times but failed by 1 question. Test taking has never been ...
