9 YEAR OLD STALKER

Idk what is going on but I am so confused by the weather this week. At the beginning it felt like late fall, now it feels like mid summer! Crazy! But it has been a great week! Wednesday: THE STALKER - Got to meet with our friend Rachel again! She is doing very well! She is now on page 170 of the Book of Mormon! Crazy! - On the way back from Rachel's, we went to go tracting in a village near her. When we were knocking on some doors, a little voice asked, "What are you doing? What are you handing out?" I turn around and see this 9 year old girl wearing bright pink with her bright pink tablet. We told her that we are missionaries! She proceeded to then tell us her whole life story, found out a bit more than I wanted to... Then she asked if she could show us around and if she could come knocking on doors with us... I could see the newspapers as we spoke. '2 Mormon women indoctrinate child to knock on doors to spread the Mormon cult.' We politely declined cause I personally do not want to go to prison, but she would not leave! We eventually pinky promised to go to her house and she went home... or so we thought... We went back to knocking on doors. Out of the corner of my eye I see this girl again, but now she was recording us! She had been following us around the whole time! Eventually we did go to her house, but no one was home... we left a note for her... very interesting experience for sure. Thursday: ZONE CONFERENCE! HALLELUJAH! - We got to drive down to Bristol for zone conference! It was a party! Seriously such a powerful conference! And I got to see my old comp Sister Masima!!!!! And my adopted mission grandparents!!! Love and miss them! But here are my favorite mic drop moments of ZC! • Goals reflect the desires of our hearts! • The only way to accomplish our goals is through Jesus Christ! • God will allow you to be the answer to someone's prayer if we are diligent. •As we study Christ's life, attributes, and mission we can find the answer to every problem and question! • We help God accomplish His purpose by fulfilling ours! • Who's love matters most? GOD'S! • Our truth is Jesus Christ! • We don't achieve faith, we receive the gift of faith through Jesus Christ! • Things we can control require diligence and things we cannot control require faith! Sunday: CONFIRMED! - Jemima was confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and received the gift of the Holy Ghost! It was amazing! She was glowing and was so happy! I can not describe how happy I am for Jemima!!!! She said that she feels re-energize now every time she goes to church! Love her! - Rachel came to church too! She loved it! - A really nice man gave us cold cans of soda on a hot day! He will definitely get blessings for that! Love you and miss you all! And Jesus loves you too!

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 ...
