We Have the Answers!

Dodge night!!!!! Sister Nelson is moving to Swindon and I'm training in Kidderminster :) exciting things are ahead!!!! Lots happened this week we had many incredible lessons but don't have a lot of time because we spent the whole day at the Sea Life Centre in Birmingham and we are gonna go play sports in Harborne. Already hate emailing lol.

Tuesday:
Zone meetingggggg. New schedule into play. It's the weirdest thing I feel like I'm being disobedient when we don't plan at night cuz now we do it in the morning.

Wednesday:
We had the coolest online self referral named Phillip. Legend. He said he's read the Book of Mormon twice and he knows that it's true. He's 68 and said he feels "spiritually starving" and feels that this is the place he needs to be to help that! WELL PHILLIP U ARE RIGHT!!!!!! (Okay so I typed this bit last night and he actually just texted us saying he thinks Joseph Smith is the author of the BOM and doesn't want to peruse. Awk) We also met this cool lady named Suma (don't get too excited tho) we met her on the train, gave her a BOM, she loved it and was like wow this is part of Gods plan this is not a coincidence at all and was emotional. Literally two minutes later after we got off the train we received a text from her saying "You need to find God and he will help you find the real Jesus. Your religion is a cult." We were like oh fetch Suma (and now Phillip).

Thursday:
Traveled to the mission home early in the am for my trainers meeting... it was a long day. But learned a lot... the greenies come in late this transfer so this week I will be with sister Nkomo from Africa for a week!

Saturday we taught English to our 2 families from Syria. We have become so close with Ahmed and Rasha. They are so much fun. The new one is a family of 3 sons and the parents. THEY KNOW LITERALLY KNOW ENGLISH. We had to teach them the alphabet it was crazy. They didn't even know how to respond to how are you. We can only communicate by singing the ABCs it's actually really funny and we had so much fun with them. They asked (through google translate) if we could come every day next week I was like uhhhh probably not hahaha. Bless them.

We went teaching with Ailsa (already doing member missionary work!!!!!!) she's amazing. Oh my gosh wow. She loves being at church and is so on top of studies. It was an interesting lesson because the guy was like "I want to know why I'm here and where I'm going" so we were like "Cool, we have the answers!!!" Then we asked if he'd pray to know if the Plan of Salvation was true and he was all "nah" .....uh ok.

Literally don't remember anything from this week. Oh well haha. It's been good taught lots of people.

Happy late birthday Momma:) love you xx
