England Bristol Mission

Hiya everyone! I am no longer in the England Birmingham mission. It is now the England Bristol mission. We lost our top half and gained a bit at the bottom. So basically the mission got a "haircut"

 

 

We had so many awesome miracles this week though. One of the best weeks of my mission as far as that goes.

 

 

1. We met a brand new person who had a Book of Mormon given to him 2 years ago, and met with us because he feels a strong pull to read the Book and sort out his life.

 

 

2. We traveled out to the edge of our area and gave a Book of Mormon to someone way out there. Now they want to meet up and have been reading every day.

 

 

3. We met a lady who just got out of hospital and although in pain had a very good discussion. We also removed all of the vapes in her house because she had been blessed by God to have not touched one since after her surgery. This was the first time she had ever gone without.

 

 

Doing great so far, the only problem is I have to take my driving test soon and getting a license here is MUCH harder than in the states. Other than that, I am enjoying my time wonderfully and I feel quite blessed to be in this situation.

 

 

A scripture I like:

 

 

John 17: 3

 

 

"3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent"

 

 

I have felt like I have come to know God so much better since last year. I find answers and peace every time I talk to him and I know he is there. That is more valuable to me than any definitions or stories. He hears and helps me today.

Hiya! I ticked another item off my mission list. We met with a man this week (The one from Patagonia in the previous email), and we got talking and found out he is the head pastor at 3 Welsh-speaking churches in the area. That is his job. He let us into his Chapel, and we got to look around. It was quite something. On the top of the building (much like our temples), was inscribed the word "Zion". But yeah, it was cool to teach a Welsh Pastor. Don't really see much happening with him though. We also taught Wendy again this week, and this time she cried when she shared about the Plan of Salvation. She is so sweet and humble, and we look forward to continuing to teach her. I pray she joins the church; she would be so good. On Wednesday, we had what I call "Old Person Game Night" at the chapel. Since our congregation is so old (average age of 60), we had an activity with really simple pub games, which included bowls, 9-pins ring toss, and darts. Surprisingly enough,...
