Mothering Sunday!
It has been a crazy week! We had 3 meetings this week that we put together and planned.. they all went well, and I am glad they are done. I also had my driving test, and I passed! So that was great. Sunday was a great day as it was Mothering Sunday and I got to speak to the family, that is always fun! Our recent convert Wentworth has been out with us almost everyday this week, he is such a good missionary, especially when it comes to talking to Chinese people. We are working with a few people at the moment, but are struggling getting them to come to church. Great story from this week: We met a young Chinese couple that recently moved into our flat complex. They are starting a business in the big mall here selling fruit drinks. They asked us if we would be kind enough to test out their drinks to make sure they are good. It was brilliant. Doing service and enjoying some really posh fruit drinks. That's the life. We hope to see them at church this upcoming week as well. Thanks again for all your prayers and support! Hope you all have a great week!! Cheers!!

Nothing compares!
Highlight of the week was when Wentworth came and taught and did some finding with us. Listening to him talk about how the Gospel has blessed his life to others makes me so happy, I don't think anything compares to it. He was just a normal guy a month or so on the street and now he is someone that loves to share the Gospel with everyone. It is an amazing thing to see, there is know way of explaining it. He was also able to pass the sacrament this Sunday.This past week has been great! Very busy planning for our upcoming training that we have this week. The weather has been so random, one hour it will be sunny and warm and the next it will be cold and rainy, much prefer the first. My new companion is from South Africa and is going home at the end of this transfer. We are working with a few other people at the moment, Courtney is one that is really funny, he has a baptism date, he is Caribbean, so he seems to be living day to day in slow motion, he is so relaxed. Love being out here, I wouldn't change it for the world. Thanks for all your support and prayers. have a great week! Cheers!

Life is Good!!
This week is moves and we are pretty busy today, so I don't have much time. This week Andrew got baptised, and I had the chance to confirm him, it was brilliant, his is a great guy, also Wentworth who was baptised last week received the priesthood this weekend so that was cool as well. My companion is leaving, and my new companion is from South Africa, so it should be fun. Life is good here in England, we have been really enjoying the good weather, its been sunny! Love you all! Thanks for your support and prayers. Cheers!!!

Car full of Investigators!
This week has been excellent! Wentworth got baptised! He was so excited it was so cool for him, he loved it. I love being here. This week we had a car full of investigators that came to church. Each person was from somewhere different in the world. Cameroon, Ghana, China, Dominican Republic, Hungary, and England. How epic is that, we teach people from all over the world!!! We have another baptism tomorrow, Andrew is getting baptised. He is really excited as well, it will be great. The last couple days have been brilliant, it has been sunny and pretty warm, we have been on the streets a ton, people are more likely to stop when its warm. Life is great, and if you don't feel like it is, share the Gospel with a friend, it will make you happy. I love you all, thanks for all your support and prayers. Cheers!!

Great Stuff!
This week has been really good. Are still working with Wentworth and he is planning on being baptised this Saturday, he is super prepared. We also are going to have another baptism next Tuesday if our investigator Andrew passes his interview. He is gay, but this week told us he wants to get baptised, he wants give up his desires, and stay single his whole life. He is a super good guy, so we'll see how it goes. This week I had the chance to go on exchange in Oxford, it is a beautiful place, reminded me of when I served in Bath. Great stuff going on in the mission. I am very happy! I love serving in the Reading, it's brilliant! Thanks for all your support and prayers. Have a brilliant week!! Cheers!!
