SURPISE...Pday isn't Tuesday,
it's today for some reason, so here's an email for your weekend, I'll be back
on next Monday, the 24th, so hope this does some justice. This past week has
been so amazing!! This is the most fun and the happiest I've been in a long
time, and I love these people so Flippin much. It was a lit week!
After emailing on Monday, we met
up with the district and the sister training leaders and went laser tagging and
to this dessert place called Kaspas, which was absolutely life changing. It's
incredible, I can't do it justice. We went to Liberty Stadium(where Swansea
City plays, the football club), and I bought my first football/soccer jersey,
which I was pretty excited about. We also grabbed some legit fish n chips with
Will Roberts, the elders quorum president, and he told me about this legit golf
course called Langland Bay, apparently the Ryder cup was played there in 2010,
which may be false, but I'm already making plans to play a round there soon so
stay tuned! ⛳️ oh
also, at dinner, the waiter asked how long we were in the UK for and I said two
years while raising two fingers, which is flipping someone off here, we all
laughed cuz it was a sincere mistake, I apologised and the waiter was cracking
up big time
Tuesday was a lot of finding,
with no real success, not too much for the day to be honest, but it was a good
day, and the spirits still ran high, I don't really get sad or mad when people
reject us, more unmotivated sometimes, but I'm working on it. Oh there was a
kind of funny moment, these two little 12 year olds came up to me and my
companion and asked if we were from America, I said I was, he gave me a fist
pump and got kind of excited, which was nice cuz I feel like a lot of people
here don't like Americans haha
Wednesday, honestly I can't
remember that much from this day, but we had a lesson with Kxxx, which was
amazing as always. Oh also, it was my first "Dodge Night". Dodge
Night is where we find out what is happening for the next transfer, which is
actually crazy. Dodge night, it's no joke, like at all. The district is staying
the same, except sister swapp is moving to some other area, but the rest is the
same, and me and elder Mthethwa are staying here, no trio for now!
Thursday, we had zone conference
in Cardiff, which was fun. Um we went finding for a bit, I had some good
energy, I was happy. We saw Axxxn again, and he was cool, but needs to start
making more progression gospel wise, but we will keep trying. After we saw
Axxxn, the district all got dessert together at kaspas for sister swapps last
night, and that was fun!
Friday, what a day. We had a
lesson with Dxxxn, which went pretty well. After that we hung out with one of
elder Mthethwa's convert from a while ago which was fun. Then we taught
Kxxx about tithing with brother Roberts from the bishopric, he is the guy
in the center for the volleyball pic in black. He's exactly like brother Doyle,
he's so funny, brother Doyle: you would love this guy. We had volleyball, huge
show up, like that picture is only half the people that showed up, it was
crazy, and it was so fun, I love this place, I'm so happy I'm staying here
another transfer. My favorite two guys in the ward are brother roberts and
Shaun fish, he is the guy with the hat on the very right, he invited us over
for next week to hangout and listen to Jamesthemormon and for dinner, that'll
be a super fun dinner appointment, man I love this place, I don't want to
leave, at all. I hope I get to stay here past Christmas.
Of course I'll end this off with
a spiritual thought: a few years ago, elder Holland said "I would say to
all who wish for more faith, remember this! In moments of fear or doubt or
troubling times, hold the ground you have already won, even if that ground is
limited!" Stay true to the faith you have! I promise you as you do this,
your faith will grow, and you will receive blessings for it!
Anyways, I love you all! Have a
good week and Stay blessed!
