Transferred to Colchester

June 13 We need to go teach hope. I'll email later!! Transfers are crazy. I'm being moved 😭😭😭😭. I'm going to Colchester. I do not want to go. Packing and saying goodbye is eating up today. SO HARD TO LEAVE. I didn't expect it to be hard. I just said bye to a member and she started crying. :(.  I was so so sad to leave Lea Valley.  I am fine to Colchester--I don't miss it now, it was just hard to leave everyone.  Members were really difficult to leave.  I love them so much.  Sister Nelly is so sweet she gave me a scarf from Ghana right before I left.  (it's the one I am wearing in the picture with the Horrigams and Alvin on iCloud).  I loved Lea Valley and I always will.  I can't wait to visit again. Transfers are so strange.  I never expected them to be so hard!! It's like leaving home again!  Absolutely no fun.  However we packed and I somehow got to Colchester.  June 20 Hello and good afternoon!  ...

Sister Irish, Sister Mariel, Sis Soulier, Sister Ganiat Now this is a story that I hope to remember for the rest of my life. Okay. Um...do you remember the advice you gave me dad? Testify boldly with power? And mom do you remember the other advice you gave me? Have faith and work by the Spirit? Okay. Sister brown and I are putting both of these to the test right now. Absolutely to the test. Out of the comfort zone for sure. One of the reasons I hope I remember this story for awhile. But let's give some background first. One day Sister Brown and I get a referral. The referrals name is John and he lives 33 Kimberly gardens. Great we are excited to go visit him! We call him and schedule an appointment. Unfortunately the day of, John called us and said he would be at work until late but might come home early." sister brown in her infinite wisdom says, "why don't we just go visit his home? We might as well try." I agreed and off we went. Sister brown and I go...

Another week in Lea Valley innit?

The queen didn't keep her return appointment.... That is unfortunate. Good afternoon my friends!! England decided to fake out my companion and me (although she is English and so probably wasn't surprised that much) and go back to winter!  So fun. We were without tights for a week before and it was amazing.  But winter is back so bring on the coats and scarfs! Well...thanks.  Good thing Sister Cummings left super cool scarfs to wear. How is summer?  It sounds like an absolute party! England is super fun!  People are progressing--yay!  That's always a bonus.  The ward is hilarious as ever.  Sister Irish a woman from the carribean islands has the best singing/screeching voice ever.  No matter what the note may be--she hits a ringing one at least 2 octaves above. The best was gospel principles on Sunday. Of course the topic was just great (signs of the second coming) (actually was better than last week whe...
