Two months out

Hey everyone! I hope everyone had a good week! It's always great to hear from all of you! 

This week was filled with ups and downs but overall it was pretty good. This past Thursday was the first time I had worked in my area in a week so it was definitely hard to adjust back to that. We actually went to York Wednesday and Thursday for more meetings! I didn't go to any of the meetings so I had the opportunity to work in York. AND we go to Leeds tomorrow so we are just all over the mission haha. 

Its hard to get back to work when you have been doing other things for a week so the first few days were hard on us. We just got tired a lot quicker on those days and were just not as happy as they could have been. So hopefully we can up our game to where it was before in no time. "Have no fear, P-Day is here!" haha. This Sunday we had stake conference so that meant that we went to York AGAIN! It was a really good session though. We got to see all of the missionaries in our zone and meet some of the other members including the Stake President. Our mission president was there as well. He is a really good guy and is an awesome speaker. He is like the Elder Holland of the England Leeds mission. He speaks with a fire in his voice that kinda scares you but he get's the point across. Overall it was a very good experience. 

The highlight of our week though came on Saturday. We were planning Friday night on who we should go visit on Saturday and we didn't know what to do so we prayed and then started looking through some potentials we found earlier. I recalled a guy we met a few weeks back named Mitch so we decided to go by his place. When we got there he was on his way to the store but said we could walk with him and he had some questions for us. He asked us so many good questions. Some about our views on blood transfusions, word of wisdom, law of chastity and Joseph Smith. What was even more amazing is that we found out that he and his fiance don't drink alcohol, tea or coffee and that he smokes but he's working to stop. They are also getting married in a couple months! They received everything we taught so well and had so many questions. They are about as good as it gets. So we meet with them this next week and were super excited! 

Anyway that's it for this past week. I hope it makes some sense. I love you all and hope you all have a wonderful week. Its sunny right now so its about as good as it gets. Till next week!
