January 30

Helloo! Yay i'm excited for you to go meet the gregson's, i can't wait to meet them. Oh and Sister Gregson's name is Chelsea, her older sisters name is Katie! And Macy Mattingly is engaged!? congrats! Ok that makes me so happy that Julia Rae got her mission cal! she wrote me before christmas saying she was thinking about going on a mission, yay!!!!! that's cool about your seminary class pen :) i love taht. well things are so good here in bracknell. i love teaching sister ho english. it is teaching me so much patience. :) ha ha but really it's so fun and we laugh a lot so we don't go crazy. that's the way to do it right? but she is so teachable, she is a wonderful example to me. she is a convert of only about 2 years so she loves learning the gospel as well as learning about how to teach the gospel! i think that makes for a better teacher anyways. ha ha but she is the only member in her family, seriously what an amazing example to me. i think it's hard to be here and yet i have so much support from everyone at home, i am definitely being humbled. :) well sister ho and i last week were out just talking to people and we started talking to this man called norman. Wwe talked to him about families and how his family can be together forever through Jesus Christ so he invited us to his home the next day. We taught him about the restoration of the gospel and afterwards with tears in his eyes he said thatwas not what he was expecting from us coming over to see him and that he felt so good. he then told us that he has had many people stop him on the streets or come to his home to takl about religin and he just never had time and never wanted to learn so we asked what as different about when he met us and he said "it felt different. i just felt like i wanted you guys to come over." :) and THAT is what it is all about. we saw norman again on saturday and we will see him tomorrow as we are preparing him for baptism at the end of february, yay!! please pray for norman :) that is definitely one of my favorite things :) I love you guys, I love the gospel, I love being a missionary, and I love England. 

These are a few of my favorite things:
*Teaching Sister Ho English
*Custard. 18p at Tesco! mmmm
*Hearing people say "jolly good" for reals :)
*Hearing peple pray for the first time
*Teaching peoples children who Jesus Christ is and teaching THEM how to pray :)
*Making people cry. I love it. ha ha 
*Did I mention we got to go through the temple last week when Sister Ho got here? And one of the missionaries got his endowment out (preston temple was closed when they were there!) so the temple president was with us and told us all about the London temple, oh it was so cool!
