Hey everybody!
Happy first day of summer!!! We are spending our first day of summer not eating ice cream in the park like we hoped, but running from shop to shop so we don't get completely drenched, because after all, we do live in England.
I will introduce you all to my new companion so you can love her as much as I do. Her name is Sister Matthews and she is from South Africa. Her favourite colour is yellow. Her favourite food is meat, and her favourite ice cream flavour is strawberry. So we get along great cause I don't steal her meat and she doesn't steal my Ben&Jerry's half-baked ice cream. It's a match made in heaven.
We have had an interesting week, full of teaching people and waiting at bus stops. One of our favourite friends (it's bad to have favourites, I know) we are teaching right now is Doris. Doris is from Ghana and is SO AWESOME! Her son is actually a member in Ghana and she loves coming to church. She had the most amazing miracle recently. She lost her job because the man she was caring for passed away. She was two months behind on her rent and just didn't know what she was going to do. Two weeks ago she came to church for the first time. While at church she prayed and basically said "God, I'm in your house, if this church is true and if this is where I'm supposed to be, help me." She got home and 2 hours later her landlord called..... He said they would forget about the two months of rent she owed and start over fresh. Not only that, but that he would pay her council tax so she didn't owe that either. MIRACLE. ππΌ she bore a powerful testimony of God answering prayers and that she knows the church is true, then asked us when she could be baptised. ππΌππΌ GO DORIS ππΌ
Also, one day this week Sister Matthews thought she was a little more African than she actually is, and tried to make jollof rice (African rice, if you haven't tried it you're missing out). Long story short, it didn't work. But we laughed and laughed about it and ate it anyway. π
Well I hope you all had a great week. I love being a missionary. I love the Book of Mormon. I love this work. and I love the Lord. THE ATONEMENT IS SO REAL!!!
You're favourite missionary,
Sister Wright
