Elder in England: Week 27: Six Months!!

I can't believe that I've been in London for 6 months now! It seems like just yesterday that I was leaving Salt Lake City and arriving at the MTC! Time goes by SOOOO fast out here!!

This has been SUCH a great week!! As a Zone, we got 43 new investigators this week! We had SO many miracles in our finding! My companion and I were talking about what we could do better with our finding, and my companion realized that we needed to testify more, and ever since then we've been having much better gospel conversations with people!

I've also gained a stronger testimony of the power of prayer - after having a really good day of finding, my companion and I went to a different area to street contact. We could feel something was wrong as we were talking to people. After a few minutes, my companion made another good observation. He told me that we never began our finding with a prayer that day. After we stepped aside and said a prayer, we could feel an immediate difference in our finding. I am so grateful for the power that prayer has in missionary work, and I am so grateful for the help Heavenly Father gives me when I pray.

We taught Primary this week! It was loads of fun, and the kids loved the picture of my family that I brought them!

Thanks for reading! Hope everyone had a Happy New Year! Write me!
