Helloooooo erbody! It's been a pretty good week, we've met some incredible people and made a lot of good memories!
We
got to learn Irish Sign Language from a deaf man, Sean, in our
ward. It was pretty cool, but not gonna lie, American Sign Language
makes a ton more sense in my head!
We went on
exchanges twice this week, it was really fun. Once with Sister Fisher,
who is just the sweetest human being on earth. Then with Sister Bradley,
who is new to the mission. Both were a ton of fun!

Highlight
of the week: We got to do hardcore yard work on Saturday! Our friend,
Ali, has an awesome house that she rents out on AirBRN. Two travelers
that came through are members of the church from Texas. They invited her to church and she loved it! She has recently broken her
foot, so a group of us went over and helped out around the house. IT WAS
SO FUN! She's also a gourmet chef, so dinner wasn't bad at all.... :)
We shared the Book of Mormon with her and with Anna, an Italian girl staying with Ali. They both absolutely
loved it! They loved the historical background of the Nephites and the
Lamanites and how Jesus Christ visited more than just Jerusalem when he
was resurrected. It was hands down the coolest lesson I have ever been a
part of!
Yard work crew stops for lunch! |
MLC is this next week, so we're
flying out to Edinburgh Thursday morning, having a bomb diggity
inspiring council, and then flying back to Dublin on Thursday night. I'll
have some fun stories and cool pictures next week!

Nephi 26:24 is a scripture that has come to mean more and more to me on
my mission. Everything Jesus Christ did while he was on Earth, He did
for us. He set the example of how we can be perfect, and then suffered
for us so we can have that chance to try again and again. None of us
will get it right the first time, but that's alright. We realize what we
need to change, and then we need to actually change it. Christ already
paid the price for our mistakes. It's the greatest show of love we could
ever experience!
Love you all!!
