First week in Ashford with my new companion

My new companion, Sister MuraKane and me!

This transfer to Ashford has been simply amazing! I love my new companion so much; Sister MuraKane is flipping hilarious and has chill vibe to her. I have lots to learn as a trainer and she is learning the ropes of being a missionary; so we are both in learning mode. It’s great!

This week we found 12 new investigators! So cool to witness the Lord’s work through us! We will have our first baptism in Ashford in three weeks – a gentleman named Sorin, from Romania! It’s just so exciting to see how the gospel is spreading and how it is helping to change so many lives for the better! It is the greatest blessing to be involved in the Lord’s great work! So thankful for my decision to go on a mission to share the gift of Jesus Christ with others!

Ashford is great! It’s a larger city than Mildenhall was and there are so many people and shops! The whole ward is 100 percent British and the members are great at feeding us, so I've been eating a lot of curry – gross, but I'll have to learn to like it.

Ashford is near the ocean, so today we went to a place they call the “white cliffs.” It is so incredibly beautiful here!! A big storm named “Doris” moved in and is super windy and rainy – we got soaking wet today! But we had an awesome time anyway!

Today’s such a busy day with very little time to write, so will hopefuly share more next week. I love you all so much!! 


Keep smiling; life is great!

Love,

Sister A in the UK
