Family,

I am way better this week than last week until I read Nathans letter about Mom in the hospital and now I am worried! but it will be ok if I just rely on the Lord to help me not to worry! I hope you are out and well by now but I will be praying hard for all of you. Thank you for telling me tho because I don't want to be in the dark.

 A yes I still love my companion! We have so much fun! And her moms name is Karen Adam. We think that she may have added the wrong darlene haha!

Also what are we going to do about christmas? are we drawing names or am do you guys just want me to get something little for all of you? let me know :) I can't believe we are already talking about christmas. It's going to be strange without you guys.

This week like I said was way better than last week. I was really having a rough time but I went on an exchange in Cornwall with Sister Ball and that was just what Ineeded.. a little change and then we had a zone training which was exactly what I needed again and it answered a lot of my questions and concerns that I had so I was so very grateful for that. Sometimes I am too hard on myself but in the conference they were talking about not getting discouraged and just account with the Lord. Numbers don't matter.. we should aim to improve them but put a name to a number cause it's the people that matter most and as long as we get the confirmation from the spirit that we are doing our best that's all that matters. It's not about impressing people it's about working as hard as you can and doing the Lords will. I just needed to be reminded that we can't be perfect...yet.. haha but it was good and I got a lot of comfort from it.

We have been meeting with this chinese girl named Brenda and she is awesome!! She is so golden. She has been in England for three weeks and for two of those weeks she has been at church. We met her the first week she was here. She is so interested in learning about God and she wants so badly to know that He is there. When she told us that this week we invited her to pray and ask right then and there with us if God was there. She prayed but she didn't realize that we meant pray out loud but she was praying in her head. The spirit was so strong even though we couldn't hear the words we could feel her prayers being answered. It was such an amazing experience. She then had some questions about baptism and so we explained what it was and we felt that we should invite her to be baptized and she was more than willing to accept. It was a really good lesson and the spirit is teaching her so much. She is so pure and so humble. Sister Adam and I both just think that she is amazing.

Well I am going to london today for my appt so that's good! I love you all and pray for you constantly! Love and miss you so much.

love syd
