Things are going awesome! I'm back in Bury St Edmunds and it's so fun. Back with all the members I knew so long ago. It's pretty neat to have the chance to get to know them better because I had so little time when I first started. Elder Bell and I are doing great hard work. This past week has been one of the best weeks of my mission! Not just for numbers or anything but because of the feelings we've had while we work. It's been amazing to see how good it feels to accomplished a hard days work.
The ward for the most part remembers me as well which is pretty fun and gets me to hit the ground running.
It's been funny walking around and seeing old places I used to knock doors and places where we spoke to somebody on the street. It's helped me to look back and see how my mission has helped me to grow. I'm loving it.
“I have often said one of the greatest secrets of missionary work is work! If a missionary works, he will get the Spirit; if he gets the Spirit, he will teach by the Spirit; and if he teaches by the Spirit, he will touch the hearts of the people and he will be happy. There will be no homesickness, no worrying about families, for all time and talents and interests are centered on the work of the ministry. Work, work, work—there is no satisfactory substitute, especially in missionary work.”
–President Ezra Taft Benson
I love you all, missions are the greatest! Go if you can.
