This week and last has been hectic. So on Monday for my birthday- I FINALLY bought myself a winter coat (first picture). It's been really off and on (the weather) and some days it's freezing with pouring rain and others it's bright and sunny and great hah. And it changes in seconds. So I'm glad I got a coat! We also got to go and see some investigators who fed us and gave me cake. It was pretty great. Tuesday we had to take a train to Luton (out of our whole zone!) to go to a police station! Elder Ho was an illegal!!! Just kidding. Kinda. Because he's Chinese he has to go and register at a police station everytime he moves as soon as possible otherwise he's an illegal. So because it was already half throught he transfer we figured we should probably get that done. Then we went to a members home and they celebrated my birthday again! More cake and candles hah and then we went to youth with them and got to play some chair football in our pros clothes (shirt and tie). I almost ripped my trousers! But I still got second. Friday we had a service project planned for someone we didn't really know.. We were just going with one of our investigators. So we planned it and then we got their and she wasn't there! So we called her and she was next door so she invited us to her friends house and we went in and apparently it was her birthday party or something hah so we got to meet a ton of new people and we ended up giving out our number to them all and set up to go paint at one of their houses (before the person we were originally going to paint for) So it was really random and we got to pray with all of them. And our investigator we were with kept whispering in my ear to teach them about the gospel and tell them what we do as missionaries! It was pretty awesome that he was so excited to share the gospel. Sunday we got to go to a recent converts house and do some crazy stuff. We got to hold their Leopard Spotted Lizard (I think) and pet it and then I got to put on some shoe things with springs on them and jump around! It was a good appointment ha Monday the internet was down here at the library- hence me not emailing then. But we did get to have an adventure. We went with the sisters to buy some chinda dishes to throw! Apparently it's good for stress! And fun hah so we made a long bike ride to a country town (where they have some "sheds" that are gigantic. They also filmed parts of Batman: Dark Knight Rises in them! Second picture) and had a picnic of wild blackberries, candy, and cereal. We started throwing dishes at a tree but it wasn't satisfying so we went back to the church and threw them there. It was a pretty good, long adventure. On Tuesday we had a workover with our Zone leaders. I went to Northampton and got to drive for the day again. It was really cool and we met some pretty interesting people! I even got to help Elder Tautfest (my temporary companion) get his first appointment while tracting! And he's been out for over a year! It was really fun. Wednesday (yesterday) we had zone interviews at the Bedford chapel. We got a great training from our President about Christ and what he's done for us and then we got a training from his wife about how we can be more obedient. They are really wonderful leaders and they know so much. I learned a lot. Then we got to go to a dinner appointment and we played a really cool game called the missionary game! It's kind of like monopoly but you work towards baptisms and you have to use scriptures and gain love and inspiration and member work and such. -Elder Jespersen
