Week 38 ~Transferred to Bracknell ~

 

September 29th 2020 Week 38 ~Transferred to Bracknell ~ 7 and a half months and they're shipping me out!  Hello everyone. To counter the over exaggerated statement above, "they" are not shipping me out. The Lord is sending me where he needs me. I'M GETTING TRANSFERRED OUTBOUND! If there is one thing I have learned while out on the mission it's that Heavenly Father is in charge and that brings enormous peace to me. It can for you too! Take a minute and think about why God needs you to be in the place that you are, with the people the are around you. If you feel that you are not where God wants you to be think about what steps you need to take to find out how to get there. I promise that as you do this you will find the peace that our Savior Jesus Christ speaks about in John 14:27  I'm headed to a place called Bracknell. It's about an hour and a half west of central London and an hour southeast of Oxford England  I'll be sad the leave sister Challenor, who I have been with for the past 6 weeks. Love her so much.  We have grown so much together and learned to really trust God with everything.  My new companion is from Switzerland and speaks 5 different languages! I've only met her a couple times, so I'll fill you in with more detail next week.  To all those that have sent me a friends request on Facebook》》》》 Thank you! I would love to share Facebook with you all but in the our mission we can only be friends with people in our direct area, on the mission and immediate family. I am not ignoring the requests. If anyone would like to reach me I will put my email in and you can try from there! Thanks:)  Last night as I was looking at the sky with no stars, cloudy and black, I thought to myself it's alright because they will be back another night. Something clicked in my brain and immediately the primary song came into my head that goes  "Faith is knowing the sun will rise, lighting each new day".  Although we may not see the sun we've seen it before and we know it's coming again. Our faith in God works in a similar way. We start with a hope that he hears our prayers and as we see those prayers answered  we can now say that we know from our experience that he will answer, some way some how. Our faith grows steadily stronger and we build more experiences with God, we are building trust on both side of the relationship.  Remember what Ether teaches us in Ether 12:4 when he says Faith and Hope will be an anchor to our souls? I believe it is that trust filled relationship we have with Heavenly Father and His son Jesus Christ that makes that anchor hold fast. I know they both care so much.  Little last note. Conference is next week!!! Wow that came fast! I love hearing our beloved prophet speak. Please if you can I would love to hear about what you all learn and your favorite parts!  My email is》 abigail.levie@missionary.org email me anytime and I will get back to you on  P-day  Love and miss you all!  hope you enjoy Conference:)  Love,  Sister Levie ReplyForward
