So it is really
different from Newcastle- there are about a third of the Chinese students here
as there are in Newcastle- and we can't really effectively go street contacting
in city centre because it is such a tourist place- so it has been challenging
trying to find those Chinese students- and we are talking to way more English
people than we are used to, but I just figure it is preparing me for an English
area that I will probably go to next transfer.
I LOVE IT HERE IN
YORK!!!!!!! Our ward is so great!!!! They love getting involved with
missionary work- and they haven't had sisters for like a year so everyone is SO
excited- like really we keep getting calls and they just keep saying how
excited they are! Our ward mission leader is SO great and excited about the
work!! We have already been in 2 members homes, and have a bunch of
appointments and tea appointments next week- it is SO amazing!!!!!
York is such a posh
area- Sis I. and I are loving it!!
We are doing SO much
finding- everyone the elders were teaching left for china- and all the Chinese
members too, so we literally were left with nothing- but it is ok because we
are seeing so many miracles from whitewashing!! This area is a lot slower than
Newcastle- but it is our goal to stay positive and not get discouraged!! We met
this really great guy this week- Chinese guy- named V. - he was able to come to
stake conference yesterday! He enjoyed it! We are meeting with him again
on Tuesday! so excited!!
So the assistants
drove us back to Newcastle on Thursday- I think since POTS isn't common in
England he doesn't really know what he's doing- but all of my results came back
positive :) and he is trying to get my records from America- but he is just emailing
Dr Judd- I don't think it works like that- and he showed me the emails that he
sent- he didn't even spell my first or last name right hahaha. But he came
to the conclusion it is POTS and that I should be taking that meds-- I haven't
started taking it yet in fear that I would get fat-- I just don't want to be
taking that med that makes you gain weight while on a mission where I am
gaining weight- plus in an area that feeds us all the time. . .. . but I
am going to start taking it this week! I really am doing better! But
still I will start taking the meds :)
My address is 37
Granville Terrace, York. North Yorkshire YO10 3DY -- and Sis I.and I would
love food :) thanks mom! You're the best!!
So you asked about the
flat- it is SO nice! It is kind of older- but it is still more new than the one
in Newcastle- it is so cute and cozy- two floors, way better than what we were
living in- and I thought the other one was fine! hahaha
I am loving serving
with Sister I.!! We are having so much fun!! We are working hard and I am
loving it so far :)
PS I got the
package!! Thank you for the lake powell hoodie!! Well I love you
loads!
