Hello everyone that I love!
It was a great week here in Chester. We had Zone Conference this week, and there is a missionary couple serving in Germany that are the mental health experts for the church in Europe. They came to Zone Conference to talk to us about managing stress. It was quite good. They gave us some relaxation exercises to calm us down and to help us focus. Quite good, quite good.
Well, England is amazing. But to be honest, this transfer I have spent most of my time in Wales. Most of our Ward's boundaries are in Wales, and Wales has some absolutely beautiful landscape. Boy Howdy. But there is a town called Mold, as well. It's a nice place, despite the name. And while we were in Mold in Wales, we met a wonderful woman named Anne.
She is the best friend of a Less-Active member of our ward, but we didn't know that. We set up an appointment to teach Anne and when we showed up, the Member Sister Roberts was already there! So it was pretty great. We had a great lesson with her and she even came to church yesterday! It was so great. She is really struggling in her life with one of her sons going off the deep end and going down a road that he shouldn't, and she's been really frustrated and sad. But she is so ready for the gospel. I love how the Lord prepares people and then allows us to find them and teach them. It's amazing!
I love this gospel so much. I know that the Church is true and that Jesus stands at its head. I know that Thomas S. Monson is a prophet of the Lord on the earth today and that God loves each and every single one of us. We are important to Him! I know it!
I love you all and I am so grateful for you! Have a great week and Keep the Faith!
Love,
Elder Ashcraft
