Dear Family,
Thank you for always being diligent in
emailing me every week. I really can't express how much I look forward
to it and how much it helps me to press on every week is this great
work! I am grateful to be blessed with the best family ever!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
This week has been good. We've had lots of
opportunities to give service. We've had a bit of a hard time seeing our
investigators often. We kept having great plans for the day and then it
would just all fall through. But I know this is the Lord's work and so
we just have to press forward and do our best. Our investigators are
doing great, but we are struggling to get them to make that final push
to reach baptism. We are really hoping and praying that Amerjeet will be
able to get work off so he can be baptised this weekend! On one of our
days that most appointments fell through, we had some really nice
members who last minute invited us out to eat with them. We were so
grateful and it was definitely a tender mercy. We went to Nando's. It
was my first time (which is pretty sad because I've been hearing about
it my whole mission but just haven't made the time to go). IT was
delicious!! They have really yummy chicken that you can choose the
spiciness you want! So spicy and delicious, jsut the way I like it
:)Frankin loved going to the temple, but still hasn't said he's ready to
be baptised. One day, hopefully soon! We have kind of lost contact
with Hassan :( hopefully he'll call us soon. We've also been really
blessed this week with weather. Whenever it's raining hard we are in
appointments, and whenever we are tracting it doesn't rain. Last night
we did finding most of the day and it didn't rain at all. But it had
rained all during church and as we were walking home it started raining.
The Lord is blessing us!
The week I've really learned taht the Lord answers our prayers.
Definitely not always in the way that we want him to, but he does
answer. There have been some instances that things have happened and
I've just thought "Why?!" And then the Lord reminds me about how I
prayed to develop more Christlike attributes and wanted to increase in
patience and charity, and how these opportunities he places before me
are how I can. I am grateful that he does hear and answer prayers. I've
just learned I've got to be careful what I pray for! But I'm grateful
that he is giving me opportunities to change and become more like him.
After all, that's what it's all about.
Sorry that this letter is short. I don't know what else to write
about. But next week I'm sure there will be plenty of exciting things to
share with you!!! And we're going to London today for our pday. Hurray!!
Missing you and praying for you!! Love you so very much!
Love,
Sister Davis xoxox
