<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I probably won't have time to email next Tuesday, September 1st, as I will have my departing interview and dinner with President and Sister Stevens.<br /><br /><b>Dear Family and Friends,</b><br /><br />The time has come to say goodbye to this wonderful people on this other side of the globe. I have grown to love them so much and I have learned a lot from them. They will always hold a special place in my heart and forever will be part of my life. I won't miss the mission just because I have served here in England but because of them. Remember, it's not about the geography. It is about our brothers and sisters in Christ. It is about inviting everyone to come unto the Saviour.</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Time flies by so quick. There are lots of things that I have learned, things I could have done better and things that I really love doing in missionary work. This past months has been the best eighteen months <b>for</b> my life. I know that the things that I have experienced here will shape me to be the person I need to be, the person that God wants me to be.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This poem that I've found summarises my feelings right now:</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As I served full-time, I grew closer with my Maker and with the Saviour. I have had so many spiritual experiences that are too sacred to share, but this I know, He lives! Like the Prophet Joseph Smith said, <i>“And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of Him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of Him: That He lives!”</i> (D&C 76:22)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only true and living church upon the face of the earth that is <i style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">“built upon the foundation of apostles, prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone.</i><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><i>”</i> </span><i style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </i><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">(Ephesians <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_824727576" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">2:20</span></span>)</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I also developed a testimony of the power of prayer. It is so real!

Lol, we had thunder</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">storms and really heavy rain the whole week. ☔️⚡️💦💧</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Dear Family and Friends,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Oh well... Anyways! Our week was normal! We had a zone conference</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">which was so good and so spiritual. We focused so much our trainings</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">on member-missionary work and the doctrinal topic was the sacrament.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It was so sick! I love it so much! Sister Stevens, as most of you</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">know, worked in the General Primary Presidency, so she made us sang</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Primary songs. It was great! It was funny though because she said she</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">can't sing but President Stevens prior to his calling as our mission</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">president was a member of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir! 👌🏽</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A day after that, we were invited by the stake president to have a</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">dinner at his home. (Side note: We have lunch and dinner appointments</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">everyday to every members house, man, I am gaining so much weight it's</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">not even funny...) Anyways, the spirit was so strong in that house!!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've been receiving referrals from the members.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I can see how the Lord protects His missionaries, how we have angels</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">on our side, because we were in an area around </span><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_824727574" style="background-color: white; border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">20:30</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">, we lost track of</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">the time as we were busy talking to people ( also, it was still light</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">as if it was in the afternoon) so we were there late and during that</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">time bus services weren't regular. We waited for ages in the bus stop</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">and the bus didn't come and we really needed to be in our flat by</span><br />

We prayed and after a minute someone pulled over and motioned</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">us to get on and it was the member of the bishopric and his wife! We</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">got home safely and on the dot. Phew!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Can I just tell you how much I love the Bueno family, the Brazilian</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">family that I included in the photos I've sent the previous week?! I</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">just love them so much. They have us over every Sunday and they feed</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">us every time the traditional Brazilian food! 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They also referred us to their friends, another Brazilian family. This</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">coming Sunday, we are going to cook for them from appetiser, main meal</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">to dessert! 😄</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Oh, I forgot to tell you that we've been cooking the whole week for</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">members. Sister Chou is a great cook! I'm getting better on making the</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Huge shout out to Sister Mussman's Mum, Carol, who reads my blog!!!</span><br />

We have seen a lot of tender mercies from the</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Lord in our area. Aside from having a hay fever for almost a month and</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">a half now, I am doing great! I am loving this area. Colchester is</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">very beautiful, the oldest town in Great Britain. Don't worry, they</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">have modern buildings here. ;)</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Since our area covers the University of Essex, we meet with a lot of</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">uni students everyday. We planned several questions to ask them</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">regarding their studies and tie it in a gospel conversation. The</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">funniest part of this week was when we stopped this Chinese guy and we</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">forgot what question we should ask. Our minds were totally blank. Lol.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Sister Chou asked him, "Hey, have you met Sister Ordanza before?"</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Hahaha. It was so funny, poor guy he was so clueless. To avoid</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">embarrassment I told him, "Yeah, have we met before? You really look</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">familiar." Lol #MormonPickUpLines</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Anyways, we had a really good conversation with him and he came to</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">church yesterday. 😀</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">My favourite part of the week was yesterday. I love Sundays! One of</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">the friends we were expecting to come didn't show up, we even had a</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">lift arranged for him. :(</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Anyways, as we entered the chapel a lady just came in. We welcomed her</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">and asked if she's visiting as her face was not familiar to us. She</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">told us that she is a member of a certain denomination but for the</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">past few years she felt that there is something wrong in the church</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">where she belong. She spent the whole week last week researching about</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">our church and in her own words ; " The more I research about your</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">church, the more I have a desire to join your church." As we were</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">talking to her, a couple came in and the Elders welcomed them. They</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">said that they have been researching </span><a href="http://lds.org/" rel="noreferrer" style="background-color: white; color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">lds.org</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> and they are so eager to</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">visit our church and to learn more of our beliefs. The Elders are</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">going to teach them both! On the other hand, our newly found friend is</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">such a great miracle! After the fast and testimony meeting, her eyes</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">were so teary. We've had a really spiritual Sabbath! The members</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">welcomed her warmly and we are going to see her again this week! I am</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">so looking forward to meet her again!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">I hope you guys are having a fantastic time! Cherish the weather</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">wherever you are as someone is freezing out here. ;)</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Oh by the way, the subject line means "I'm full all the time."</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">#GainingWeightAllDayEveryDay</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Til next PDay,</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Sister Ordanza</span></span><br />

We also had a baptism last Saturday which I</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">don't have it in my iPad at the moment as we took photos on our</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">cameras.

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am so sorry if I haven't been able to email you for the past weeks, I am not ignoring you or anything like that. And Ma, don't worry, I didn't forget yours and Pa's 25th wedding anniversary!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was in "isolation" for almost two weeks. Yeah, I got a very contagious disease, CHICKEN POX. A very common thing for children and when you get it in your adulthood, it is so unpleasant. I had it from head to toe. Yeah, my face is ruined. Pre-mission = ugly. Almost at the end of the mission = THE UGLIEST.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I don't know who I got it from, we meet and get in contact with a lot of people everyday.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Those two weeks was the loneliest day of my life. If you know me well, you know how I can't just sit in a bench or somewhere else without talking to someone or making new friends wherever I go. But this time, I have nobody to talk to. Whenever I see myself in the mirror, I just cry thinking who is that awful monster in front of me. For reals.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My dear friends, it was during those times when I had the overwhelming feeling from the spirit that the Atonement is real. That Jesus Christ is real. It was during those times that I thought of that Man in Gethsemane and when He was on the cross in Calvary, because He walked on that path alone, you and I are never meant to walk on this journey alone.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I still do my personal study and I was studying faith that day. I came across an article about the pioneer saints and early missionaries of the church. Their examples gave me strength to carry on, to press forward during those difficult times of my life. They died on the mission field, they got cholera and other worse diseases but they never complain. It wasn't easy for them, it wasn't easy for the Saviour, nor it will be easy for me as well. My experience wasn't nor will it ever be the same compared to theirs, but I know I learned a lot.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We didn't have the chance to attend church on the 7th (as I'm still contagious) and we were expecting few of our friends to attend church that day especially because of Elder Holland's broadcast. Our friend who is getting ready to be baptised in two weeks confirmed that he is coming. Because me and my companion were severely ill for almost a week, we haven't arranged a lift for him. We tried arranging on Saturday night but everyone we asked told us that they are planning to walk to church that day as the weather will be good. (Side note: People back home, please appreciate the sunshine there. People here get so excited whenever they see even just tiny little rays of the sun. I have never I appreciated the sun and heat back home until I came here in the country of rain, damp and cold. Love it!) Anyways, we were just sad that he won't be able to make it during that great day. Imagine our surprise when the Elders called us after the broadcast telling us that our friend came! We immediately called him and he told us that he walked all over from his house to the chapel, vice versa, (it's almost 8 miles). We asked why did he do it and his answer just brought happiness to our dying bodies. He said, "Sisters, you told me that an Apostle of the Lord is coming to speak, I really wanted to see him and hear whatever he will say. What he spoke of today is exactly what I just needed!" We just stared to each other with tears rolling down our eyes. I know that Heavenly Father will help His people to draw closer to Him by sending His servants, the prophets and apostles.(We are just sad that we won't witness his baptism.)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Transfers came by. Yes, since I have been in King's Lynn for almost six months, I am getting transferred. To our surprise, Sister Mekonnen is moving as well! President Jordan told us that it is better for her to move than to stay here because of her feet. Remember my emails before, her feet got worse. So she needs to be in a car area and in our mission, there is only one area that has car for sister missionaries. That's in Thetford. They cover two wards which are both American wards as they have the Base there. Anyways, Sister Mekonnen will be serving there with Sister Quinn!!! She will still be in the same district as King's Lynn.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Members in King's Lynn was so sad that both of us were leaving. We definitely did our very best in that area in terms of member missionary work and everything, we left a lot of teaching pool for the sisters who are coming. We are proud to say that "we left our area stronger than we found it" as stated in Preach My Gospel.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I couldn't travel using public transport - train, buses or tubes - , so Sister Mekonnen left <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_319431316" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">6am</span></span> in the morning for her to move to her new area and by the instructions of President Jordan, I was on my own at the flat waiting for my ride. The Baxter's (one of the couple missionaries in the mission office) were so great! They weren't scared of me. They came with my new companion and picked me about <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_319431317" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">13:30</span></span>. It took them four hours to get to King's Lynn from London and it took us five hours to go back and be dropped off at my new flat.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As for me, I moved to Enfield, part of London, the ghetto part. I am back in the big city and it will probably be my last area. My new companion is just so sweet and so gorgeous. She is from Australia and is a Samoan! She was surprised that I can pronounced her last name properly and I told her that I am used to Polynesians last names back home. I feel sorry for her to see me on this state though and she's stuck with me. What's exciting in our area is that we are serving in an African ward!!! Wohoooooo! I love them so much. We have four families in the ward from the Philippines. In fact, we had a dinner appointment with them last night. I am just looking forward to fully recover soon and to have a blast!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I know that if we work our hardest and give all that we have, Heavenly Father will make up the rest and miracles happen. This principle applies to all of us my friends, whether you are in university, at work, at home or anywhere.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The joy that this work that has been brought to my life is so enormous that I feel I won't get if I didn't choose to serve a full-time mission. Missionary work is the best work everyone could ever have!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I know it's a lame subject line, but...<br /><br />Dear Family and Friends,<br /><br />We have had a really great week! Remember the miracle that I shared last week? So, he "investigated" the church three years ago and he went to a country where unfortunately, the church isn't there YET. Few weeks ago, he came back to England, that was the time that he referred himself at the website. Anyways, he asked us which MTC we went and we told him that we went to Preston MTC. He told us that one of the missionaries who taught him is a teacher there. I found out that's one of my teachers! K. That's just the background story. Lol I'm so lame in telling stories. Hahaha. Anyways, I reviewed my journal entries back in the MTC days. And what did I found out??? Ohmydays!!! That guy was one of my "investigators" in the MTC played by my MTC teacher!!! She did a really good job in pretending to be like him in our TRC!! Oh my. Anyways...<br /><br />The other miracle happened yesterday. We went to visit one of our potential investigators in one of our areas that we cover, the Eastern European community that I was talking about in my previous emails. Anyways, it turned out that the potential already moved out, but the couple who are living there are way nice, plus they're Brits! Wohoooo!! The girl lived with her cousin who is a Mormon and has been taught by missionaries in Birmingham Mission before. They are so golden! They invited us over for a dinner and teaching appointment again this week! I love how the Lord works in preparing His children to learn of the restored gospel.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've had exchanges this week and I stayed here in King's Lynn with Sister Ferrell. YES, THE ONE AND ONLY SISTER FERRELL!!! Yeah, my second companion in Kettering. I miss her so much! We've had a blast that day. I love it. <img alt="😀" class="CToWUd" goomoji="1f600" src="https://mail.google.com/mail/e/1f600" style="margin: 0px 0.2ex; max-height: 24px; vertical-align: middle;" /></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Guess who came to church yesterday? Yes, our investigators/friends (we don't really use the word "investigators" in our mission, we use "friends" rather") ...also my favourite family that we've been teaching since I came in this area attended church again yesterday, they're the one who are quiet less-active members. They've been coming to church regularly now and the twin boys are getting the Aaronic priesthood next week!!! Ahhhh. And our friend from Angola who's getting ready to be baptised next month invited his friend to church and to learn more of the gospel! I just love these moments. I will definitely miss the people here, so bad!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One particular miracle that I want to share with you happened the other day. We received a <a href="http://mormon.org/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">Mormon.org</a> referral. To be quite honest, most of the time, throughout my time here in the field, all the referral that I encountered through that source are all pranks. But we visited and contacted him anyways. I should have more faith though because he turned out to be one of those "golden" people that I've ever met. (I already repented in case you're wondering :D) he came to us at the barbecue today and will come to church this Sunday!!!</span></div>

Nung Sabado, nasa area na yan kami. Naglalakad kami and ang super init so nag decide kami ng companion ko na mag bili ng maiinom sa isang local shop, medyo maliit lang yung shop, kasi nasa village eh. Guess kung sinong naabutan naming namimili aside sa dalawang matanda na customer din? Si Kate Middleton! Homaygas. Nakakaloka! Sobrang simple nya teh. Naka jeans lang ang lola mo and naka pony tail.

The highlight of it was yesterday at</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">church. All our investigators that we've been meeting attended to</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">church again. Ahhhhh!!!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">And also, my favourite less-active family that we've been visiting</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">came to church. It is so amazing to see these people interact with</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">other members of the ward and most of all, to feel the spirit as they</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">partake of the sacrament.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Our relationship with the ward is so great. They have been coming with</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">us, whether we're street contacting or teaching! We are also teaching</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">our investigators in their homes!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">I do hope that you offer your homes to the missionaries to teach their</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">investigators there as well. There is a special spirit as we visit a</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">home full of love and the gospel.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">One particular miracle that I wanna share on this weekly letter is</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">about one of our current investigators.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">We met him on the bus on our way back home. He has been to church</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">around 2001 with his mum. Because his mum stopped coming to church and</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">meeting with the missionaries, they lost contact with them. Imagine</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">his surprise when he saw us on the bus after 14 years!

We did great as a zone last</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">month, so that was our reward. 😃</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Work is progressing here in King's Lynn! Most of our investigators</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">came to church on Sunday and we are teaching a lot of families. We</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">keep finding Portuguese people! We are also teaching French, Russian</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">and Greek families! Wohooo! We found a lot of miracles this week. My</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">favourite one was when we found our new friend who's from Jamaica!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">And yes, I will be staying here in King's Lynn for another transfer</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">(which is a five-week transfer) with Sister Mekonnen!!!!! We are so</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">excited and so pumped about it!!!! ☔️ or ☀️, we will have fun!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">It's so good to hear from most of you. Know that I love you all and</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">that I am praying for you.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">I know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love us so much.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Sometimes, we think we are abandoned or forgotten, but we are not. We</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">are loved by our Father in Heaven who has a unique and perfect plan</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">for us. Whatever may that be, be excited to discover and take that</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">journey!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">I want to remind you of what President Monson said, "Remember who you</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">are and who God expects you to become. He loves you and that love</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">never changes!"</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Love,</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Sister Ordanza</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ola!!!! Guess what?! Yeah, it's been so sunny here in England the whole week (well, at least here in King's Lynn) and that's such a wonderful miracle!!!! Yes, we're getting our awkward tan lines on our feet soon!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The past week was week full of miracles!!! And oh, please include Sister Mekonnen in your prayers as she is still not feeling well and can't walk that much! No worries though, the members here are so nice that they've been giving us rides to our appointments and are teaching with us as well. I seriously don't want to move. I am praying that I get to stay here for at least one more transfer.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Yes, it'll be our transfer day next Wednesday. That means our PDay is on Tuesday, the 5th!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Another amazing week has gone by! We are doing great here in King's Lynn apart from we were to stay at the flat because Sister Mekonnen's feet swell so bad that she can't walk. No worries though, she's fine now. We already went to he hospital.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've had a lot of crazy and funny experiences this week. Mind you, no more clumsiness. :D</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As we were going to the hospital, I approached the receptionist if there's a walk-in clinic that we can go. She explained that there's no such thing like that here in King's Lynn but they have an Accident and Emergency Department. She told us "You call it ER." That's when we realised that she thought that we're both Americans! Ohmydays. Hahaha. It's so funny because this has been the fifth time in the field wherein I was mistaken as an American. Whale, what can I do with my R's and T's? :D</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They finally just split the area with the other set of missionaries here and we got the southern part of the boundaries of King's Lynn ward. That means we travel by bus and train a lot. One particular area is an Eastern European community. We got to learn to speak basic words as they are struggling with their English as well. I love it as they are so humble and we have fun teaching them! And oh they are feeding us as well. (That's a plus!) ;) They are planning to set up a branch here as well. Not yet sure, but the ward has been deciding to conduct a special sacrament meeting here at least once a month! Yeah, the work is progressing!!!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We were so exhausted this weekend as we woke up around <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1995294291" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">4pm</span></span> <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1995294292" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Saturday</span></span> to make sure that we're not late for our <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1995294293" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">10am</span></span> meeting in London! Oh, have I told you that Elder Bednar and Neilson are coming to our mission next week as they will train us on how to use our iPads for missionary work? Yes, we're getting our iPads in two weeks!!!!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've had an amazing week full of miracles! I am trying to learn Portuguese as most of the people in our teaching pool are either from Portugal or Brazil. Crazy, isn't it? ;) And we have a lot of Portuguese recent converts and they are on fire on giving us referrals. Wohoooo!♥</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I love this people and this area. I love serving here. I am having fun everyday serving here with Sister Mekonnen.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ohmydays. The other day, because of the season change. I had a terrible nosebleeding. hahaha.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We were on the bus on the way to an appointment when my companion told me that I have blood in my face. So scary. lol</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And my clumsiness is back. We were doing a service project the other day. We mowed a lawn and instead of doing the grass, I cut the wire!!!! Ugh. Fail. (They have different lawn mowers here btw)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Last night, it was pouring rain and it's not yet time to go home so we decided to stop by at a returning member's house and she offered us a hot chocolate. And yes, I spilled it in her newly carpeted kitchen. #EpicFail</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Dear Family and Friends,</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It has been a fantasic week here in King's Lynn with Sister Mekonnen. It's getting warmer compared to the winter time so, my companion is doing okay now!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sorry I haven't emailed yesterday as we've had interviews with our mission president.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've had a really busy, crazy and amazing week. I love my new companion. She cooks for me. :D</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have Ethiopian food mostly everyday, cool huh!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am so grateful for all the things that I am learning here in the mission field. Everyday is a new learning experience for me.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have learned a lot of things in the General Conference this past week. I know that all our leaders are called of God and I sustain them. Most of our investigators came to the Saturday and Sunday sessions of it and they all felt the spirit. I loved it especially as it fell on the Easter weekend. I can't even express my gratitude to the Saviour's atonement. Being here in the mission field, what an honour it is for me to feel a little bit of what our Saviour felt! I know that He lives!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I hope that in your own way express your gratitude for Him in everything that He did for you.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is so crazy but I am so excited for the next six weeks of this transfer! My new companion is so cool and amazing! :)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Her name is Sister Mekonnen and she is from Ethiopia. (Okay my geography skills failed because I didn't where in the map is it. I thought it's somewhere in Egypt and it's in Africa!) She is so cool. I can see myself in her, I mean, weather wise. She's freezing. I remember the first time I came here a year ago, haha. Whoops.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Everyone has been inviting us to visit their homes lately. We are so busy. I love being busy in the Lord's work.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This time of the year is such a special one. Great act of love that happened in the history. I am so grateful for the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Aside from my family, He is my greatest motivation here in the field. I know the He lives! And because He lives, we too can live with our Father in Heaven, Him and families forever!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Yes, it's about family history.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<strong><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Dear Family and Friends,</span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">How has your week been? Mine was absolutely wonderful! :) Sister Ishizawa's family sent me chopsticks and sent us a lot of Japanese food. Oh my days. I'm having a "Japanese" lesson every day. haha She's teaching me how to make origamis! :)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We decided to use family history as a finding tool this week. Para maiba naman. We filled out information about our families in the My Family booklet and everywhere we went we just talked about it.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One particular day, we missed our train. (Yes, that's how huge our area is. In previous areas we just ride trains whenever we go to London.) We went to one of the beautiful and little villages outside King's Lynn and train comes every hour. We decided to do some street contacting but since it's around five in the afternoon (it's as dark as <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1180302863" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">10pm</span></span> btw), so chilly, so no one was out. Woah. Scary huh. But we're safe, I promise. :)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Probably 20 minutes before the next train comes, we saw a lady. We stopped her and when she saw our badges she said that she's not interested. (Yeah, we get that a lot. haha. Perks of wearing a badge! They'll look at the nametag first before at your face. :D) She continued walking.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I forgot what we said but she heard the word "family history" enough that she stopped walking and said, "Did you just say family history?!"</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It turned out that she's been praying to Heavenly Father for 8 years for help about her family history. And that particular day, she begged Him again on her prayers that He'll listen to her prayers. We arranged a return appointment with her the next day and brought our family history consultant in the lesson. She cried and definitely felt the spirit of Elijah! She came to church yesterday and we will extend a baptismal invitation on her as we have dinner with her and our family history consultant <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1180302864" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">this Wednesday</span></span>. MEG, SHE'S MEXICAN AND HER FAMILY LIVES IN ARIZONA.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Since it's so dark in here during the evenings, we just try to plan our days better on the evening schedules. On our way to our FHE appointment with Tom, we got lost in the middle of nowhere. We have no idea where we were! No one was out, we can't ask someone for directions even we carry our maps all the time. The only option we can do was to knock someone's door. We did that to the first house that we saw. A family answered the door! They said that we got off pretty early on the bus and we are destination was too far away. They offered us a ride to our appointment and we've had a gospel conversation with them. They invited us again on their home to share a message and we did the very next day and they came to church yesterday!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've had exchanges with our STL's this week and I stayed here in King's Lynn with Sister Pope and Sister Ishizawa went to Ipswich with Sister Griffith. I love exchanges so much. I learn a lot from the STL's! :)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Whale...It depends on your definition of FUN. :P</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">FUN = MIRACLES</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Dear Family and Friends,</span></strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Our week has been fantabulous here in King's Lynn! Weather's treating me well as well. So that's a great news. :D</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've seen lots of miracles this past week. One of them is our Filipina investigator and her British husband! Most of A****e's family in the Philippines are Latter-day Saints (she even has a cousin who's serving a mission in Australia right now). When she came here in England around 2013, her family told her to go to a Mormon church here in the UK. She bumped into some sister missionaries, went to church here in King's Lynn for few times and when she came back to the Philippines, lost contact with them.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Me and Sister Ishizawa decided to review our area book and to contact people who are listed there and we found A****e's record. We rang her number and no one answered it so we decided just to pop by to her home. We tried to knock on her door but no success either. We planned to stop by again another day. We were out talking to people (I forgot what day was it) when we stopped this Filipina lady, and yes, a miracle, that's the lady that we were searching for! We visited her in her home and invited them to church. Yesterday, A****e and her husband along with their little kid attended church and they even accepted a baptismal date for next month! Wow. I really know that the Lord is in this work. He provides a way for His children to be able to receive the fullness of His blessings and I am so grateful to be able to be a part of this work right now. Everyone in the ward, including our bishop, were so excited when they saw that family at church yesterday and they all want to come teaching with us! Wohooo!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Another miracle.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As a mission, one of our focus for 2015 is to work with part-member families. Me and Sister Ishizawa went through our ward's list and with the help of our ward mission leader, identified few people that we are going to work with.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We were invited for a dinner by one of these families, so blessed huh! Tom has been to church few times and is currently investigating the church. Long story short, during the lesson, the spirit was so strong and we extend a baptismal date with him for the 25th of this month. He accepted it and everyone was so happy about it! In fact, he came to church again yesterday and stayed after for a baptismal service. I asked him after that, "Tom, are you excited for this to happen to you as well?" He answered, "Yes, Sister Ordanza! I can't wait!"! We are going to see him again tonight in a family home evening.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am so excited for these people to take upon themselves the name of Christ.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Til next week,</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Konichiwa!!! Woooooooooooh! I love my new companion! Sister Ishizawa is amazing! #AsianFTW</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am learning so much from her. Together, I know that we'll see a lot of miracles here in the blessed land of King's Lynn.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><div>
Our area is soooooooooo huge and it's so pretty! #CountrySide</div>
<div>
And oh btw, they have almost the same accent with peepz in Kettering so it's good to be back! :D</div>
<div>
Ohmydays. On transfers day, we travelled from London to here for soooooo long. I thought that we're going to a different country! lol</div>
<div>
The ward is amazing as well! Man, missionaries here are so spoiled. Free groceries EVERY WEEK. Crazy huh? :D</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I don't know what to say in this email. haha</div>
<div>
Well, first of all, sorry for not emailing yesterday, Mother. :D I know you've waited for me but it wasn't our PDay. We've had zone interviews. Sorry!</div>
<div>
We've had the privilege of watching the Meet the Mormons after our interviews yesterday which was so cool!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Church was awesome as well. Members are so nice. Loads of appointments with investigators and recent converts and less-active members. Man, I promise, I'm still breathing. :D</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ohmydays. This email is so crazy. Probably because I'm so hungry. Haven't had lunch yet. lol</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Oh, the Filipino Elder already arrived, Sister Maico! Wohooooo! And guess what, they MIGHT open a Filipino branch in Hyde Park in London (not sure when)! And we'll all get called to serve there. Yeah, TAGALOG SPEAKING!!!! Wohoooo!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
K. For serious stuff, we started this year with three confirmations! How amazing was that? They were Sister Ishizawa's and Sister Steele's investigators. :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am just so excited to talk to everyone here in King's Lynn. EVERYWHERE. haha It feels like home.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Okay. My mind is going to shut down in few seconds so....</div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Dear Family and Friends,</b></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">How was your Christmas? WAS IT FUN WITHOUT MEEEEEE? :p</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My first and only Christmas in the mission field was really fabulous! We visited a lot of people, members (recent converts and less-actives) and few of our investigators (as most of them are not around due to holidays season).</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I definitely won't forget this Christmas as I focused more on the spirit of our Saviour and giving my time and energy for the sake of other people. I love it so much!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Well,as you've read in my subject line today, yes, I am moving <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1352606029" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span> to one of the coldest area (or perhaps the coldest one) in this mission. I'm going up north! Exile mode. lol</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I will be in Kings Lynn with Sister Ishizawa. She is from Japan! (I think I sent some photo of me and her before with Sister Som who's from Cambodia). I am so excited to be there with her. I bet we'll have a lot of fun and success! :)</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We've had a little bit of snow here this week. Well... Me and Sister Quinn died. What do you expect from a Filipino and Arizonian in this British weather? :D</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am so sad to leave St. Albans. This is one of the best areas that I've ever been! The ward is so great and people are warm and friendly. Oh well! Heavenly Father has a plan for me there in Kings Lynn.</span></div>
