May 25,2015- I'm staying in DUNDEE!!


at our stake conference with sister Wilkison and Lila and bishop brown. Mom here -- sorry she didn't give me the names of the elders. This is her old companion sister wilkinson. Sister Reed her companion now was taking the picture. These are people she new and baptized from her last area.

HIYA!
I hope you all had a great week this week!
First of all I'm staying in Dundee! :D And Sister Reed is still my companion! Yay

Secondly, I get to see Elder Holland! He's coming next week to Edinburgh and is giving a devotional for all the missionaries!!!! SO COOL! He'll be here on the 6th! :DDD

It has been a good week though. We've had a lot of blessings. We saw one of our investigators that has been trying to get off the drugs but we lost contact with him cuz his mom said he was back on them and she kicked him out. But we ran into him at a bus stop in this crazy city! And we were actually super late for an appointment with his mum, but if we hadn't been late we wouldn't have seen him. Not to mention I've never seen his eyes so clear, usually they're pretty glazed over. So that was cool. AND! There is a charity shop here in the Wellgate (which is basically just a mall) that's for deaf people! It's called Deaf Hub. Not sure why, but Sister Reed and I are totally volunteering there and are going to meet some awesome deaf people and I'm so excited!!

I've been studying 2 Nephi 3 which testifies about the BoM and Joseph Smith because one of recent converts has had a lot of questions and some doubts about those two things and reading that chapter has strengthened my testimony of them. I testify that if you want to know if this gospel is true, that the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that Joseph Smith was a prophet study the BoM. I read something that says we should start study with a prayer. write down questions and choose a specific block of scriptures to read then answer the questions as you read. Pray again and ask God to help you understand more deeply the things He wants you to know and then read that block of scripture again, revise answers and then pray at the end to know if it's true. My mind was blown when I read that! Because study truly needs to be us communicating with God frequently. I have loved doing this and I find myself understanding more and feeling the spirit more in my study. I love the Book of Mormon and this gospel and I testify that it bring us everlasting happiness.

Have a good week all!
love, Sister McBride
