June 11th Letter!!
Hello. How be you guys? First things first, I keep forgetting to
> tell you guys this!!! Jordan better hear this. The Preston Temple is
> built on Stone stuff from The Island Sardinia (not sure that's spelled
> right) Just thought you would like that. It's a Beautiful Temple.
> Happy Birthday to Cody, and McKell!!!! May the odds be EVA in your
> FAVA! :) Concerning Sariah's inquiry of the Level of silliness, we
> laugh A LOT. And we have this stuffed Bear that you can turn it's head
> inside out, and then it turns into a monster! So I always put it in
> Random places to freak Elder Zundel out, like on his bed, I tied it to
> some floss and had it connected to the ceiling right above his bed,
> and last night he wnt to the toilet, and he found a little friend
> already using it;-)
> But The work has been Amazing this week. The Lord really blessed
> us. We are Teaching a whole Family, The kid's want to be Baptised so
> we are working on that. And we found some really Amazing people. On
> saturday we found this guy he had been taught by Sister
> Missionaries like 5 or 6 years ago. Well, I will tell you the whole
> story one day, but Basically He has been Prepared By The Lord. He had
> a Book of Mormon but gave it to His Grandpa, so He was really excited
> to get another one. And He has been suffering from a rare disease,
> above all things with his Kidney's. It sounded pretty similiar to what
> I had but worse. But The Spirit was so Strong, we are meeting with him
> tomorrow. I Pray He can Feel The Spirit with all my heart. That's my
> biggest desire.
>> I think The Mitchell's have requested for
Friendship as well, and they will have pictures of me!:) If you see
> one of me not in Missionary atire.. haha. I can explain. We were
> cycling in a town called Whetstone purnounced wetstin. Which the "Wet"
> Is quite Ironic. Because it rained Like a Millsion gallons and they
> were our dinner appointment so they let us get dry:) It was insane
> though, I have never been so wet in my life! It was pretty cold haha.
> But We had a "Man Vs. Food" At the Mitchell's. I didn't disgrace
> TheWilson name is all I'm gonna say. Not only did I win, But The Only
> one To finish!!!!!!! Did I mention I'm Learning Humility?;) But yeah,
> you can see pictures of me when I'm there with them, and such. We are
> doing a mini Mission with warren from tuesday night to thursday
> afternoon.
> Man there are some pretty hilarious stories that come from being a
> Missionary. The other day we were doing something we call "Flog
> 10'ing" It's where if you get Flogged (Wrong Adress, not home, stood
> up, false adress etc.) You knock 10 doors in the area, Which really
> works, that's how we found Mathew. But anyway, We Were Doing the FLog
> 10 and we knock on this door, and this really old guy answers the
> door, and he is from poland, or Russia, or Latvia or something. But we
> told Him That we were sharing a Message about Jesus Christ, and his
> eyes lit up when we said that, and he started bowing to us multiple
> times. Then he stopped. His hands slowly went to the bottom of his
> shirt, and he started pulling his shirt up... I had no idea what to
> expect, I was about to be flashed by a 90 year old pole! So He got his
> shirt all the way up, and just above his pecs was a tatoo of Jesus,
> and Angels and stuff. I can't even describe how hard it was not to
> laugh. He let his shirt down, and started blowing us kisses, so we
> gave him some bows, and went on our way:)
> The Chav's think it is really funny to make fun of us... Aparrently
> it's hilarious that we wear Bike Helmets. They always yell and say
> "BIble Bashers!" It's pretty great. And one day we were cycling home
> and we were on a kind of desolate road around these massive farm
> fields and for some reason I was singing "Sleigh Ride" Haha. And I was
> singing i looked over at this kid in a car hanging out the window, and
> then he threw a pop can at me (which I dodged) then he proceeded to
> throw one at Elder Zundel which missed horribly. They then drove off
> screaming vulgarities at us. We had a pretty good laugh at that:) Most
> people are really nice though, really, they are:)
> Thank you for The Email Cody, You Strengthened me In The Lord. It
> was great. And Sariah, from your letter. Daily life is pretty much,
> talk to EVERYONE, Ride your bike to an appointment, talk to everyone,
> Ride your bike to an Appointment, repeated over, and over. But that
> being said, It never feels the same, It feels new everyday. Everyday
> is a completely new Adventure. That C.S. Lewis Quote about Love is So
> True. True Love is Everything in this work. I'm not trying to be a
> salesman, But a servant to of The Lord. What I'm telling people is
> like John 7:17.
> I have also felt Impressed to share what I have Learned/Felt in
> studying this week. You know that box in Mr. Magorioms wonder
> Emporium? We are like that box. It could do Absoulutely Nothing until
> someone had Faith in it. But When it did have Faith in it, it could do
> ANYTHING. It's Important to have Faith from someone else in us, but to
> have it in ourselves, Most Importantly to know that God does. He NEVER
> Leaves us alone. Please read Pres. Uchtdorf's talk on the why of
> Priesthood Service. We are Never, Ever Alone. And we can do hard
> things Because of The Atonement of Jesus Christ. I was reading Ether
> 12, and I often just read Verse 27. But That verse is so much more
> powerful if you know why The Lord said it. Moroni Felt weak, like he
> wasn't up to the task because he couldn't write very well. Look at the
> things he did through The Lord. How many people gained a Testimony
> becasue of reading Moroni 10?
> I Love you guys so much. Each week I look back on the previous
> week, and feel that i was so much weaker the week before. I can't
> really explain it... But I am Growing. My Faith In God Is so Much
> stronger. Like Jacob said "I could not be shaken" I won't be shaken
> from My Faith. I'm not alone in this. Thank you McKell for The
> letters:) They help A lot:) And thank you for The Emails, and Letters
> from the rest of you. They help more than you know. But Above all,
> your Prayers help the Most. You have no idea how much Your Prayers do
> for me.
> The Jubilee was Amazing by the way. Don't listen to people when
> they say English Food is bland! The pastries, and Everything are
> AMAZING.
> Guys. Do Temple Work, Do Family Hsitory work. It's no different
> than what I;m doing. Please make goals to find people living, and dead
> who NEED The Gospel, And we NEED The Experience that comes from it.
> Keep Listening to The Music guys:-) Charity NEVER Faileth! It's TRUE
> LOVE.
> WIth Lots
> of Love, Elder Wilson
