August 13th Email
What a great week:-) Hahaha I didn't even know that the olympics was over!!! Something I have found really endearing about The English is they really do love their country. Everywhere we go the people are watching The Olympics, although it's kind of frustrating with the work. But your right dad, they supported their Atheletes. I Loved hearing from you guys:-) Those are some Pictures from last wednsday! that was Amazing. England is so Beautiful. So you guys are Loving living without us kids there??? Nice! Oh, I had a dream last night that Mom was going to have a baby haha. i have the weirdest dreams now. Like I had this Dream that me, and Elder jones were trying to teach somebody but zombies were chasing after us. Crazy life. There are so much crazy things that happen on Missions... :-)
Well, sad to hear everyone is sick with the whoop. I threw up the other week, I ate a bunch of cereal right before bed and then like an hour later in bed woke up with a massive stomache ache and then it all went downhill from there haha. Me, and Elder jones are getting a lot closer. He is a super awesome companion. He played Starcraft!!!!!!!!!!
The Work was good this week, I feel like we could have done a lot better with member lessons. But this week that's what we are focusing on, and Faith. That is something we have been thinking about, we can accomplish The impossible with Faith. It is also a Struggle getting people to church. But I guess where there is a will there is a way:-)
One of our investigators went to The Temple, And LOVED it. He is so solid. He helped a girl Teach her Primary class yesterday, and thought that was really nice. Our other investigator is still in The Hospital, We need to Promise him some blessings. We have these really nice older Woman we are teaching, they are doing really good. The Worlk With the less-actives is going really well too for us. The Lords hand is Definitely working here.
Well sorry this is short, I Love you guys. I say this all the time, But I have The Best Family in the world. i was looking at the pictures of jordan and jess, it made me so happy. talk to you soon. TRUE LOVE

Hello!!!!
Getting letters/Emails just makes me so happy! Thank you! I Love you Guys! I Love The Pictures Jess! Elder Jones is a lot like Jordan, so it makes me happy:-)But He Loves Shania twain, and celine dion too though!!! hahahah Such an awesome guy. Before I forget, I have had squishy peas dad, I like them:-) And Leicester is similiar to nottingham, it's definitely not the posh part of England hahahaha.... But I wouldn't have it any other way!!! So wow. One of our investigators told us that he is going on a Mission. Can you Believe that? Do The Blessings of a Mission ever end? He told Me, and Elder Jones that he wants us to go to The Temple with him as well. Man..... So Amazing. Someone I am able to help bring into The Kingdom of God wants to share The Gospel with others. He sees The Blessings of God, and how much Happiness can be found. I was with Elder Setu for just a little bit the other day, he is such an Amazing Missionary. I am surrounded by Amazing, and Inspiring Missionaries.
I learned a little bit more on how The Spirit works sometimes. On Sunday We went to go visit one of our investigators in Hospital, and read some Scriptures with him, and just tried to help him out. And as we were leaving I thought about how The Saviour taught to visit The Poor, and Afflicted. On our numbers it may have not looked like we did anything with him. But then I thought to myself, "How did The Saviour spend his time?" The next day in our district meeting guess what we talked about? How to best spend our time, and i was able to share the things I learned! One of my Favorite things ever is being a Vessel so I can say what The Lord would say if He were there. And Like Alma says in Chapter 36, it is not out of "Worthiness" of myself. It's just The Blessings of God.
Sariah, your Email made me Feel The Spirit very Strongly. Thank you. Yesterday we got to talk to a Romanian guy who is inactive, he was awesome! He gave us some weird fruit thing that slightly looked like a dog poo but somehow tasted like a jelly filled doughnut! It was super Good! Oh yeah haha, I didn't get Transfered Nor Elder Jones!!!!! :-) I am really glad I get to stay here for at least 6 more weeks:-) I wish you guys could meet The Abley family as well. Brother Abley is one of the most Amazing people in thwe world. He literally spends his days just helping people. He is so awesome.
I am glad Mom is doing better. I will keep Praying for you. Steroids hahahahaha. I had a good laugh at what Sariah said:-) Ummm... What to say? Oh! hahaha! We are getting another lady ready to be Baptised! We are being so blessed. We have 4 people who are preparing. I will do my best to help them. But there is this lady Val, who is 62. Really nice lady, she needs to quit smoking but I know she can do it with the Help of The Lord. We were teaching her, and she turned to me and said "I would marry you if I were younger!" So that was slighlty akward hahaha. But we had a kid who is leaving this week on his Mission to Scotland/Ireland Invite her to be Baptised so that was really powerful.
We are going to be Spending The day in Bradgate park with an investigator. It is such A Beautiful place. I wish you guys could see. It is literally just like Paradise. Thanks for telling me about Mission Prep Dad:-) Maybe what you can do is make up an Investgator for these Kids so they can work with and Teach them? That's what we did in The MTC and it helped a ton. Does that make sense? haha. Well, I Love you guys. A lot. Go out and Make this world A better place. Speak to you soon.
TRUE LOVE

It's funny that you brought that Scripture up mom. I have learned a lot about that on my Mission so far, I will have to explain it in person though haha. That is so awesome to hear about Bonnie, and Wang. This week has been all over the place but So good. It was quite hot this week... But it's cooling down:-) The clouds, and sunsets here are so wonderful. Our one investigator is doing so good, he has had some oppostion from his family, so we gave him a blessing and ever since then he has been on fire. Like yesterday at church, It's hard to explain. Were working with this less active who has severe special needs, and is bipolar. So I was super stressed out with it afterr church. And the other investigator could tell I was having a hard time and he just took me aside and made sure I was alright, and told me "Just remember why your here" Man, I Love him! I wish you guys could meet him.
Another of our investigators is in London at The Hospital, but I know all will be well according to Faith. I Love that guy. We have had some bike issues these last couple of weeks but it's all good. We found this guy who is from nigeria who said he will get Baptised on September 22nd if he gets an answer that The Book of Mormon is True after he prays. So that will be Amazing. today I got to go to a bird place with Brother wright, that was super cool, but The Amazing thing that happened was on the way there. We listened to this talk on The meaning of The Atonement from President skeousen. Wow. You guys need to listen to it. it awakened something in me, I can't really describe it. Like I would never want to stop doing Missionary work like Dad described. This is my life, and I Love it so much. I have left The World behind, that is such a freeing thing I wish I could describe but I'm sure you guys know what I mean:-) The longer I'm out the better I feel, and The better I feel The harder I work. The harder I work the more Blessings come. My Mission couldn't be any better. I'm so honored to be serving in England. I Love you all. Have a good week.
TRUE LOVE
Sincerely, Elder Wilson
