Newcastle Emlyn, Wales - January 19, 2015

hey everyone!

So lots of miracles this week. me and my companion a couple weeks back were talking to this guy and he was soooo cool...like completely golden....totally elect! anyway he told us like his life story and how he thought there was more somewhere to life but just could not find it; that's where we got excited and thought, why yes there is...its called the gospel haha :) he turned us down though and walked away and we were pretty disappointed because he was just so cool. so we decided to knock some doors for a bit one day and BOOM! we knock on his door! we were stunned! this time we got a return appointment and he was more willing to listen which was a miracle. sooo happy for that. We also found two other investigators in that same area all within like a few doors of eachother! wow!

I have loved being here and i have learned so much. i have especially learned how to be more bold with people. one example: we were teaching this guy named Gareth and he was asking some questions, he had read a lot and seemed pretty interested. at the end of our lesson we asked to see him again and he said, "well you can come back around, but i am not looking to be converted and i know that that is your job as missionaries." we explained to him that our purpose was just to invite others to learn of Christ. he then said, "yeah but conversion is like your ultimate goal right? I'd like to learn but i just am not going to go there; I'm pretty stubborn." i then proceeded to say, "well your in luck because i am stubborn too so we'll see you Tuesday at 6" haha :) totally got the return appointment :) haha it was just really funny!

But time is flying way too quickly here!!! its just seems like a flash! transfers are a week from today all ready! so crazy!! we got a tiny amount of snow the other day...like three snow flakes haha and my companion was so excited since it had been years since she had seen any that she had to do a snow angel and we built a tiny snow sister (since we put my tag on it, it had to be a sister) and then told her to go preach repentance to all the rest of the snow in wales haha :) good times! everyone freaks out though if there is barely even frost on the windows and they all slow way down on the roads and stuff. i just want to yell, "THIS ISN'T EVEN REAL SNOW PEOPLE!" amateurs don't know what they are doing haha :)

For district meeting we had a onesie party the other day too so i will send pictures. oh and other pictures are just one of the castles we have gone to :) haha love you all!

love Sister Rasmussen
