Sister Chloe Jeppson- Leeds England Mission : Never-Ending Miracles!!!

Hiya!!! Hope this week was amazing for all of you as it was for me! Probably one of my favorite weeks I have been a missionary so far just because I have felt so much joy and have been SO HAPPY that I am a missionary. I think I could be here for the rest of my life doing this. jk, I miss my family. but the moments that I have had this week do make me feel just so so so so so happy!!

Soooooooo, let's get to it:

Here's all the background info for the week:

-transfers happened!!! I now have a brand new companion, and her name is Sister Flake and I absolutely love her!! She is from Arizona and is just the sweetest. It has truly been a joy to be with her and I am so excited for this transfer with her

-pday we went to Durham and played ping pong and got burritos with our district for a last hurrah before transfers happened

-talked to A TON of people this week which was so fun!!

-took Sister Flake whiteboard finding in town for the first time

-helped out with the Poppy Appeal again this week and had rememberance day and rememberance Sunday

here are the miracles that happened:

Miracle Uno:

- randomly (definetely not random at all, only by God), we ran into a member in town who hadn't been to church in a LONG time. He wasn't super interested...yet...but a miracle nonetheless

Miracle Dos:

-we did service for this sweet couple that take care of this park and they were so nice and told the council of Darlington about us, and they are super impressed with the church and the missionaries which is so cool!! Always a miracle to be recognized by others for good

Miracle Tres:

-We have been trying to get in contact with our sweet friend Linda for the past like month and a half but haven't been successful. Then decided to go by randomly one day and saw her!! We were able to talk for a while and then set up a return appointment with her.

Miracle Cuatro:

- We put our friend Brian on date for baptism!! It was the coolest lesson. Brian is a member's friend and we have been teaching him for the past month or so. He is so awesome and is almost completely done reading the Book of Mormon. Whats so cool is that he isnt very well off and has been in a rut in his life because he cant find any work and its been really hard for him. But since he started reading the Book of Mormon, he has had an influx of jobs come in and he works almost every single day now!! He told us how he knows its someone looking out for him, and i know that too! We had a lesson with him about faith, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end and I felt prompted to ask, ''What is your next step Brian?'' He said, ''I am not sure''. And I felt the Spirit SO STRONGLY prompt me to say that I know his next step is baptism and invited him to be baptized! And he said yes!! It was so cool and such a testimony builder to me. I just love this gospel and have seen it change Brian's life for the better:)

Miracle Cinco:

-we worked at the Poppy Appeal stand for four hours, and we were working with this sweet mom called Yvonne. And she said she wasn't interested really in taking lessons, but then she proceeded to ask us question after question after question. It was really cool! She has three young kids so it makes sense (kinda) why she says she is busy, but she was for sure interested because she asked the best questions and we had a really good conversation with her:)

Miracle Seis:

-two of our friends came to church, and two returning members came to church which was HUGE!!!! It was so cool and they all loved it:)

It was just such a good week and ya!!

Love you all!!

Love,

Sis jepp:)

Last hurrah with Sister Thuernagle at Kaspas!

Yep, that's a Reeses peanut butter waffle, full of sugar and yummy goodness, but
probable not worth it because you can only eat 3 bites before you want to throw up :)
