Sister Chloe Jeppson- Leeds England Mission : New Kid on the Block

Hiya everyone!!!

Update: My British companion has been influencing me a little too much and I am starting to pick up her accent on some words haha. It's actually amazing. She is from down South, so it's a posh accent, which is completely different than any other accent up here, but it's fun:)

This week was absolutely crazy. I have no time for anything these days. But it is so amazing!

As for the title, I am the new kid on the block these days because I am DRIVING NOW!! Woot woot!! I had my two hour driving practice on Tuesday and can now drive. It has been so fun!! The driver instructor said I did really well at judging the distances especially because I am used to driving on the right side of the road but its flipped here. The roundabouts are a little scary, I won't lie, but it's so fun!!! I love it:)

Here's some other highlights:

-we went to a trampoline park for pday which was really fun. It was a small one and there was a bunch of little kids but hey we had fun

- went to a Japanese restaurant for Valentines day

-had Valentines dinner at the Portugese families house, they made us salted cod. It is one of the most famous dishes in Portugal

-was recommended to put bleach in the washing machine to get rid of the gross smell... did it...20 mins later, it starts foaming out of the machine and all the power goes out in the flat...the smell of bleach was so strong that we moved out mattresses into the study room, barricaded ourselves, opened all the windows and had a fan on. Yep, we froze, but hey we survived. and yep, we are getting a new washing machine haha

-Went on exchanges with the Hull sisters!! I was in Hull with Sister Hritz and it was so much fun!! We had a really busy day and i was just really cool

-went to a Senior Moments activity, which is for people 65+ and we just played games, sang, had a spiritual thought, and visited. I forgot something and an 80 year old told me I had a ''Senior Moment'' haha woops

-So I don't know if I have said anything about it, but the Scottish people LOVE Irn Bru. It's a orange soda that tastes like bubblegum. It's actually really good, we always had it at the Dunn's house. But anyways, at the Senior Moments, one of them taught me the song for Irn Bru and we sang it in front of anyone. The difference being his thick Scottish broad to mine nonexistent Scottish broad, but it was fun.

-went to go help some friends paint their ceiling. But we got there and they wanted us to paint their white cieling, white haha. There were like 3 spots but they needed the whole thing redone. We couldn't tell where we started and stopped but they loved it so yea

-Went to York on Saturday to take the sisters there for a treat and a study! Needless to say, York is probably one of my favorite places in all of England so far. Just the cutest city ever.

Overall, the past three weeks have been the busiest weeks of my mission. It might not sound like it, but there's just so many things going on and things I have to do, and it's crazy. But what has been so beautiful to see is how much God is helping me. I couldn't do any of it without Him. And I have truly been able to walk with my Savior. My testimony has just grown so much and I know that the Lord is leading the work here and bringing so many beautiful children into the fold. I have seen God's hand in my life every single day and I am so grateful to be a missionary!!

Love,

Sis Jepp:)
