Stories from Ruth # 25

 
This week was the very last week of the transfer! And I am moving to Chlemsford! This week I met the second Mexican I have ever seen in England, taught primary, and play football in Hatfield. On Wednesday we had a crazy busy day running to appointments which was good! We gave Simeon a Book of Mormon, had a lunch appointment and lesson with Sister Sim, and attended Ward counsel which we walked to. We had one lesson cancel which we were going to take a bus for, however the bus never showed up and then we get a call from our appointment asking if we could cancel that day and we agreed, because we both felt like there was somewhere else we needed to be. So we went finding and we found a young brazilian family and our mexican friend. On Thrusday we had exchange and I got lucky because we played football again with a recent convert and an investigator. 
I did not fall once! I only kept tripping people on accident!
This week's spiritual thought is:
Mosiah 4: 6 "I say unto you, if ye have come to a knowledge of the goodness of God, and his   
matchless power, and his wisdom, and his patience, and his long-suffering towards the children of men; and also, the atonement which has been prepared from the foundation of the world, that thereby salvation might come to him that should put his trust in the Lord, and should be diligent in keeping his commandments, and continue in the faith even unto the end of his life, I mean the life of the mortal body—
7 I say, that this is the man who receiveth salvation, through the atonement which was prepared from the foundation of the world for all mankind, which ever were since the fall of Adam, or who are, or who ever shall be, even unto the end of the world.
8 And this is the means whereby salvation cometh. And there is none other salvation save this which hath been spoken of; neither are there any conditions whereby man can be saved except the conditions which I have told you."

How fun that they found a Brazillian family and a Spanish man. I love that she gets to play football; funny! As a mission nurse years ago I would have some sprained ankles and sometimes broken ones due to the sports. It was mostly, basketball. The Mission President had played for BYU so he would play with the Elders that were close to the mission home on Mondays. I had concerns that they were too aggressive.
I loved those verses in Mosiah; they are powerful.
Hugs for Ruth!
