Hello Everybody,
So Valentines day was just like any other day which I don't mind too much. I kinda forgot that it was actually. Then I saw all the people standing outside Tube Stations with Balloons shaped like hearts and Roses. Oh well. So my address is the mission home address just send stuff there I will get it when I come into the office. Bad News I am being emergency transferred. I am going to Stevenage (outside of london :( Not too excited about it because I just sort of got to know this place and the members. But it wasn't meant to be I am being sent back out. No worries though I'm not too far and I might move in another 3 weeks so we'll see when it happens. Thank you for the Journal prompts I really can't think of anything to write especially since I am moving and this place has been slowly starting to pick up a bit.
One thing I saw this week was The outside of the Royal Albert Hall which is right next to the chapel and I walked around it and thought ( I want to perform there someday)
One Thing I heard this week was the things you hear people speak in London. Not English. They Speak Portugese French German Hindi Tamil Arabic Urouba ebo zulu polish russian latvian Mandarin Chinese japanese and about 40 other languages.
One Thing I have smelled this week was a Multi Stake youth dance HAHA So basically the masking of sweat caused by dancing in a non air conditioned building with cheap cologne/perfume. Oh the chosen generation, how they make our nose hairs burn.
One Thing that I have tasted this week was Ben's Cookies. A warm gooey chocolate chip cookie from the master chefs at Ben's. I treated myself to something real nice. And I hope to do so in Celebration again sometime.
One Thing I touched this week was The Scars of The Victoria Albert Museum. Caused by the bombings of World War II the damage can still be seen on the museum and it reminds those of us who live now, that it has been given to us by those who fought then.
I will let you know if anything exciting and great happens as I go to my new area. I Need to send you my memory Card or cards. So that way I can use up another full card before I finish. I hope that you are all feeling better and that things are going well for you. Remember I will speak to you on mother's day in Three months and then it will be an month and a half and you'll see me again.
With Love

Hey Misty and Family
That is great that Dad came down to visit. Man I wish Dad took us shopping. Reminds me of Bill Cosby. "Money for the Children....well five children came out of nowhere shhooom. I asked my father for a nickel for the school picnic he would tell me his life story of how he ate dirt for thirty years and he was thankful to eat that dirt." Anyways. That is great that the Kids and Dad had a great time. This week has been my first week in my new area Hyde Park. We have a lot of work to do to get this place going. It has been very difficult leaving London North, I loved that place and didn't really want to go. So I have been a bit distraught but nonetheless this place is great as well. We are doing a lot of Finding to find new investigators so hopefully we will be teaching a lot soon. Not much else is going on for us here. It is great to hear from you and keep me posted. I am living with another missionary companionship. The portugese speakers and one of them is from Mexico. HA Man so many Nacho Quotes flying around. "Don't you wanna little taste of da glory see what it tastes like. I don't believe in God I believe in Science. They think I don't know a butt load of crap about the gospel but I DO!." Okay I'm done now. Take care With Love

Hey Guys,
Yes the flat is all sorted and we are doing very well here in North London. I sent my SD card a while back, about six months ago it is black and its about 6gb. I hope you got it. It had all my pictures from Ilford (My second area) and I am in my 4th area now. Let me know. Thats cool that Kyley and Julie came over. I wonder where they went. I'm not sure If I could see them but I don't know If I would be able to handle it, I would probably get homesick and it would be hard for a week or two. It's okay I have waited this long, I can wait another 8 months. We met a lady who came to church for the first time last week. Her name is Mojgan (she's from Iran) and She wants to learn more about the gospel and about the church. We met her this week to get to know her and find out more about her. She is here in England with her daughter who is studying. We can't teach her unless she is seeking residence outside of her country because it would be dangerous for her to know the truth and be baptised because of the anti christian feelings there. So we asked her where she plans on going after England and she said america. We asked her where and she said Utah. We were astonished and asked why, she said she has family there (we later found out one of her in laws is a member) and She said there is a big church a really big building she wants to go to. We explained that it is the temple and taught her. We then taught her about modern day prophets. She was so amazed at a modern day prophet and she was so excited and just wanted to learn more. She is a great lady and I hope we can teach her and help her gain a testimony. I just hope that we can explain to her about her country situation and what would happen. We will speak to her about it tomorrow and explain. But the work here is going very well. It is so great to know how amazing the gospel is, remember as you share it think about it, we actually have a prophet of god on earth today and we actually have the original church of Jesus Christ on the earth today as well. We don't really know what we have, until we share it with someone else. Keep being amazing.
With Love

Hello Everyone
Yes things are going better for me here in London. This first week has been a tough one. I got to the flat with Elder Zwane my new companion from South Africa on Monday. He is a great guy and a very hard worker. He has been out for 3 months and just finished his training with his companion. Who just finished and went home. So when I got to the flat it was really dirty and untidy, I don't think Elder Zwanes companion liked to clean up after himself. Anyway we didn't have money until Wednesday and I had no hygiene or anything. They didn't plan for the week and we had a few appointments but for the most part Poor Elder Zwane wasn't sure what to do or where to go because his companion was tired of finding and they didn't do much the past month. Then our heater broke and it was cold in the flat and I was a bit stressed with all the things we had to do. I didn't know anybody or anywhere and so it was a tough first 3 days. Now we have fixed the heater, bought cleaning supplies, threw out junk and vacuumed mopped and scrubbed the bathrooms kitchen and living room area. This is the largest flat that I have been to in my mission and the most untidy. But now we have taken care of it and we both know the area better and are making progress with what we are doing and where we need to go for certain things. Tough week but me and Elder Zwane really get along great and we are both excited for this next 6 weeks. He is a great missionary and I am excited to be here with him. We have had so many laughs already, I will send you pictures and videos and whatnot soon. Today we are going to visit Camden Town. Lots of interesting people and music. So that will be cool and then we will visit inner london a couple more times this month as well, I will tell of my adventures there later. Well Time is running a bit short and I got to write to everyone else. Hope you have a fantastic week.
Love
Elder Wilson

Hey Mom and Rick
Thanks for the update on everything. Thanks for getting me my liscense
pretty soon I will have a British one too. That was if I get pulled
over I just put on an accent give them that liscense and say I'm sorry
I'm a foreigner. That'll work right? I miss my Blu dog! I see dogs
all over and everyone says dogs hate you but I have had the great
experience with dogs and I have just missed my own. So today we had
moves calls and I am staying in Bury with my Greenie so I am glad and
that I will get to stay for at least one more transfer here in Bury.
But I gotta get out soon I am getting fat here. They feed us so much
and its such great food I am never hungry in Bury. Weather here has
been warm and dry and not a whole lot happening. that's okay though I
don't have a problem with it because soon it will become cold and
really wet. I only have to endure it one more time at least right. I
will make sure to bundle up and layer up. It's the only way to stay
warm here. That wet cold cuts you like a knife. I have learned alot
about being a district leader and helping out the other missionaries
in my district. it has been a good experience and I am glad I will
stay for a little while longer. After october 31 who knows where I'll
be. But I have really enjoyed these past 4 and a half months and I
just got to make the best of this last bury transfer. I love you guys
and I hope to hear from you soon
Love
Elder Wilson
Hey Misty and Everyone
No problem I do like studying now that I have been on my mission.
there's so much there to learn about it is really enjoyable to learn
and to learn how to teach. I have had a great time learning all the
things that I have. It has been such a great experience the past 14
months. Yes I am a district leader which means I am in charge of a
district ( In this case 2 wards and 3 sets of missionaries) And I do
things like hold a district meeting each week where there are
trainings to help us become better missionaries and I call in on
wednesdays fridays and sundays to get the weekly reports on how they
are doing as well as how the work is going. I also meet with the rest
of the District leaders and the Zone leaders (Zone leaders are who we
report to and they report to president) for DLC which is a meeting
where we set goals and make plans to motivate and help our Zone
improve work and spirituality. It is a bit stressful but Zone leaders
have it much worse than I. I love going to church, because
when I finish I feel fed and I am ready for the week. Especially
during Sacrament meeting when we take the sacrament. That helps me out
so much and I don't know what I would do without it. It is so
important for me and it makes my week that much better. All the effort you put
in will pay off it just takes a long long time. Well I must email mom
and run, I am staying in Bury for another 6 weeks. I am super glad and
it will probably be my last time staying in Bury so I gotta make the
best of it. I hope you are doing well and you don't have too much on
your hands. I love you guys

Hey Everybody,
This week has been a bland week. Just working and not a whole lot happening. That's okay though no big deal. Weather has been really warm here lately and we havent had alot of rain in a long while. That proably means that we are overdue for some. We have had to start up our teaching pool again. It started to shrink again but what can you do. We are enjoying the time that we have here in Bury. Next week is transfers so hold on to anything until I say otherwise because I very well could leave. I hope not but you never know. I totally ripped my jeans doing service the other day and so I might need to get a new pair from you guys sooner or later. Misty if you have an I phone or I pad get the Gospel Library App and get Preach My Gospel and the Gospel Principles manual and it will help you to explain doctrine really simply. That is what we study and it's great to have that basis for teaching and understanding the gospel. It was like an Eye opener for me. I always knew it all it just didn't connect the way it does now. It just all of a sudden began to make sense. It was really amazing and teaching became a breeze. This week I learned about working hard is only hard the first 15 minutes then it just gets easy. The Most important time of day is the first few hours of the day it really gets you into the mode of getting things done that day. If you have a lazy morning chances are your day is going to be lazy. And heavenly father won't bring the elect to you unless you have a better morning or day. It's like earning referalls from heavenly Father. I also learned about how many people are prepared that are around the members. We have been asking the members for people to teach and each person has at least 2 or 3 people that are prepared if they are good missionaries. If they aren't you have to build their faith up and help them to believe and then they will see. It has been super fantastic and we have 2 new families in the ward. One of them is actually from Tuscon. Funny because we all have a Bash on Tuscon when we talk about it. Too hot to dry too brown. HAHA But isn't that most of Arizona. Well I must let my companion hop on this computer so I will talk to you next week on Tuesday.
Love
Elder Wilson
P.S. You give them permission to do dis to me. I look Hideous

Today is my Dad's birthday: Happy Birthday Dad!!
We are doing great here in Bury. We have had a crazy week and this week is going to be twice as crazy. This week we have a baptism and so we have to get everything all sorted out for that. We are super excited and we will enjoy the end of the week. As for right now we are just a little stressed. Training is going well and we are working hard, Elder Jensen is enjoying his mission ( I hope) and good times are rolling here. I can't believe August is almost over and september is right around the bend. In the mission time goes by like it's nothing. 3 months is like a couple of weeks. Weeks fly by so quickly that you do't know what hit you. I was looking for the other email I sent you but for some reason it has dissapeared from last week sorry I can't find it. Very strange indeed. It was just basically how we had a difficult week 2 weeks ago and that knocked us down for a moment but we are okay now. 3 things that have made me laugh this week, When we were at a less actives house we were talking about forgetting to call people and the conversation was interupted by the mom of the home telling her husband that the dog peed all over the floor, there was silence for a second then my companion, assuming we were still on the previous subject states, Yeah I do that all the time. We all looked at him and just busted up laughing. Needless to say I check the flat everynight to make sure he didn't have an accident. Then another bathroom humor story, Our toilet flusher broke right after I used it and It felt like dumb and dumber and I managed to take care of it and we have the landlord out today to fix it. And Finally at zone conference, me and Elder Rogers (is from Gilbert and has been out as long as me) Were quoting movies and we got onto, Chris Farley (I LIVE IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER) As well as Ramses! How are you! The orphans they love you. Your da best! I am super excited to watch some Nacho with Cooper when I get home so we can quote it and have some toast.

Hey Everyone
Training is a very different challenge but this first week has been pretty good so far. We have done a little bit of everything except teach our super solid investigators because for some reason everyone got sick. Bummer. But It will be fun to teach with him this up and coming week. I keep getting flashbacks of last year when I first started out. Man I was a terrible missionary and I was super scared of Finding my first 3 weeks. Now It's an everyday occurance and I just go out and work. I know what to do and I now enjoy doing it. I kinda know what I am doing now and I know how to have success. It's great but now I need to work on helping Elder Jensen Learn and grow and set him up for the rest of his mission. I haven't been too familiar with training and I realize sometimes that he doesn't know certain things that I have taken for granted with other companions like certain phrases refering to the lessons or finding or whatever it may be. But he is doing well and he is getting more comfortable with the work. A great thing that happened to us this past week was we met a lady that I had offer to help her carry her bags last week but she declined nicely. This week she spoke to us and we shared a short message with her on a bench. She felt the spirit and felt so good and she wants to meet with us again. We will see her tomorrow and teach her more about the gospel. It has been super amazing here in Bury. The worst was on Wednesday because we have been teaching this really intelligent lady but she's been a bit sceptical and she never gave us her phone number. We set the appt. But we couldn't get back from london in time from picking up Elder Jensen. Now we just pray that we will find her again. She was a great lady who was looking for the truth. Three Things that amaze me. (1) It hasn't rained in 5 days (2) Squirrels in the park climb up your leg and steal your lunch (3) How many religious people I have met in the past few days. In England it is absolutely unheard of. Haven't spoken to an atheist in a long time. I miss their grim and pessimistic look. These religious people are too happy. ;)

Hey Misty and Gang
I did get that Card you sent me. I love it. I remember you swallowing
the squeaker and me being quite distraght. It's okay I forgive you, it
kind of reminds me of Goofy Movie when goofie works at the kids
picture place. (OOOOO GIMME GIMME GIMME) And HE swallows the squeaker.
We'll have to watch that when I get back. HA. THis week has been a
really good week and we have been teaching people left and right. We
have 7 investigators now here in Bury which is a miracle and it has
been amamzing. I need to learn more about how we did that so that I
can do it again and see more amazing miracles. Me and Elder Tobia have
been doing great here teaching people and we have had a lot of good
laughs as well. The olympics have now officially started. I see a
little bit here and there in members homes when we come inside. But I
only have seen about 15 minutes total of it all. That's okay though I
will just watch it when I get home on the internet or if someone has
recorded it. I will give you some of the addresses for the blog as
well to open it up to some friends. Thank you so much. Your are the best!
Love

Hey Misty. Sounds Like you had a great time in San Diego. Hahaha I love how
people get all upset about stuff like that. I would like some weather like
that right now. This weather is crazy one day its 80 with sun and the next
day its 50 with wind and rain. Most of the time its cool and rainy. Summer
hasn't even established itself. It's quite a strange season here in england.
What can you do though right. Oh well. we have had a really great week here
in Bury. We have seen a lot of miracles and enjoyed the blessings of heaven.
We have been diligent and we have seen wonderful things happen. we have been
finding more people and just loving the time we have had when finding
people. We found 12 potential investigators as well as a new investigator
named Kamilla from Czech Republic. She has been studying the book of mormon
for about three months now and she is super prepared for the gospel. We are
going to have so much fun teaching her and I can't wait to see what more
miracles lie in wait for us. It's funny because it all comes down to our
faith and what our faith causes us to do. From our faith comes desires and
actions. If we work with all our Heart Might Mind and Strength we will see
the blessings of heaven. I am super excited for what the future has in
store. Some of my friends have tried to get on the Blog but for some reason
it's on Private. The Calls let me know about it, not sure if you know how to
fix it but I thought I would let you know. Thank you all for the Birthday
letters and cards. It really makes my day to read them and enjoy them and
the memories in them. Hope your week goes well
