Great miracles

Dad,
Elder Weitzel's English is perfect. He studied in Leeds like 2
years ago anyways! Also, guess #1 was right on Google Earth. The
flat is finished now and there are 6 flats in it and we live in number
6. So its the middle one in that picture you sent. But I promise it
looks nicer than the picture. I'm glad that Jeff's talk was good and
that he is doing well. Sounds like everyone is getting adjusted to
being home and stuff. They'll all be into school pretty soon.
Suckers!!! Haha. Well this week has been really amazing. Me and
Elder Weitzel work really well together and both want to see some
great miracles. The Lord has been sending us some great ones as well.
I don't have too much time so I'll share a few with you. So we are
in a university area so we talk to a lot of younger people and a lot
of girls as well. Its always a little bit awkward and I'm not super
comfortable doing it but its makes it easier that I'm just a
messenger. So I was talking to this girl last week and she said that
she was a little interested but she didn't really know much about God
and she was not really convinced that she should let us come over. It
was weird because even though she was saying no she kept talking to
me. Eventually she said that we could come by and see her but as I
was writing down her information she seemed kind of nervous. She
said, "I shouldn't really be doing this, why am I doing this?" And
then I looked at her and said something I've never said before. I
looked her dead in the eye and said, "So why are you doing it?" That
could have gone really bad but I felt the Spirit really strong and she
said that her life is kind of breaking down right now and that she
feels maybe this could help her. I testified to her and her eyese
started watering. It was really powerful. She canceled the
appointment but said we could come back at a different time. It was
exciting. I'm about to get kicked off the computer but I'll log back
on and try and write another quick letter.
Mum,
I'm at a loss for words, Hannah is coming to England?!?! Is
she going to the London South Mission? Do you think she'll be doing
special work there with giving tours to visiters? She speaks Arabic
so maybe that has something to do with it. That's incredible. I can't
believe it! This week has been really really good here. Elder
Weitzel is a blast and speaks perfect English which just makes things
even funner! We've been saying funny stuff in German all week as
well. Things are picking up in the area as well and we saw some great
miracles. We are teaching a woman from Western African (Guinee) and
she speaks French. With all the diversity in the ward we were still
struggling to find someone who would be able to come with us to teach
her in French but then a miracle happened. We sat down with her at
church on Sunday and this African family sat in front of us. After
the meeting I introduced myself to them and asked where they were from
praying they would be from French speaking western Africa (which was
pretty likely), sure enough they said they were from Congo and then
you should have seen our investigator's eyes light up! They started
speaking in French and the family said that this was the perfect and
best church and that she should join. They asked where she lived and
it turns out that they live right next to her! They offered the get
her phone number and we are gonna start teaching her over there in
French!!!! It was so exciting, it was neat too because they said it
all in French and I understood it! Haha! Funny things funny things.
We also had a zone conference and it was given by the MTC President's
in Preston, President and Sister Walker. Sister Walker is the daughter
of President Hinckley! It was really good and uplifting, I loved it!
Oh and I got a call from Mike this week! He's going to Ghana!?!?!!!?!
I can't believe it! Did you know he's going to the Ghana MTC as
well?! It's crazy go nuts! I don't know what else to say this week
but it was a good one and I love it. I'll share one last experience
that was pretty neat. So the Leeds 1 uni team is teaching some people
from Brazil and last night Elder Griffiths came in and said that his
friend wanted me to talk to her in Portuguese. So he hands me the
phone and I had a total conversation in Portuguese! It was only 2 or
3 minutes but it neat that I was able to understand and communicate
completly in a different language. Good times. Well I love you mum,
take care of yourself and I'll talk to you next week! Love you
Elder Rowley
ps- Did you figure out anything about BYU. I looked a little and I
