This is it

Dear family and friends,

I am full of gratitude. The time I have spent in England as a

missionary for The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints has

been fantastic. My most cherished memories will be with the friends I

have made!! I feel so blessed and will forever remember my time here.

Some know some don't know, but like most missionaries, I had a rough go

from time to time. I can honestly say it has been the friends I have made

who lifted me up and made it possible for me to keep pushing. It was

right when I needed them most that I meet them. Jack Gore, heroic boy,

saved me. Grace Williams is like my 3rd mum! Adam and Mary Jane, my new

family. There are many more and I wish I had time to tell you all about

them.

This last week has been crazy. I was able to to teach Antoinette on

Tuesday with Jack and Elder Walker and Sister Turvey. I know God loves

his children. I can't even describe how special Antoinette is. She is

so faithful and happy. I can't wait for her to be baptised!!

Antoinette knows I love her so I won't say much more.

I have written about Katrina and Amiee before. I really really really

love them. They both came to watch General Conference. We watched Sunday morning

session. I am speechless. I have never had a sadder goodbye. I

never expected to make such good friends in such a sort amount of

time. Looking forward to future memories!

Thursday I went to the temple with Athena, Jack, Jack, Eder Pitcher, Elder Ward, Brianna. It was amazing. Spiritual and just a perfect ending.  

I will end with my testimony. I know that God is real, and his love ❤️ is so perfect. As they say, 'He knows me better' and I can say he does know us. Recently someone asked who the most influential person is in my life, excluding Heavenly Father Jesus Christ or the Holy Ghost. It took me a bit but the answer is Jospeh Smith! He was a prophet. He saw God the father and his son Jesus Christ. The church of Jesus Christ has been restored. All this stuff means that we can be happy and find joy and have peace and be able to have hope. Life can be GOOD. 

Enjoy the journey fam because life is great!!!!!

With extra love,

Elder Pilling
