Dear and family and friends!
I hope all is well back at home! Everything is going great over here!
Grimsby, well... it's Grimsby! I had this guy try to kiss me the other
day. We were just walking down the street and we stopped to talk to this

Grimsby, well... it's Grimsby! I had this guy try to kiss me the other
day. We were just walking down the street and we stopped to talk to this
guy...nothing out of the ordinary. We were talking to him for a while....
The next thing I know he put his arms around me and on my butt and tried
kissing me! It was straight up rape! Elder Clanton just stood there
laughing! I was so mad though! I guess everyone just reacts to the
spirit in different ways! It was funny though because the same thing
happened to Elder Clanton like 3 days later! After knowing what it
feels like and trying to be the better person, I at least tried
helping him and told the guy to get off him! But the guy was pretty
devoted so there was really nothing I could do! To be fair things like
this happen in Grimsby all the time! The only reason I don't write all
of them in my weekly letters is for the well being of my mother! In
all honesty though, I really do love it here in Grimsby! There are just
so many wonderful people and different cultures here and the ward just
feels like a family to me now! I don't know how other missionaries
feel, but before coming on my mission I just didn't think it was
possible to come to England and to feel the way I do about the people
here! I really have come to love them! I think that's one thing that I
am truly grateful that my Heavenly Father has helped me to understand
and have come to realize here on my mission! I read a scripture in Matthew
chapter 25 it states:
32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate
them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the
goats:
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye
blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye
gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee
an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my
brethren, ye have done it unto me
This scripture changed the way I see any body in the world today!
Anytime we reach out to assist and serve Heavenly Father’s children,
we are serving the master himself! This has brought a greater sense of
love into my life!
