As I have had the opportunity to learn about
the church history here in England, my thoughts have often been turned to my
time as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While
my mission was not the full 18 months because of health reasons, I am so
grateful to have been able to serve my Heavenly Father. I am grateful that,
like those early missionaries, I was able to preach what I know to be true to
my brothers and sisters who don’t have the truth. My mission taught me a lot of
things and the main thing was that everything happens in the Lord’s timing. His
timing is better than anything we could ever dream for ourselves and if we are
patient, He comes through every time. I may never know every reason why I was
sent to Kennewick, Washington or why I had to come home early. I am sure the
early missionaries here in Britain never knew the reach of their efforts
either. I know though that I did and accomplished what the Lord wanted me to
and I did it with my heart, might, mind, and strength. I am grateful to have
been able to go to all of these church sites and to have felt of the joyful
spirit there. I know that this church is God’s only true church on the earth
today and I am grateful eternally for its restoration.
