Sister
Harris is one of the funniest people! She really wanted to write something! So
as you can tell I am having a good time with my companions! These past two
weeks have gone a bit faster then before. I will just briefly tell you what has
been happening here in my life in Dublin. I am getting to know more people and
loving them. A woman named Babs in the ward, not sure if I have mentioned her
before but she is great. Last night I was talking to her and tell her that we
badly need to go shopping because I will be eating rice cakes for breakfast.
This morning she texted us and said "man can not live on rice cakes alone,
so I will be bringing you all breakfast". She brought us a feast. She
brought a loaf of bread, eggs, sausage, bacon, and loads of candy (she works at
Candbury). She took us out to eat last week to a very nice restraunt. She
really takes good care of the missionaries here. Another cool thing about her
is that she knows Irish Sign Language. Alot of signs are different then ASL but
some are similar so I am having her teach me and compare what we know. There
are a few deaf people in the ward and she told them I know a little sign,
so I sign very little with them but it is fun. They understand that I don't do
well.
So I
have three things I want to tell about. First, last p-day we went on a hike
along the irish sea. It was beautiful. It is somewhere near Bray I think? But
our cool investigator Sean took us. I have lots of pictures. It was a nice
sunny day and perfect weather. Today is more of a shopping and relaxing p-day.
We may go to the church and play sports with the elders. Then this past week we
went finding in city centre. We had a station set up about family history and
were encouraging people to come to our church to use the computers there for
family history. Sister Harris and I had a contest of passing out 5 pamphlets
first. It made it alot better. Last thing to say is yesterday I gave a talk in
the ward. It went well. I talked on covenants and them blessings that come from
keeping them. But the best part is, that after sacrament an older couple came
up to me and said that they are from Mesa, Arizona also. Had I nice chat with
them. It was a sweet blessing to just meet people from your home town. They are
here for a couple days and then going on a nice cruise. But over all this week
has been a great one. The work is moving slowly but moving nonetheless. You all
are the best!!!! I love you all and thank you for everything. This week I got a
package from patti, grandma and grandpa Nicoll and then from Cody also. All
full of sweet surprises. Being on a mission you begin to appreciate the same things
and absolutely love the big things. I love Heavenly Father and Jesus and I know
that they are mindful of us and want the best for us all! Hope all is well this
coming week.
Love,
Sister
Nicoll
