Always Remember

Hi everyone! Cheerio! Hope the last few days have been grand. :) It hasn't been that long because of the P-Day switch, but a ton has happened since last Wednesday. 

To start off on a spiritual step though, I just wanted to talk about remembrance. This last Friday was Remembrance Day here in the UK, and so that word "Remember" has been on my mind a lot. Part of the tradition is having red poppies all over the city. Whether it be a pin, a bracelet, a wreath, or a sticker, as you walk through the streets of London you're continuously seeing flashes of red. The point of this is to remember those who have given their lives in the service of their country, and to honor their service. On Friday and Sunday they even dedicate 2 minutes starting @ 11:00 am to complete silence so that everyone can have the chance to ponder and remember those men and women, and the service they gave. It's inspiring, and it's incredible! I love it. :) Remember is a word we hear a lot though, at least it is if you go to church every Sunday. As I took the sacrament yesterday these words stood out to me: "In Remembrance of the body of thy Son...",  "In Remembrance of the blood of thy Son...", and "Always Remember Him...". It made me really ponder on how well I've been remembering the One. My Saviour & your Saviour, my Lord & your Lord. Jesus Christ. Every week we promise to ALWAYS remember Him! How are you doing? Well it's not easy with the world banging and pounding on the door, but I hope that I can continue to pay attention to the "still, small", but also powerful knock of Jesus Christ, and fulfill my promise weekly to remember Him always. 

Sister Zeng and I took a trip to China Town this morning to buy ingredients for Hot Pot (aka really hot, and spicy traditional Chinese food). Wow, was it delicious!!

M--- is doing well! Honestly, he really is one of God's elect. I'm pretty sure he answers my prayers more than we answer his. He's amazing!

Our friend Ben. He's always on time to appointments. ;)

We found Croft House! Home sweet home... well, almost. ;)

Last little heads up. #LIGHTtheWORLD is coming soon! I know it sounds crazy... but Christmas is coming soon. I just saw this year's video, and it is beyond inspiring! Gives me chills just thinking about it. So keep your eyes and ears open. It's going to be an amazing Christmas season full of service, and becoming more like the Saviour! 

Family and friends have a wonderful week! Love you all!!
