Hey Everyone!
So found out that I am staying in Telford for another transfer! I can't believe that I've already been out a year! Time passes by so quickly when you are in the Lord's service! Also we found out on Monday that we are having a Mission Wide Conference! But this is the best part: We will be having Apostles of the Lord come to our Conference!!!! Elder Jeffrey R. Holland & Elder Russel M. Nelson!!!! I am so excited to meet these wonderful brethren! This will be my first time meeting and seeing actual Apostles in the flesh!!!! Our misson is truly blessed! Now I have to prepare myself spiritually to hear the message of these great men and be able to apply what I learn from them!
What a great time to be a missionary in this age! I count myself as truly blessed to be apart of this work! I love this Church and this Gospel so very much and I am honored to be His authorized servant in these latter-days! Take care for now and may the Lord bless you and keep you!
With Love,

Elder Terrence M. Taylor :)

Hey everyone!
Before I start I want the Mabry's and Rebekah Layton to know that I will write you all ASAP! So next week is another transfer down! I cannot believe how fast this transfer has gone! Life on a mission just passes by too quickly! Also if you are too lazy to write via snail mail you can email me at: terrencet@myldsmail.net
So last P-Day, our District went to go see the oldest Iron Bridge in the world which is in our area! It was pretty amazing! I love going to museums and famous sites! I love history and Great Britain is the best place for historians to go to! It was great to hang out with the district and just have fun with each other! Last week was pretty challenging though: so many appointments fell through. But that doesn't get me down at all; we went into our Area Book to call up Former Investigators and we set up an appointment with one of them this week! Talk about tender mercy! This week is going to be super busy but we love being busy; keeps us on our toes!
I've learned so much about scripture study this week; it gives me peace and understanding in my life! It is a great blessing that I am able to study the scriptures personally for an hour! It gives me hope that one day that I can dwell with my Father in Heaven and His Son Jesus Christ again after this life! I challenge you all to start reading your scriptures daily! I promise you as you do, you will feel burdens be lightened and your desires to serve God increase! These truths I testify in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
With Love,

Elder Terrence M. Taylor :)

Hey Everyone!

Hey Everyone!
So what a great week I had! Busy but so so good! Missionary work is just so amazing! So many great things are happening in Telford! My joy is truly full; I am a happy man!
So as you all know I had Zone Training and Interviews with the mission president! It was such an amazing experience that I had! I truly enjoyed being around my friends in the mission in this zone and also speaking with my mission president! Also I had a great time at the BBQ service that we did for the Relief Society! It was my first time BBQing on my mission! I truly enjoyed my time there serving others. Tomorrow we are going back up to Crewe for another Zone meeting and activity! I am totally excited for it! Helping others makes me feel so great, I truly have loved serving here in Great Britain
As a missionary, you truly feel the Savior's love for others and I can truly say that I love the people here in Telford; they are strong people who know what they want and strive to get it! I am grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ and His love for me and for all of God's children. What a friend we have in Jesus! :) Well I hope you have a great week!
Love,
Elder Terrence M. Taylor :)

Hi All

Hey Everyone!
Well Happy early 4th of JULY for those in the Good ol' US of A!!!! I love that holiday so much but its ok; the ward is having a BBQ!!!! They aren't celebrating that but in my mind they are!
So this week has been so good: Me and Elder Greaves went with our ward choir to sing at a interfaith thing going on in Telford! It was SO GOOD to see other faiths that still believe in God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ! They had a different way of praising the Lord but I enjoyed it! It is so amazing how people worship God in their own ways; it goes to show that there are still people out there who love God and Jesus Christ as much as I do! I was truly happy! Very friendly and a few actually asked us what our beliefs were and we bore our true testimony through the power of music! It was a great experience that I have had on my mission and will cherish it forever!
I know that Jesus Christ lives and that this work in which I am engaged in is true! I know that we can find true happiness in the Gospel of Jesus Christ! I love being a missionary and this I testify in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
Love,
Elder Terrence M Taylor :)
