Hello everyone,
Yes its Tuesday not Monday.. Yesterday was bank holiday so the library was closed. So I got the opportunity to go to the Preston Temple. It was truly marvelous. I got to do an endowment session. It had been almost 2 months since I had been in the temple. The longest time since I got my endowments out. It felt just like home. I know the temple is the house of the Lord. And he answers prays there.
Wednesday we went on a church history tour. We started in Liverpool where the first missionaries landed in 1837, on the Liverpool docks. Then we went to Manchester where the first person was baptized into God's kindom in England. It was great. When we were in Liverpool, we were at a museum and I was taking a picture of the Titanic. I dropped my camera and it broke. The zoom lense came out and the camera wouldn't even turn on. I took the battery out and try and nothing worked. So I said a pray and asked god to forgive me for my clumsyness. That I would put the camera away for the rest of the day and not worry about it. So I did. That night when I was taking the camera out of my bag, the zoom lense had went in. So I tried it and it worked. I started to cry. I know the Lord hears and answers our prays. I learned a valueable lesson. I know the Lord will hear and answer your prays as well.
Our investigator Jaroslav is truly a miracle. He has read the Book of Mormon twice in Czech. So when we are teaching and he is getting translation, he repeats back what we say and was giving more when we were teaching the plan of Salvation. He truly is prepared and understands the importance of baptism.
I am very proud of myself. I only found out last week that the Royal baby was born,.... almost a month ago. Yes I know its crazy I didn't know but we truly aren't part of the world. Is there anything else that I have missed world wide?
I love you all,
Love Elder Hammond
