Oh the blessed Green Hilly Land


Hello everyone :)
These are pictues of my friend Rikesk back in Liverpool, he will be baptized some day :) and my district
growing up in Idaho its not hard to imagine seeing your breathe at 8 at night on a early september day, but out here it really surpised me. It is very cold here. And its just beginning. But don't worry mom I have lots of jackets, coats, and hats to keep me warm :) Wrexham is alot smaller than Liverpool. I never thought I would say a 70,000 person town is small, but it is. we have 40 members in our ward. But they are the best ward. They brought investigators to church for us to teach. After our meeting, 2 ward members prepared us a lunch. They live 75 minutes away from the chapel, so they feed us at the chapel. They are super nice, and talked about serving a mission later in life. And our flat is right next to the chapel. We are in a biking area, so we get to travel all over on them.
On Thursday night, our first real night here, we ate at a members house. It is a elderly couple that have their two grandsons living with them. On of them has a pet boa constrictor, and I really hate snakes. But I held it. Yeah it was really scary and you all are probably laughing at me, but I faced my fears and held a snake.
I was reading my Patriachel blessing yesterday! Oh I love the counsil the Lord gives me. I know that he know me on a personal level. He knows what I'm going through and will go through. as long as I continue to trust in  him and know I can't do it without his help I will be great. In fact all our trials are preparing us to meet God again. I know the Lord loves each and everyone of us. as I do as well, Love you all
Love Elder Hammond
