Hey everyone,

 

This week has been a bit crazy. This last Monday at the library I met a man named Jude. I met him 7 months ago when I first came into the mission in Liverpool. He moved to Wigan and hasn't changed much at all. He remembered me and we had a good talk with each other and caught up a bit. We would randomly see Jude all over Liverpool like 4 or 5 times.

 

On the way to a meeting on Tuesday morning I met a man form Angolia he was traveling to go see his mom. His name was Pedro and accpeted a Book of Mormon. The only problem, he lives in another mission. So hopefully he gets in contacts with the missionaries in the near future.

 

On Saturday we had stake conference we went up to Liverpool to be there. an Area 70 was there and took us out to eat afterwards. His son serves here in the mission. It was crazy hear about all the assignments an area 70 has to do. He travels to Germany and all over Europe and sometimes to salt lake to report on how this are doing over here in Europe.

 

I hope everyone has a great memorial weekend. It is bank holiday next monday. So I will eamil on Tuesday I love you all

Here is a bit more,

 

We had a less active member text us this week and ask if we could come teach him. He was baptised like 4 years ago, and his health isn't very good that is why he doesn't come out to church. He is from North Carolina and still has the accent he has only lived in England for 5 years. He is a really nice and I look forward to keep teaching Glyn.

 

So Sunday at conference we had a unique experience happen. There was a lady that got up after the choir sand the opening number and started to yell at the stake president. It was really weird when they tried to get her to leave she started to  yell get off me. I thought maybe she was just mad at someone taking her seat or something, but it was a bit more. They had 5 or 6 ushers escort her out of the building. Because of this I really didn't remember much else from Conference. I just kept thinking about this lady and hope she gets herself sorted out.

 

We have had a great week for weather. It has been sunny and warm. We helped this YSA with her garden on Friday, she has a 3 leggd dog. It kept trying to bite our hands while we were pulling weeds. I thought if that dog wasn't careful I was going to take it's other leg as well ;) I hope the weather continues to be good the rest of the week as well.

I am doing really well here in Wigan. Me and my companion Elder Sutton get on well and are working hard to help people learn about their secon father who loves them as well. There was a talkin in stake conference that talked out teaching children about who God is and how much he loves  us. That is how simple we should make the gosple when we share it.

 

I hope everyone has a safe week! Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend and hope the fishing goes well

Love you,
