This week has been crazy busy with us taking over the Sister's area! So in Wigan they had 4 missionaries here, then they downsized to 2. So we picked up all the people that the Sister's were teaching. So we have been busy working with them. One of them is dated for baptism on the 11th of July :) She is amazing we had 3 lessons with her this week. And we were able to have a member at each of them. She is progressing really well and wants to be baptised she was at church yesterday and we were able to teach her about tithing with the Bishop.

 

Caroline is amazing as well. We were able to go to her house with a member on Thrusday she fixed us lunch and we watched the restoration DVD with her. She said it was just a refresher for her. We then talked with her about her daughter Eilidh, Scottish spelling. It's pernounces like Hailey withouk a H. She is 11 and really funny. She came to a sports night on Friday with the ward. It went really well she is into basketball and football. She also brought her friend Brandon. He is the next door neighbor. Carline was talking to her neighbor and said how she had never got her kids baptised. The neighbor hadn't either. And in the car on the way home Eilidh said to brandon it would be really cool if her and him got baptised at the same time! They talked to brandon's mom she said he could be baptised! It is amazing to see caroline and her family come back so strong. They also came to a ward picnic on Saturday at a place called Haigh Hall. We were able to play games with them and other people in the ward and soak up the sun. I might have a bit of a burn. But you don't get that much sun in England so you have to enjoy all 2 good days of weather ;)

 

I got to go back to Liverpool last Friday. My companion had a meeting in Manchester, so I stayed in Liverpool with Elder Mwea. He is from Kiribati. And he had only been in the area for a day. So I lead out the area and went to the only place I knew. Sam Perrie's house. We stopped in and she gave us some drank and a sandwich. We talked for a good while then got some pictures and headed back to Wigan.

 

This week's weather has been really nice and warm. I have seen Wigan explode these past few weeks. I appreciate all your prayers! I feel great love from each of you! Keep strong and carry on the good tradition

 

Love Elder Hammond
