Its good to hear from you again. This week went by so fast and there are so many great things that happened. I am so glad to know that everything is going great back home and that everyone is ok. Tell Riley I say hi and I miss him and that he needs to keep working hard.
This week I have been spending a lot of time in my personal study learning about the Holy Ghost. I was reading in the Book of Mormon about Jesus in the Americas when he tells everyone that the Holy Ghost bears witness of the Father and Him. That got me thinking about how Heavenly Father wants us to returt to live with him and tells us to listen and fallow Jesus Christ and Jesus tells us that we need to listen to the Holy Ghost to have a testimony of him. It really made me think how imortant the Holy Ghost is and now it makes me more concious for the promptings of the Spirit.
We had the Assistants come down for an exchange on Thursday and they were with us as we had our weekly planning and gave us a few great tips on how to use the time more wisely. It is always good advice when it comes from experienced missionaries like Elder Gallacher and Kersey. We also had a great day in the work as well. I went with Elder Kersey and I learned a lot from him. One thing I noticed from him was how persistant he was when having a conversation. I want to develope that over the next few months. I also got to know him a bit better and I am grateful for that.
When in Mostyn this week, Elder Eliason and I took a fellowshipper, who had just got off his mission in Canada, to a lesson with us. Unfortunately, the lesson fell through and we ended up tracting ou the street. We got into a home with Chris who is about twenty five and we had a very successful meeting with him. He is now a new investigator and he was excited about reading the Book of Mormon saying that he likes to read things like this. We are seeing him soon and I have a great feeling about Chris and his Desire to learn more.
Everything is great as you can tell in Wales. Elder Eliason and I are on Fire! I also found out that this area that I am serving in are the same streets that Dan Jones walked on preaching the Book of Mormon 150 something years ago. His wife is from Denbigh (sounds like Denby) which is right in our area and we have gone there a a few times. This place has so much history it is unbeleivable.
Well hope you have a great week and tell everyone I say hi.
