BOURNEMOUTH WEEK #5

Hello Everybody!

We have had a good week.  Not anything that is too exciting, but a few good things here and there!  One exciting thing we did was meet with a guy who asked us to come over to his place.  When we asked him for what reason he didn't really give us one but we went all the same and just sat there and listened to him talk for a full hour.  The two of us combined got in about 15 words so that was an experience to be sure!

It was great talking to my family yesterday for Mother's Day.  TBH, I didn't realize it was Mother's Day until the day before because Mothering Sunday (as they call it here) was on March 31, so there were no signs or cards to remind me.  But it was great to talk and get caught up.  I won't be calling today because I will be on the train for four hours heading to Birmingham to pick up my new companion.  His Visa finally came through and he should be arriving today from the Ivory Coast.  It will be an exciting experience to be sure.

We also had interviews with President Hughes this past week, which is always good.  He's an awesome Mission President and it's fun to be able to have a few minutes to talk to him in a more informal setting than usual.

We've also been teaching a boy in the ward who is about to be baptized.  The whole family is super awesome. When we had just arrived in the area the parents asked us to come and teach him so we've been going over and teaching him the basic lessons and it's been a lot of fun.  They are such an awesome family and he's getting baptized in two weeks so that will be exciting!

Love you all and hope you have a great week!

Hello Everybody! Sorry I've been absolute rubbish at sending out weekly emails this last transfer.  It's been a really good 6 week...
