Sorry I realized after I got home on Thursday that I had forgotten to give you the address.

I am doing alright. We have a lot to tracking and street contacting that we do here. It is really good. A lot different from Chorley and Rhyl. The ward is really nice, but not very unified. That is something that we need to work on. I am excited. We are going to be planning a ward activity to see if that will help. There is a young women in this ward and she reminds me so much of Mady. It is crazy!!!! We went to their home for tea on Thursday. And she looks like Mady and acts like Mady. She even talks like Mady. It is unreal. I have a little piece of home here. Ya I am getting used to this area. I was able to find some of our tea appt. with out a map. Yes she was in Liverpool. The first time I went on exchange with her I went to Liverpool. But the second time she came to Chorley. There are only a few areas for Chinese speaking missionaries so they usually stay around them. She just came from Lancaster. That was when I was serving in Bolton those 2 weeks.

Oh I am so sorry. At least she got to finish her mission. She sounds like she was an amazing missionary!!!

I am glad that he liked the message. He really is my Hero. You are too. You have both been great examples to me. You have helped me become the person I am today and I will forever be grateful for that. I love you both so much and could never ask for better parents.  Thank you! I was so nervous. But I am glad that I did it.

Tell them all hi for me. Also will you tell Sister Brown that I have handed out both of her Book of Mormons that she sent. The people were really touched when they received them. Sister Clawson will be following up on them. Tell her thank you so much for them.

Tell me how that messages go in stake conference. I wish I could be there. That is so cute. Sister Embley and I were in Primary yesterday. Those kids are so cute.

I love you so much!!!!!

Love

Sister Ballantyne
