I have been transferred this week. I am now in Macclesfield this transfer followup training Sister Urian. She is from the Philippines. She is really nice and cute!!!! I also have Two other sister's staying with us for a week and a half. Sister Peters and Sister Hansen. Sister Hanson leaves and goes home in a week and a half d sister Peters is just visiting the mission. It is a lot of fun. I am sad to leave St. Helens but I know that this is where the Lord needs me at this point and time. Which reminds me the I am going to need to get a new suit case at some point this transfer. Because the one they bought me in Chorley is broken the wheels are shredded.

Thank you for the spiritual thought as well I have printed it out and i am going to take it with me.

 

When I left a lot of the members of the St. Helens ward kept telling me how much I have already helped. there are Less Actives that are coming back to church that have not been there in years just because we took the time to really get to know them and show them that we care about them not just to have them come back to church. I think that is what I am in this mission to do to work with less actives and to help them. 

 

One of the less active is name Collette Mann. She is great she as decided that she needs to quit smoking so she is. And the other day she told me that her son came up to her and told her that he was going to quit smoking with her because he thought it would be rude for him to smoke around her while she was quitting. They have been smoke free for almost 2 weeks.

 

I am glad that Candace liked her card!!!! I hope that she had a good birthday!!!! 

 

Thank you so much for telling me that. I really needed that . At times I don't feel like I am making a difference.

  

Thank you for the birthday wish !!!!! You are the best parents any sister missionary could ask for!!!!!!!!!!

 

I hope that Grandma Kathy is doing better!!!!

 

I am sorry that this email is so short. Not much time to day

 

But I love you tons!!!!!!

 

Love Sister Ballantyne
