Dearest Family,
This area is absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!!! And the people are wonderful. Well on Saturday
I was asked to give a talk in sacrament because one of the speakers
were not going to be there. They told me I could talk on anything I
desired but the focus was on Missionary work. Well missionary work is
hard but it is a lot harder to talk about. So I gave my talk the then we
did a musical number as missionaries. And it turned out really well. We
were able to get one of the less-actives to come to church and hear us
sing. He said that he would only stay to hear us sing and then leave.
But he stayed for the whole thing. It was absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!
We met Liz on a train home from widnes she was just coming home from Liverpool and she was exhausted. We just started talking to her and ended up on the topic of family history. She said that she did a bit but that she was stuck. I was able to share with her about how my family history has been traced back to her 100's with the church website. She said that she had heard of it but had not gone on it yet. We gave her a website card with our number on it and the chapel address and told her that we had people who would be willing to help her with the rest of her family history. We met so many wonderful people and it carried on into Sunday. Sunday night we were able to have 4 on the spot lessons in 2 hours. And 2 of those wonderful souls are potential investigators!!!!! It was so great to watch the spirit work on Abbey. She was just getting home from the hospital visiting a friend when we stopped to talk to her. She said that she was an atheist. We talked a bit with her and asked if we could say a prayer with her for her friend. She said that we could. After the prayer she had tears in her eyes. We asked if we could meet with her again and she said yes. She has such a sweet spirit that is just waiting to shine.
