Monday, February 20

Hello there! Can it be Monday again already? Time is flying by!

This last week has been busy. We've picked up a few new investigators and some of those we were teaching have decided they don't want to be taught anymore... so that's kind of sad.

We were asked to help out with the stake primary activity on Saturday. We were asked to do a workshop on how to be a good missionary. It was fun. I have never seen kids so well behaved! I actually told them to stand up and do a little dance to get some life into these kids (no one would get up and do a little dance). I was so surprised! It went well though.

(At church) there was a visitor from Colorado who had served his mission in Liverpool 30 years ago... He was asked to talk and he spoke of how Liverpool was his first area and he got really depressed while trying to understand what the people are saying here. Afterwords I went and talked to him and it was finally someone I could relate to. He told me that two weeks after arriving in Liverpool he went to the mission president, bags packed, and said, "If the whole darn ocean was froze over, I'd be out there on a pair of ice skates. I want to go home!" He said that he understands my struggles and said the first 6 months are the hardest.

I got a French Book of Mormon!  I told my mom that maybe I could learn a bit of French that way!
