Hello
Hello,
Hope you all had a good weekend, I
sure did!
Elder Kopischke and I had a great
time teaching and finding over the weekend.
We are teaching a friend of the
Stake President. His name is Brett and he is one of the nicest guys I have ever
met! We helped him move a shed in the stake president’s back garden and got to
talking. We invited him to take the missionary lessons and he said he would
love to! We taught him on Sunday and he knows quite a bit about the church, and
said he would be baptized if he feels the spirit. I'm well chuffed about him.
He is a star.
Also we had a lesson with a guy we
met who used to live in the States. He has a friend who is a mission president
in Uruguay. He just got back from there where he spent two weeks with him. He
said he was very curious to learn more about our faith because he really felt
good as he went to church meetings even though he does not speak Spanish. We
are seeing him this week again.
The flat here in Ashford is nice. I agree with the way Elder Kopischke explained
it – “it’s just enough” – just big enough to house both of us. Especially the bathroom and shower – they are
pretty tiny.
The ward here is great. I am really
happy to be working with them. They are very supportive and really help us to
bring others unto Christ.
We had a district meeting in Deal on
Thursday. It was fun driving by Dover again and seeing the cliffs. They look
very lovely around this time of year!
I’m happy to help the other
missionaries as well. We have 2 or 4 meetings this week with them and it will
be fun to work with them and go on exchanges.
I am happy to be serving here. I’ve got
about 9 weeks left and I just want to love everybody into the Gospel. I am sure
I will see plenty of miracles between now and June.
Love,
Elder
Purdy
