Ahoy!
Things here are good. Pretty mental
week. Had three exchanges. Tuesday I was in Chatham, Thursday Ramsgate, and
Friday back in my old area Sittingbourne!
It wore me out traveling around so
much but it was fun! Most of the days we spent finding new investigators. I was
pretty stoked because I finished the Book of Mormon this week again and I have
been really eager to go and tell everybody about it. We met some pretty
interesting people. We met a man who believed that the second coming already
happened (??) There are some funny people out there!

It was good being back in
Sittingbourne as well. Saw some dear, dear friends. We taught one of their
investigators who is really solid. He went from drinking 12 beers a day to 0!
Amazing how the atonement can just totally transform somebody into a better
person. It is amazing to see that process as a missionary. He will be baptized
at the end of the month. Also, I felt really prompted that we should call an
investigator who I taught when I was with Elder Mongelli. Her number was still
in the phone and I rang her up. It turns out she lives in Ashford now! I think
we will be able to meet up in the next couple of weeks. God works in his own
time!
Also, I forgot to mention I woke up
Sunday morning and I my left ear was really deaf and hurt pretty bad. After
church we went to the NHS hospital and they sorted me out all right – two hours
of waiting for ten minutes of treatment. I may have hurt my ear drum. They gave
me some ear drops. Today I can’t hear very well still, but it’s feeling a bit
better. I should be all right. National Health was worth the experience
anyways! Pretty interesting. Not too shabby.
Love
you all!
