Hello All,
What another amazing week this has been. I guess the miracles just keep flowing in this amazing work!! We found 10 (count them 10) new investigators last week. We were teaching like mad. We also were able to get 82/21!!!! We have been running around constantly, and that’s why I am tired. I do need to take vitamins, but remember Mom I am not in a third world country; I can just go to ASDA and get some. I am sleeping quite well though and I am taking naps on our breaks (when we get them). We are working hard though, and that’s the important part. I am loving this time so, so much, and I am so glad that I am here.
The weather has been fun though. It has been raining here almost everyday. They first said that August was going to be really, really nice, but then they changed that and said that it was going to rain the whole time. The past two days have been really nice though, so we are hoping for the first prediction. That is crazy that you are getting a ton of rain though. I guess that that is good though. We have needed it for so long! I am used to rain now. I have a nice umbrella that a member gave to me, and I am all set. My black suit has gotten wet more times than I can count though. I have decided that I am going to wear my black one into the ground. I am never wearing my new one except for special occasions and my grey suit is going to be my Sunday/meetings suit. I figure that when I destroy both sets of pants in my black suit that I can just go to ASDA or Primark and get a plain pair of black pants. I only have what like 9 something months left, I have really lost track. All of my long sleeve shirts are dying rapidly. All the left cuffs are gone. I am trying to make them last, but they are a lost cause. I am going to go look at some shirts today, and if they are reasonable I might get 2-3. I have one that I found at the flat so that would give me 4 and I could deal with that. I have started to man up and wear short sleeve shirts more now. If it stays nice that is all I will wear for the next 2 months, but I doubt it!
3 Nephi 11 – It was a bit more than just baptism that he told them to do. He gave them the Authority to baptize, and that is the absolute Key!!!! With out the authority we have nothing. That is really what sets us apart from everything else. I am so thankful for that fact, and I am so grateful for the blessings that I have received from that authority!!! The Church is so true it's not even funny!
So you want to hear something way funny about Swine Flu….. until further notice the Europe Area Presidency have banned handshakes and hugs. How funny is that?!?!?! The Elbow knock is becoming big among the YSA and the fist pound is big in the youth! I think that it is all a big scare, but whatever I will obey. Me and E. Llaguno decided that if one of us gets it, then we are just going to infect the other one so we are both down at the same time, and we don’t lose a ton of time being sick at different times. I have been laughing about swine flu a lot lately. Everyone in our ward has gotten it, including the bishop!
Tomorrow is interviews with President and I am really excited as always. I love chatting to president, he’s amazing! We will be in Chorley all day, which is also way good. The temple is closed for cleaning right now, and they are doing a ton of work. They are ripping out the back to ponds and cleaning up everything. I didn’t know that you clean perfection, but you can I guess! Transfers are this next week, so I will not be writing until Wednesday or Thursday. I am not sure what is going to happen. I think that E. Llaguno is going to train, but that is just my guess. I could move, but I could also see us two staying together for another transfer. We will find out, but I will let you know of course.
I think that that is all. Know that I love you and am so excited to be here. This is the best place that I could ever be. I love Blackburn so much! Stay strong and keep studying. I started the Book of Mormon over again and I just started 2 Nephi today! I am almost done with the New Testament and then it is on the Pearl of Great Price, followed by the D&C!!! I love the scriptures!!!
I love you all so much!
Take care
Elder Neal
