So me and Elder Wotherspoon (w-AW-ther-spoon) were having this conversation the other day: what is the difference between a ward conference and any other sacrament meeting? Is there just more business conducted or something of the like? That's cool that those guys are still bearded. I hear Sam is still rockin' the beard as well.
The ward is very good. The building is in walking distance (which was still a pain, since Elder Wotherspoon has been suffering shin splints). Church starts at 9:00, so we left at 8:15 and arrived just in time. The members are quite keen on helping us out with missionary work, which is a refreshing change. Only, I've never worked closely with a ward before, so...we'll see how this turns out. We already have two investigators that are primed for the water, we'll just need to go over the main discussions with them. I haven't been able to meet them very much (they are a mother and son) but the ward mission leader is close to them, so he will help us out setting up times and what not.
Do you go and visit Grandma and Grandpa often? How is Grandpa Van?
There is nothing planned as of yet for p-day. I'm pretty sure we'll just do the essentials today. We have a TV screen in the flat, so it's tempting to just stay in and watch cartoons. But we won't likely do that.
It seems we will have to be going to Belfast for our district meetings. That's a bit of a pain. Oh well, I can suffer a trainride every Tuesday. I must admit, I have lost 2 pairs of trousers lately. One of those was my black suit trousers. They ripped shortly after I had them dry-cleaned. So I will likely be looking into getting some new trousers.
Oh my heavens. West. Virginia. It seems I have found where in Northern Ireland there is a saturation of christian churches. Walking down main street there is at least 3 different protestant churches, and many more around the corners. Many are out proselyting on Saturdays and Wednesdays, as we are. It makes it very difficult for anyone to care about our message. It also means that there is a concentration of anti-mormons and anti-christs. It can be very, very taxing.
Well, anywhoseph, it looks like that's it for now. Enjoy these videos. One is Elder Wotherspoon being a goof, another is me laughing later that night, and another is us just enjoying the view.
Love y'all, bye.
PS, that isn't his real accent.
