Bangor, Part 13

We've decided to turn our attention and our efforts a little bit. We are going by map and looking for inactive part-member families. We are currently helping two different individuals return to activity---one of them after 10 years of being inactive. We have gotten one referral from this approach so far. We are working closely with one of the ward mission leaders to this end. So I hope that will go very well. There's just been such little success from street contacting and tracting, so we're trying to be creative. 

No especially interesting stuff to tell about. I'm now avoiding some members who I know for a fact are talking about Infinity War, and what the post-credit scene is, and what the ending is, and such and such. I've actually just been considering having y'all just spoil all the movie endings for me so that I won't have to worry about it. 

The other day, it was raining quite fierce. Occasionally we would flee to the indoors, but whenever we did that the sun would come out and the rain would stop. And then we would go back outside and it would start pouring again. 

Aren't we a funny pair, you and me Dad? You love to teach, and I love to give talks in church! I gave a talk on how the Holy Ghost has been a companion to me in my life. It provided me a unique opportunity to remember all of the times in my life when the gift of the Holy Ghost has been such a boon to me. I thought a lot about my early school years, and about being ordained to different offices, and on my mission thus far and such. I'm an old missionary now, you know. With only a little over a year to go. I think I say it quite often, but I might say it again: I thought my biggest challenge would be getting along with my companions, but that isn't a very big challenge at all! I also get along with the members, though not as easily; I allow myself to be quieter around them. And the rest of the people...are a challenge. But we're getting there. I've still got about 13 months to get this right. 

P-day looks like it's gonna be standard. I might try and get some black trousers to go with my suit jacket. Although, I might be getting a little bit big for that one. Yesterday we got froaken stuffed! Stuffed HOOORD! And sent to our flat with a whole tuna casserole and loaf of bread. I love Bangor!!

And I love you!! Thank you so much for the pictures. And the love. And the prayers. Bye for now!
