Bangor, Part 7 - March 18, 2018

This was the last week of the transfer. The Bangor 2nd area has been shut down, and now there is only one team in Bangor. I am staying in my current flat, but Elder Wotherspoon has been moved back to Scotland. My new companion is Elder Ivan Baklan, from Ukraine. He is the district leader. I've already been on exchanges with him, but now we are companions. He speaks perfect English, with a Ukrainian accent. He has a girlfriend of many years. He was a dancer back at home (ballroom dancing with a partner in competitions and such).

From now on, we will be attending 1st and 2nd wards on Sundays. I think we will get more teaching opportunities between the two of us now. So it is actually exciting. And now between the two fantastic wards, we have a dinner appointment for almost every night. Why, we have one tonight. Oh, and I must admit I don't remember what my talk was on, but I remember that I wasn't very impressed with it. Ah well, if the people like it so much then that is up to them. 

That man we found, Pat, we invited him to church during the week, but he didn't turn up. But later that day we found out that he did turn up, but only to the last hour of the 1st ward meetings. So I thought that was cool. Plus, we are teaching a younger couple named Chris and Elliot tonight. I've already met with them before on exchanges (they are in what was the 1st ward area). This is gonna be fun!

That is sad that Buddy passed away. I always just knew him as: the fat horse. He will be missed. How are your horses doing? Magic and...that other one. I don't recall ever hearing the name of the other one. 

Well, this is going to be quite the month, with so many birthdays. I want to send a package with a few knickknacks in it, but that will take some figuring out. 

The last time I checked, I was about an even 6', and about 245lbs. 

I should have some pictures next week to send you. As of now, the USB port isn't working and we only have the one computer. 

Love y'all! Bye!
