Roadtrips

 Had a few roadtrips this week. Our mission is going Zone Conferences missionwide that I am training at. We combine two zones per conference and there are ten zones total. Last week the zones were all really far away so we attended over zoom, this week however, one was in Exeter and the other in Wales, which are both only a couple hours drive. For that reason, Sister Gallacher lent us her car and we trained at both in person. In person as opposed to zoom is so much better. Everyone participates more and all the technical problems are far less of a worry. The drives were georgeous as well, driving here is much different, but I would almost say more enjoyable as well. Although I did almost turn into the right lane rather than the left one was, I had to back in the middle of an intersection...


After the conference in Wales we drove back to Bristol to pick up equipment and then went on the Bath (called so because of the Roman Baths) to film a video with the Digital Finding and Teaching Coordinators who are the sisters we work with frequently. The video went unbelievablely well. We were concerned no one would participate but we almost had the opposite problem. Here is a link to the video so you know what I am talking about! Off camera we spoke with dozens of people, gave out a good number of cards, got several numbers, and even found someone who really wanted to come to church! It was a busy day, we literally ate breakfast in one country, lunch in another, and dinner in the same country we started in!

Otherwise, the work here is going well, we are really trying to work with local members and leadership rather than just going off doing our own thing. So far it has brought many blessings. It is a true testament that the power for missionary work in the area lies within the bishop's priesthood keys.

Have a great one!
