Hello everyone!
Sorry I haven't been writing much, it's been hard work!
So we've had big news this week! A missionary has to go home early for visa issues.. So we're taking over their area. So instead of the 4 missionaries they've had for a bit here in Bury ward, it'll only be the two of us! Just like how it was when I was here last! Haha but we won't have the car because neither of us have licenses. So we'll hold off on the car for a couple weeks. But it'll make it a lot more exciting! We've got loads of traveling we have to do and it'll take lots of planning. Fun stuff! It'll keep us focused these last few weeks.
Missionary work is an interesting thing. It teaches you a lot and helps you recognize the Lord's hands more. The bishop was broken hearted by the loss of the two missionaries. It surprised me how hard he took it. He testified that the missionaries make so much difference and it brought a whole new respect for the calling of missionary. I know that God calls people to all sorts of callings so that everyone can be unified and working together. Missionary service has shown me that each calling is important and helps the work move forward. And only as members and missionaries are unified in that work can it be fulfilled.
Have a great week, go out and magnify your calling!
