Hey Dad,
It really is a beautiful place. It is pretty posh though
which can be good and bad. It is good because there is beautiful places to see
and it is safe, but not good because usually the poor people listen to us. Alma
32. And after Guernsey, I don't think anywhere will really compare. I really
have had amazing area's in terms of scenery. Except Slough.
I am still driving the car. I heard that because I went to
Guernsey I get another year in the UK because they have completely different
driving rules. So I will stick with that until a cop tells me otherwise. The
cops have no way of knowing when I came into the country either.
So I think I told mom everything already. The only thing
different I wanted to mention to you is that it has only been 4 days and me and
my companion have already had some disagreements. He was called as a zone
leader 6 weeks ago. And I was just called 4 days ago. So he wants to be the
boss and run the show. I am fine with that. But
honestly as far as I can tell him and his companion last transfer just kept
themselves busy with useless zone leader stuff and neglected any real
missionary work. They had found like 30 potentials in 6 weeks and taught 0
lessons and found no investigators. We talk about how if we do all that we can
it doesn't matter what results come. But seriously, if you put the time in
people always come. So I am a bit frustrated and I think I have been a little
bit too bold these last few days in trying to shake up our area and our zone.
Our zone had no baptismal dates and we were the least productive zone last
transfer. So that is what is really happening in the area and the zone. I am
going to learn a lot this transfer. I am really glad it is a 4 man flat so there
are other people around when we have a disagreement. But I really just wanted
to see if you have ever had an experience like this and what you did to resolve
it?
So far in my mission I have got along with every companion
and obviously have disagreements and no real problems. I really hope that this
transfer is no different. I think I will need to learn to humble myself a lot.
I'm sure I have something to learn. A lot to learn.
I'm excited to hear how Riley is doing.
Hopefully you have a good week and keep the swearing to a
minimun when doing DIY projects.
Love Elder Steed
