> This week was probably the best week I have had so far in
> littleborough even though our finding was pretty low. We were able to
> teach Jordana and Caprice for the fist time on Monday, and they are
> great! We taught them again on Sat. and Jordana said she had received
> an answer that the Book of Mormon is true! We then took Jordana and
> Caprice to an investigator baptism in Rochdale. They enjoyed it, and
> the best part was after the baptism Jordana and caprice were both
> talking about their baptisms and asked if they could have theirs on
> the same day! We are seeing miracles!
>
> We had zone conference this week and it was Fantastic! President gave
> a training on prayer. It has really helped me to have much more
> meaningful prayers, I learned a lot! At this zone conference we also
> found out that President Preston is going to be the new mission
> president. He is from Ashton 2nd ward, so he lives within mission
> boundaries. It is very rare that Mission presidents get called to
> there home mission. He lives in the Ashton Stake and I am serving in
> the Ashton stake so I had the opportunity to meet him even before he
> was called to the EMM. He gave a training on using pass along cards.
> It was great I'm looking forward to serving with him.

> Elder Mecham is a great missionary! I'm grateful for the opportunity I
> have to serve with him and learn from him. It will be good to look
