HI EVERYBODY!!!!
This week has just flown by! We took a long journey to a member’s house on Monday. The long trip was worth it, it was really good to get to know this member better. He told us about a lot of great miracles that had happened in his life.
On Tuesday, I went on exchanges with Elder Francis. He was born in South africa but has been living from Eissex, England. Like myselft Elder Francis was trained in Southport. He is a very good missionary, of course, only the best are trained in southport! He is such a great strength to the district! A strength I saw in him was his personality. When he introduces his family, he goes into detail. That was something that I hope to apply.
Something I realized is how vital the daily planner is. On accident I left mine in the library last Monday after emails. And I didn’t get it back until Thursday because I was on exchanges. If it wasn’t for sticky notes I would have been completely lost. The daily planners make a big difference in the work.
We had tea with bishop yesterday. He is a very inspired man! It was so good to get to know him and his family. He really respects the lords time. We offered to do service for them and he kept saying that he doesn’t want to cut into our time. We told him that we were encouraged to serve the members and he said there might be some service that we can do in the future.
Elder Van Tonder is a great missionary I’m always amazed at his faith and exact obedience. He is a “member work missionary,” he is always looking to teach members. Sometimes we do what we call member contacting were if we’re in the area we stop by a member’s home just to offer our help.
Things are going great here in stoke!

With Love,
Elder Ballantyne
