Hey guys, its so good to here from you!
This week seems to have began so long ago. So our Zone
Conference in Dublin was fantastic. There were some great devotionals and talks
given. I also did happen to take some pictures.
Doors to the Guiness factoryInline
Statue of someone in front of a building
Spire in Dublin City Centre
So the rest of this week has been good. We were able to meet
up with Dinesh again this week and he has a date set for May 27th. He is really
good. He seems to have a lot of interest but he does not have a Christian
background. This week we went to Sister Porter's again to help her clean up her
backyard and garden. The rest of this week has been a lot of finding. Speaking
of finding we had an interesting conversation. We were at this one corner and
out of the blue this elderly lady approaches us and asks if we were Jewish. We
told her no, we are Christians, to which she then asks what monetary system we
use and wanted us to teach her about capitalism. As the conversation goes on
she turned out to be pretty crazy. We had to use the fake call function on our phone
to get away. The funny part about this conversation is that behind the lady
there was a car parked that was behind the lady and facing us. They were trying
to mime to us about what this lady was talking about. They stuck around to
listen to the conversation and seemed to get a good kick out of it. That was
the weirdest part of my week this week.
That's so cool that Brandon is going to Paris!!! Wow! I'm
sure that will be awesome for him!
That's cool that the Self-Reliance program is going on back
home. We have had that over here for a while, or at least since I came to
Waterford. It seems like a really good
program. It is something they have put some stress on over here.
So, I do not have any new Irish words but I did learn from
my companion of a Scottish word, Minghim,
(not sure if I spelt that right) that it means gross or dirty.
Hope everything is going good back home. Things here in
Waterford are going great.
Love,
Elder Calley
