Hey guys!
This week has been great! I'm sorry you guys have had some cold weather, it seems to be a lot warmer here than back home. It's rained almost every day this week which I guess isn't much of a surprise but it was about 60 degrees yesterday and on Saturday.
It was exciting to hear all of the changes from General Conference. A lot of people bore their testimony on things they learned from General Conference in church yesterday and we had a good discussion on the changes in Elders quorum. In the Sligo branch the Elders and High Priests already met as one because of our small numbers.
Speaking of church we were able to get Ovis to come for the first two hours. We taught Ovis about a week or two ago but see him on the street all the time. He came to church before one time and likes coming to church if he is able to but is struggling to understand why we need to repent. So we are hoping to see him later this week on Wednesday or Thursday to share about the commandments. We haven't been able to visit with Kaya again but we are supposed to meet with her Thursday. We also taught a guy named Von who had a few questions like happens to us after we die and what is heaven like? So we taught him the plan of salvation and are hoping to meet with him on Friday. This week we definitely had prayers answered. Not huge ones but I am very grateful for the opportunity we have to communicate with our Heavenly Father. I know that when we do He will bless our lives and help us in those things that we need in His time.
So later this week we are going to be able to hear from President Nelson and Elder Holland when they address. We have to travel to Dublin for that on Thursday at 7pm. I am super excited to be able to hear the prophet address us again!
I hope you guys have a warmer and fantastic week!
Love,
Elder Calley
