Hey guys!
So this week has been interesting. Elder Jackson and I have pretty much figured out where most everything is but we're still figuring out where a few things are. Motherwell's area is quite big. Motherwell is almost 35,000 and there is another town to the west called Hamilton which is about 50,000.
So not too much happened this week but we did go and visit a family in the ward, the Mitchell's on Saturday. They're a really good family. Brother Mitchell's mom, her name is Cynthia, is one of the investigators the previous Elders were teaching. She came to church yesterday too and seemed to really enjoy it. She seems to be taking things at her pace but knows that she feels something different when she comes to church. We're seeing her on Saturday. There's also another investigator named William that the elders were working with but he is on holiday in Hungary for another 2-3 weeks.
So as far as church went as a whole yesterday. It was good! We finally got to meet the ward and the ward in Motherwell is huge compared to Sligo. I think there were around 120 members at church yesterday. Everyone in the ward is super nice and just like Cumbernauld ward the bishop is the one who plays the organ during sacrament meeting. By the way it is an actual church building that we meet at. It's about a 25 minute walk from our flat.
I hope you guys have a great week!
Love,
Elder Calley
