Aye, it's been another canny week in Newcastle! Yes, my P-day was moved to Wednesday this week if you are wondering. This week I found a crazy connection with my ward mission leader, taught a Czech girl and a 20 year old English bloke, and witnessed a spiritual bomb at General Conference.
So first off, I discovered a really cool thing this week. I met our American ward mission leader here in Newcastle. We got together to talk about the hottest topic in the spirit world, missionary work. As we were getting to know each other he asked me, "Wait a second do you know Colin Holyoak?" And I said yeah he's my brother haha! He replied, "No way, I played tennis with him and I used to be in your ward man!" His name is Chad Nilsson and we were in the Parkview ward together. It's such a crazy small world!! I was right chuffed that I made a home connection with someone in the mission field..
I witnessed a spiritual bomb as I watched General Conference this week. I know that everyone is taking about it, but wow! A 20 year old man that we are teaching watched one of the sessions with us and he loved it! We haven't been in any contact with him since, but I have confidence that we will see him again. We also are teaching a girl from the Czech Republic. When she moved over to the U.K. she felt like she made God less of a priority in her life and she was wanting to bring back His influence... geehoo! That's the main update of the week. Hope you all have a good one as always, cheers!
