November 7 Email

Dear wonderful people!

This week has been great! On Monday we went to a less active member's house to go see their haunted house that they made. They really outdid themselves. It was so good, probably the best I've ever seen in England and better than most  I've seen in the states. Afterwards, on
our way back we got a call from the president saying that Elder Chong was going to be leaving to Bletchley. So now he's gone and we are sad. :(

On Tuesday we had district meeting. That was fun. We also had a lesson with a less active member and his wife who is not a member. Their family is so much fun. They're all just crazy.

On Wednesday we took Elder Chong to London. That took forever. When we got back we went to go see a less active member. His name is Ian.  And just to put in context, Elder Chong's birthday is November 8. So Ian baked him a cake and wrote him a card. He barely missed him by a couple of hours. So now we have a really nice looking cake and no way to get it to him. Darn.

On Thursday we went and visited a less active member who is from Fiji.  The only reason why he's less active is because he had to take care of his mom and work long hours. Now that he has all this free time he can come to church. In the evening we went to institute. That was a lot of fun. We read about Nehor and Sharom and such. It was really interesting.

On Friday we had sports night! Yay! I love sports night. We played ping-pong and chair football. That's always fun.

On Saturday we had a service project where we cleaned up the graveyard of a local church. The church is at least 300 years old, actually way older than that. I'm not sure how much older though. After the service project we had a lesson with our friend Joseph. We had a really good conversation about the importance of coming to church...but he didn't come to church so we rebuked him.

On Sunday we had a cool miracle. While we were at church a family just walked right in and said they wanted to learn about the church. They went to Provo in 2014 and they were really impressed with the church.  And now that they live in Cambridge they found out that they live right next to the chapel. So they decided to come in on Sunday. Now we're seeing them on Tuesday. They're super cool.

So that was our week. I hope you guys all have a wonderful week. I love you!

Love,

Elder Warburton
