Hello Family,
Wow, here goes the last transfer of
my mission. Interesting point to be at, but I feel good, really
good. Elder Zander is being transferred to Belfast Zone, and I'll be
getting Elder Martin. I hear he's new, just finished training so he'll be
about 3 months out. Should be good, I'm getting along fine with the ward
and the missionaries, it is all going fairly well. Glasgow has a very bad
reputation, most speak of it poorly but it really isn't too bad. It has
some dangerous places, it can be dirty and very poor as well but it has character
and the people here are generally proud to be from here. Glasgow has its dodgy
bits, but also some real beautiful buildings and history. We spend about
half our time in the poor bits, and the other half in quite posh and well off
areas. I like it though.
We will be baptizing Alinune this
weekend. He is from Malawi, he is 30 and studies Environmental
Statistics. Cool guy, quiet but real funny once I got to know him.
He has great faith and real intent and is prepared for his baptism.
Glad to hear you both got up, it is
always a rewarding thing to bear our testimonies. I do it whenever I can here. Next Sunday
is the last fast Sunday away from home, crazy to think about.
So there you are, things are better
than expected. They are on the up, and I'm happy. Looking forward
to work with Elder Martin, President told me he was a good, willing hard
worker, which I'm excited for.
Last transfer, here we go.
Anyway, thanks for
everything. Have a great week,
I love you, see you soon
Elder Merrill
