Hello,
This week was pretty good. Last night we were able to have a lesson with Shannon a former investigator. He told us that he is ready to progress. We set him on date for the 14th of May. He is excited. But probably not as excited as us! He has a son that is 7 years old as well, that turns 8 during the summer. Hopefully by then it will be a child of record baptism.
Also last night while we were finishing up, we were walking home and saw an ambulance in front of one of our recent converts house. We asked what was going on but they wouldn't tell us. But she was admitted to the hospital. Her name is Linda. She is the sweetest lady I've met so far on my mission. She is 50 something years old, but has a lot of health problems because until about a year ago she was a chain smoker. It's pretty cool to hear her stories about her conversion. So if you would keep her in your prayers for us that would be great!
This is the beginning of a new transfer. Elder Trounce and I are staying together for at least six weeks. We are really starting to see our ward pick it up a little bit. They are liking the "What's Next" thing that we are doing. And they are starting to like us! Things are starting to turn around in the Winchester, Murrieta ward.
Well we are gonna go play football now so I will talk to you all next week!
Love,
Elder Miles
We sent him some new tenny-runners for his birthday coming up April 21st! Should've asked him to take a picture straight on....you could customize the label at the top of each shoe & we had them say "ELDER" and "MILES"...if you look close this left foot has the MILES on it:)
We love NIKE! Thanks Nat & James for helping us get them ordered & shipped!! And Thanks Brian for being such a great BIG BROTHER & letting us have such great perks!!:)
