Dunchurch


I realized that maybe you don't really know what all I am doing all day long on a day to day basis. So maybe I'll give you some more full day stories like I did that one time with that really awesome day Elder Gull and I had in the summer. Unfortunately they're is no cycling along the coast here in Rugby. We are almost as far away from the ocean as is physically possible in this country haha. 

The other day we did have a nice cycle on a sunny day down to this village called Dunchurch. It was nice, I decided I liked it. Also this guy down there told me that there is dinghy racing at a nearby lake, so hopefully I'll have time to get down there sometime on P-day. When we first got into Dunchurch I went through a light that my companion got stuck at, so I pulled over. There was a lady they're painting a fence, so I started talking to her. (Because that's what we do as missionaries: talk to every random person we get a chance to). It was a little metal fence outside of a house there on the corner of the main square of the town. Apparently she and her sister bought the house and live upstairs, but they turned the bottom floor into a cafe and it is opening next weekend. Also BBC is coming around for the day to put them on some tv show. So basically we're going to have to go so we can be on tv. And get some really good food. And talk to loads of people about the Gospel. Its going to be awesome. 

The sisters had a baptism this weekend so that was really cool. It was this awesome guy named Rich from Ghana. He just showed up at church one day a few months ago. His testimony is way solid, I got to interview him for baptism. 

We were blessed to be able to teach a lot this week, but we are struggling to have solid people who will see us continually and progress in the Gospel. Julie is still good. She has a lot of stuff to work through but will keep coming to church. We just have to help her be sure that this is the way, this is what she has been looking for her entire life. Thanks so much to everybody for all your love and prayers and support. 

Love, 

Elder Seth Poulsen
