I feel like there was something funny that I wanted to put as my subject line, but now I can't remember

We had some cool things happen this week.

On Saturday I made a few phone calls asking people if they were going to be coming to church--one was an ex member named Martin who wants to come back--he has been meeting with the Elders here for a while, but but he hadn't been to church in 14 years. He said he would come. And then I called a lady named Becky who is a member, but also hadn't been out to church in years. We met her on Wednesday (I think) when we were out near the Town Centre talking to people. She came up to us and said she is moving soon and wants her new house blessed, and she also said she has been thinking about how she wants to come back to church. She also said that she would come.

Then on Sunday morning, they both came to church. It was awesome!

We have also met a few Chinese people to teach, which is pretty crazy because there are not very many Chinese people in Swindon. One has pretty good English, so I should be able to participate pretty well in the coming lessons with her. The other doesn't have very good English, so when we met with her the other day I was basically just sitting there listening to my companion teaching her in Mandarin. There actually is a chinese family in the ward here too though, so we will have some good fellowshipping for them.

Anyway, doing the work of the Lord is AWESOME. I love sharing the gospel with people.

I hope you all have an incredible week.

Love,


Elder Seth Poulsen
