7th Epistle of Elder Thorpe
Hello,
So to start off, well I must say we are all on a journey. I like to relate it to the Jaridites and the Nephites when they were both departing into the wilderness. On there trailing travels they eventually reached a land that was bountiful with many things. Would be easier to stay. They did not know the blessings if they kept going forward, but they saw what they had and we're happy. A lot of times we end up in these happy areas where we are fine without anymoreprogression. But really God does not want that for us. So we need to learn to see with a broader picture, crying to the lord and then
moving across the seas. At the other side of the seas is so much more happiness and success. This is what I love. Is this journey, the question is posed, What is your Journey, and how are you doing?
This week me and Elder Frazier well we celebrated his birthday on the 18th. That day we went out and ate at a chippie. It was elder Fraziers first time having Fried Pineapple. I grabbed some as well, because it is just good. Ever have a chance try to make some.
On Monday we went down to Wythenshawe Chapel. There we played sports like Football and Basketball (also it is Europe Football). We then had District meeting on Tuesday. We then had a wonderful meal with the Sheridans.
On Wednesday we went and saw our good friend Stephan who is someone learning more about the gospel. He is learning about the gospel. We are hopefully help him, he has a real hard background, and a hilarious sense of humor.
On Thursday we celebrated Elder Fraziers birthday. When we celebrated it we sang happy Birthday to him in the Book of Mormon class. Which
was really fun. Had a lot show up and taught a really good lesson.
On Friday we went and taught one of the people who is getting baptized this week. his name is Guy. I will send pictures next week. Which will be fun. He is really out going and friendly.
Saturday we celebrated mine and Elder Fraziers birthday with Fiona which was fun. We really enjoyed it and had a delicious cake. Always
good to go and see her. Sadly it may be the last time we have contact for a bit. Since she is going up to the Lake District.
Here is my week, have a wonderful one as well and bye.
