The General Epistle of Samuel (Easter is Coming!)

Well another week has flown by once again. It's crazy to think that March is on its way out. We just moved the clocks forward this Sunday so we are adjusting to the new time. It's nice to have some extra daylight though. People are less grumpy when we knock on their doors at half past seven.

The work is moving forward. Elder Claure and I are getting along quite well. After his first three days he said in amazement that he was learning so many new English words. I guess they don't speak proper English in Stratford lol. He is doing well and his English improves every day. Hopefully by the end of our time together He'll sound like and American ;)

We have a few people we are working with that are progressing. As well the church just came out with the new Easter video complete with special pass along cards. It's a great video if you haven't seen it yet it's on helives.mormon.org. Check it out! This new initiative is working well. Members are always more willing to share a video with their friends so we are hoping for the referrals to flow. 

I am happy to hear that everyone is well and looking forward to Easter. I hope that everyone's week goes well! Thanks for all the love and support. I love you all!

Love,
Elder Dalton

The General Epistle of Samuel (another transfer over)

Another transfer has come an gone in a blink of an eye. A lot of crazy things have gone on. Unfortunately Elder Tina'o is moving. I am sad to see him go. I have had so much fun serving with him and learning from him. My new companion is Elder Claure from Brasil! I am excited to have another Brazilian companion. It should be a great couple of transfers with him.

This week a lot of work was done. We were able to meet with a family that we haven't seen for a while. Gemma and Steve are great. They have been busy with work but thankfully after we sent Gemma a text on mothers day, they invited us over. Turns out they were talking about how they needed to start coming to church and that Steve needs to be baptised and their daughter as well. Then we sent them a text. Funny how that works out. We began teaching them and set a day for their daughter to get baptised. They are great and I look forward to working with them. 

We are gearing up for another church initiative this Easter. I think it will be similar to last year's "because of Him." This year it's #BecauseHeLives. I'm not too sure what we'll be doing. Probably lots of pass along cards to give out. We'll see how it goes. 

Well I hope that everyone has had a great week. I look forward to hearing from you all again soon!

Love,
Elder Dalton

correction: Elder Claure is from Bolivia 

pictures from our trip to Dover castle. I would show you pictures of the secret wartime tunnels but apparently they want to keep them secret so they wouldn't let us take pictures. Or it was something to do with copyrights. Either or.
