MOVES: I don't really know why, but for some reason I have a 6th sense about moves call. I really felt that I would be going to Glasgow zone, so I was not surprised at all when we got the call.
CURRENCY: Still not really sure how much a pound is. Don't really know how much money I'm actually spending when I buy something.
FOOD: Pretty much the same, but no Boojum :(
WARD: We had Stake Conference yesterday, so I don't really know how the ward is. From what I have seen they're great. They have fed us every day we've been in Dumbarton. We had a proper Sunday dinner yesterday with about 15 people in this one family. It was great. They are really willing to help us.
WEATHER: It's a lot colder here. Today we are going to Glasgow to buy a new *waterproof* coat because it pretty much rains/snows everyday here. I will probably also buy boots because they get soaked through, so I'll need to alternate them.
COMPANION: Sister Davis is from Provo. We were in the same group, but in different districts in the MTC so we didn't really know each other. She also went to BYU last year. She's super fun.
DRIVING: We drive loads. It's super fun. It's not too weird driving on the other side. Roundabouts are weird though. I don't need an international license yet. I can drive on my American one for a year and then I have to take a UK test to be able to drive after that. My comp doesn't have an American license, so I'm the only one driving! It's fun. It actually feels pretty natural to drive on the other side (because you are driving in the other side of the car). We've been doing a lot of driving too. It's a 2 hour drive to Oban. Drove back from Oban. Drove to Glasgow (30 minutes) for Stake Conference on Saturday and Sunday. Driving to Glasgow today to buy a new coat. Driving to Edinburgh tomorrow for sister's conference.
MISSIONARY WORK: We have one investigator right now. His name is ____. Sis Davis found him two transfers ago and they could never figure out a time to meet with him. When they did, they found out that he had read the Book of Mormon before. He studied theology and has studied pretty much every religious book known to man. After they taught the first lesson he was like "oh so I just have to pray about it to know if it's true?" Before the second lesson he had read the Book of Mormon again and prayed about it. He received a witness and is now getting baptised on Saturday. We are super excited for him. I am grateful to just be walking into his baptism. He is quite literally the definition of golden. It also made me feel a little better about leaving ____ (our golden investigator) in Dublin.
Other than that we don't really have any investigators yet. We will be working very hard in the next couple of weeks to find new people to teach. It's definitely different than Dublin - a lot smaller and we have to chapp houses at night.
