Swindon Innit?

Hiya guys!

 

 

Was a great week. Super busy.

 

 

We decided to make a ton of cookies and then visit everyone to get that good relationship you know? Worked great, but there were a lot of people to visit.

 

 

We met our friend Glenn who is literally writing the entire Bible. Yeah. Handwriting it.

 

 

We also had dinner with a Brazilian family and they made the national dish for us to try: Feijoada. It was pork and black beans all cooked together (feet and all) with garlic rice, a vinaigrette and pork rind crisps. Oh and sprinkled with Farofa (cassava powder). I enjoyed it, although the Bones had gotten soft and I ended up eating a few.

 

 

Today we went strawberry picking and got a ton of strawberries! Was a great deal as well. But yeah, I am pretty exhausted this week with all the stress of sorting through the other Missionaries area and getting to know all of their friends. Things should start to mellow out now.

 

 

-Onwards and Upwards

But yeah, it was cool to teach a Welsh Pastor. Don't really see much happening with him though. We also taught Wendy again this week, and this time she cried when she shared about the Plan of Salvation. She is so sweet and humble, and we look forward to continuing to teach her. I pray she joins the church; she would be so good. On Wednesday, we had what I call "Old Person Game Night" at the chapel. Since our congregation is so old (average age of 60), we had an activity with really simple pub games, which included bowls, 9-pins ring toss, and darts. Surprisingly enough,...
