Mum,
First off, Elder Shumway says, "Thanks". Secondly, I didn't
get anything stolen. It was the car that got broken into, not our
flat. We had gone down to Middlesbrough to give a baptismal interview
and when we got out to the car we realised that the someone had gotten
in and stolen some things. We're not sure if they broke in or if we had accidentally left the
doors unlocked. The things that were stolen were a GPS belonging to a
sister in the zone which we are replacing for her, and Elder Shumway's
wallet and camera with all his pictures from his whole mission! I had
all my stuff on me and I always carry both my camera and wallet in my
pocket. So that's all what happened but things are already turning
out for the better. After we cancelled all the cards and such we had
to run to some appointments. When we started talking with our
investigators it turns out that all of their government support has
been stopped for like 2 weeks. So all the families were stuck with no
money for their kids and such. Things are being worked out but then
as we drove away me and Elder Shumway were talking about how it kind
of seemed like it was meant to happen. I always double check that I
have locked the car and in appointment even I'll go make sure it is
locked. We had split up for the interview and for some reason I had
given Elder Shumway the keys when I got out of the car. That never
happens! So maybe it was the Lord's hand somehow, we'll see. As far
as all the pictures go we realised that every single one of Elder
Shumway's companions is still in England so we called all of them and
they are going to put all their pictures on cd's for him. Also our
family we are teaching used to live in Middlesbrough and he said that
he can find out if the stuff has been sold to any of his friends.
It's been kind of interesting that way. Plus spending all day at the
police station the last couple of days it has been a pretty eventful
week for us! Haha. But things are really fine. We just wondered how
much money was on my card so in case anything happens I don't take too
much out or something, it should be fine though. So ya that was
pretty much what happened. The family
all came to church and they loved it at usual. Lee and Kate came to
tea with us and they had a good time, I love them so much. They are
getting married this weekend!!!!! I'm so excited and things are
really coming together, I love it! So these next two weeks should be
pretty exciting! Thanks for everything mum, I love you so much! Have
a good week!
