Tuesday we had a zone meeting and on the way back i got to see.... ELDER LEIVA!! i was so excited but our train had pulled up so i had to get on and unfortunately i couldnt get a picture or talk to him but i got to give him a hug. It was guy fawkes night so we had to be in by 5.

Wednesday we had to go on an exchange with the zone leaders and i ended up going to chorley 4 with Elder Bahr, we had our mormon.org hour and 2 appointment fell through within half an hour, also Elder Bahr got the car stuck on a kerb (curb) which was pretty embarrasing, then we had a tea appointment.

Thursday we exchanged back and had weekly planning.

Friday we had an exchange with the district leader and i stayed in Rawtenstall with Elder Tuioti who is the district leader. We went and saw one of our investigators and i helped fix his laptop for him. Then we went and saw his friend who has pet snakes and spiders yuck!

Saturday we exchanged back and went to go see our friend again.

Sunday we went again to see our friend but he wasn’t in so we went to go see a member and he also wasn’t in... on the bright side we got to see an american style mustang.
