Dear Family, (Dad, Mary, Patrick, Tyler, Nana and Pappy, and Lindsey)

So this week has been really fun :) But here is a story I just have to tell you. So every Sunday, during the Priesthood lesson (last hour), this guy named Micheal comes in. (Micheal was found and taught briefly by the last 2 Elders here.) He has the look of a crazy man, big fluffy beard, wears this huge jacket all the time... you get the picture. So every week he comes in, sits quietly through the lesson and then questions people about our beliefs followed by asking questions about the doctrine he has been reading..... which would be fine if he didn't always pull out "The Teachings of Islam"..... :) None of his questions ever make any sense and they always relate back to the environment. I don't know if I am explaining this situation properly, but yesterday Elder Ah Mu and I went to talk to the bishop after church and he was left with Joan and Ann and Ian (recent convert, recent convert, and investigator). So he started questioning them and then brought out his newest book of ideas "Religions of the World" (a Jehovah Witness book). But it was really good - Joan pretty much shot down his crazy theories, testified of Christ and told him to pray about it! :) It was so good. :) Anyway, I will try to get a picture with him next week somehow. But all still goes well in England. Till next week...

Love,

Elder Tombs
