Hello family and friends,
Just so you know, this email is going to be short and
sweet. Newcastle is great! I am loving it!! It is massive though. I get lost
sooo easily. Our area has a university and their are quite a lot of students.
There are a lot of nationalities. Mainly Chinese. The Chinese sisters gave me a
Chinese name, which is Sister Jia. They also helped me construct this in
Chinese. 我是加姐妹 我是耶稣基督后期圣徒教会的传教士 (My name is
Sister Jia. I am a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints.) The accent here in Newcastle is quite unique. It is a mix of Scottish
and English. I will get some sayings for you all next week.
We are working with two investigators right now who are
working towards a baptismal date. Dean is scheduled to be baptised on the 26 of
March and Rob is going to be baptised on the 2 or 9th of April. It is quite
exciting! We have found some potentials this past week that we hope can become
investigators.
