Well, things have been pretty crazy on my end, sorry I wasn't able to E-Mail you all yesterday but I have now been transferred from Altrincham to a place called Barrow-in-Furness and am now serving with an Elder by the name of Di Iluio. I have to admit that I felt pretty bad having to leave my old area... but I know that the Lord has need of me elsewhere and now I will do all I can in this area! I also have some really bad news I DIDN'T GET ANY OF YOUR E-MAILS! This Library is not nearly as posh as the one in Altrincham and one of the computers wrecked havoc with my E-mail account! I've been able to fix everything, the problem is I just don't have your E-mails, so if you still have them I would love for you to re-email them to me so that I can know what you're all up to. Unfortunately I was going to make this my 'fun' Email and show you all some really great pictures but these computers just aren't cooperating and now it would seem that we are running out of time so I will have to be fast. My new area is AMAZING it is what England is really supposed to be like. Barrow is just a small town next to a lot of other small towns and villages so there is a great deal of farm and grazing land around, it is lush, green, wonderful, and apparently it doesn't rain as often here as it does in Manchester (I haven't been rained on once!). We live right next to the coast and fairly close by is a submarine factory were they build nuclear submarines (you know the kind that have a nuclear reactor and shoot nuclear war heads!) How AMAZING is that! The people here are 'unique' (I guess that just comes with living in a small town) but I love them and already me and my companion are beginning to see some great success! As for my
companion if you couldn't already guess from his name he is from Italy and has been out for about 18 months; he is a really nice guy who genuinely cares about the work and I know that we'll get along just fine. Overall this area is amazing and all I can really say is that the Lord really does bless those who have Faith in him. Every chance I have to pray I ask for that Faith, for that charity that comes from truly knowing that Jesus Christ is our Savior and redeemer. Please, if there is one thing that you seek for from our Heavenly Father please beg him for that! Pray unto the Father with all the energy of your heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ. I love you all so much and I am so grateful for the love that has filled my heart as I have served my brothers and sisters.
Love you all,
Elder McKenna
