We love all of these Elders so much, and wish them well in all of their new adventures!!!  (At least one of them is already engaged....I'm not saying who!)

Just a few short hours later...we received this great group...

They all came ready and excited to go to work!!!  We're so happy to have them.

New Training Curriculum

We've received wonderful new training materials from SLC....helping us to refine our teaching, mainly by listening to the Spirit and by teaching people, not lessons.  The Elders who have received this training so far are very excited to implement it.  We did one session in Cardiff, and another in Sutton Coldfield.

Participants from northern half of mission...

We're so excited to see how these new methods bless our mission!

The top group there looks thrilled about the new training materials. :) I love that though... teaching people, not lessons. Awesome.

Elder Love told us about this training he really enjoyed it. He is totally motivated by the new direction things are going at this point.
Love to see these up dates, thank you.
