Harry usually tells us funny stories about his experiences in the mission field. Or he shares his successes. He hardly ever talks about struggling. We always laugh that he's having way more fun than he should. So I asked him:
3. Tell me a story where you struggled somehow so I won't feel guilty anymore.
3. sooo, i'll make it short ;D in st albans, i worked in the poshest area outside London. ain't nothin' but rich English folks! i spent hours and hours street contacting in town center, tracting, offering service, sending out flyers, networking with local shopkeeps, having a little banner-stall thing we thought up to put in the local market, working with members and less-actives and part-member families... everything! well of course not everything, but we sure tried hard. and! never had a single new investigator past the first appointment for six weeks of hard labor! ;p but gosh darn, it made me real good for missionary work after that! :) blessings! goodness gracious, i'm grateful beyond belief for that time in my mission, taught me more than probably any other area. opposition in all things :)
