Haggis and Blood Pudding

December 3, 2018 

The week was good. Had a lot of rain. Walked around getting soaked to the bone most of the week, which was really nice. Walked around a lot with the other missionaries ‘finding’ and we always make it a good time cause usually people are harder in the rain. haha

The teaching is a bit slow right now because all the university students have finals right now so that’s fun. But its ok we are still working hard. Have met a lot of interesting people this week. The language is still hard but it’s coming. So there are only 10 of us in the mission who speak Mandarin.  Was told by a friend Jesse that my Mandarin is improving really quickly so that made me feel better.

A lady in our ward who is less active gave all us missionaries a food tour of Glasgow. Usually it cost like 95 pounds but she loves us missionaries. The food was so bomb. So much great food. We went all over to a bunch of fancy places. Ate everything from haggis and blood pudding, to deep-fried pizza and ice cream

Mom asked how my birthday was. Not gonna lie, it started off hard. But it ended up a good day. After all our work we went to the church to 'teach', but really my district was there and they made dinner and had a party. They raided our flat and cooked our food. It was very nice. 

Ray got baptized!! It was super cool. Thanks so much for all the prayers, he is a legend!  The most humble guy ever. Makes me want to be so much better. Super cool too, my comps first bap in over a year!! So happy.
