It's been a while since my last post - just been really busy with a lot of things going on.  Have managed to continue sharing the gospel one way or another, however.  e.g. Saturday did some shopping and handed over  a Pass Along Card to the the Marks and Spencer's cashier, the Sainsbury's self-checkout supervisor who seemed particularly glad for being handed a card with Jesus' picture on it - and other point-of-sale people.  This is just a habit now.  I always check my wallet is stuffed with PACs.  Again I seem to be running out of PACs at home and need to order some packs at http://store.lds.org.

Last year a friend of mine from teacher training college days published a book of classic photographs documenting those years and I met up with him to celebrate his achievement.  It has been on my mind for some time now to send him a Book of Mormon.  This I did last week with a letter about it.  I hope to visit him in a couple of weeks in Somerset during a planned break - also to do some family history research at Gloucester Count Records Office.

There is no doubt that the Lord wishes the people of the Maidstone Stake to open their mouths better and more.  2012 promises to be an interesting year for transforming the members and for the outcomes of more invitations taking place in the area.  Watch this space!
