March 25, 2009

We got an e-mail from Brett on Wednesday, March 25th instead of on Tuesday the 24th because there were transfers. He said that he's staying with Elder Hart for another transfer. He also said that this transfer is only a 5-week transfer instead of a 6-week transfer. So in about another 4 weeks there will be transfer news again! He said that out of the Zone Leaders in his flat, Elder Mouritsen is staying and Elder Gee (pronounced G), the British Elder in the flat is leaving. They are getting an new ZL, Elder Wells from Arizona. He said "it will be one great time!"

Brett said that he and Elder Hart and are still just as good as usual. They have two projections for baptism in April. One is an older gentleman named Tom who is 57 years old. The other is a young lad by the name of Jamie and he is 10 years old.

He said he got both of the packages we sent for his birthday. We ordered a watch for him because the one he had doesn't work anymore. We also sent an envelope with a tie and a CTR ring and some other things. He said that he wears the ring, but that it took some time to get used to! He also got the Tesco delivery all right. Tesco is a grocery store in England. We can go on-line and order food items and have them delivered to Brett's flat. He said that he left plenty of time so he wouldn't miss the delivery. (Last time we ordered he missed the delivery). He was home an hour early and it came right at 8:30pm, a half-hour earlier than the 9-11pm time slot we'd picked! He made and ate the "birthday cake" carrot cake we'd ordered and said it was good. He also said that he slightly burnt the bottom, but that it still tasted wonderful! He forgot his camera today when he e-mailed, so he promised to send pictures next week. He mentioned that he also got a package from a friend that was filled with pictures and goodies as well. He was very happy about that!

All in all it sounds like he's happy and doing well.
