Stoke-on-Trent District Meeting


Monkey Forest

 We were so excited to meet the new missionaries serving in the Newcastle and Stoke-on-Trent area, so we planned a p-day activity at the Monkey Forest.  It was a fun day!  We love these sweet sisters.  Sister Lever, Sister Reimert, Sister Tholen, Sister Tuitupo, Sister Conlogue and Sister Zulueta.
 Elder Blunck hung out with the Elders.  Elder Gourratt, Elder Candland, Elder Llori and Elder Hebert.



 Love our wonderful Zone Leaders Elder Hebert and Elder Llori!


Hey that's not a monkey!

Tittensor-Our New Home

 Well, this is our new flat.  Home sweet home for the next nine months.



Goodbye to Wonderful Preston

We loved living in Preston and serving in the Preston Stake.  We have so many good memories there.  We love you all!  We will never forget the joy and love we felt there.  Preston is a special place!

Driving the Sisters to Their New Flat

 South Ribble used to be the home of a tank manufacturing Company.  Of course we had to get our picture taken by the tank!

Transfers Day Again.

 Sister Zhu, Sister Ranku and Sister Fewou are the best!
 Sister Pongi, Sister Fewou, Sister Ranku, Sister Zhu and Sister Leung are ready for transfers.  It is not easy leaving the places and companions that you have come to love.  We miss these sweet sisters but we too were leaving Preston soon to go to our new area in the Newcastle Zone.
 Sister Blunck with Sister Ranku and Sister Dunn.

 Love you Sister Brimley!  We will see you again at the Payson Temple!

Our dear friends!

Book of Mormon Class

 We loved teaching the Book of Mormon class!  It was so fun to get together with our dear friends Jade, Rachel, Arjun, Andre and Jordan.  We would study a chapter or two from the Book of Mormon and then have treats.  We also had the Elders and Sisters come once in a while and bring their new investigators with them. 
 Preston Chapel
Wake up Jade!  Look at that sweet smile.  Love this girl!

Prudence and David

 It s so hard to say good-by to dear friends like Prudence and David.  Prudence was so proud of her new headband.  We just had to take a picture of her wearing it!

Lunch With David and Lucille

We enjoyed a day at the Beautiful gardens in Wigan with David and Lucille.  We wanted to visit with them before we left Preston to transfer to Stoke-on-Trent.  We will miss them so much!

Beautiful Walking Path


Grey Friars Mansion

 We loved to walk on the trail that Elder Blunck named "The Pooh Forest".  It is so beautiful!

 Elder Tuivai is the best!  He is so sweet and humble. 
 Sister Lee and Sister Madsen.
We love you Elder Kissell!
