This weekly email will probably be pretty short even though lots changed.
My companion is now Elder Campbell. He is awesome. I have already learned so much from him and I am excited for the work we have ahead of us. We did tons of knocking doors and talking to people on the street since we don't know anyone in our areas and missionaries haven't been there since about October.
We found one man that is willing to meet with us this week. We met him Sunday night as we were about to go in and we decided to knock one last door. His name is Fero. We met lots of people who were flabbergasted that we could speak Slovak and some reactions were hilarious. We still live in Rotherham temporarily and Elder Eberhard is the other new lad. He lives with us and Elder Armstrong and he is so funny. I love both the new Elders.
Elder Peck is gone, and it still stings, but it hasn't fully set in.
The Lord has been so kind to us as we have tried to be diligent and obedient. In the past, the missionaries were not very welcomed by the Islamic population and it caused some issues, but we have been very blessed and I am excited to keep going. I have seen repeatedly that if we do what God wants, he will make miracles happen.
Love you all,
Elder Pace
More details about his new companion: My companion is Elder Campbell and he is so cool. He loves soccer as well, but watched basketball so we get along fine with that. He loves the people so much and has a fire from the gospel. He is a convert of three years (one sister joined but parents are not members) and he is so willing to share his experiences with everyone. He is diligent and has been a trooper through our long days of finding in these new areas. He has tons of faith in these people and in the Lord and I am so excited to work with him.
